I have an Ibanez BTB-676 for sale with some nice and pricey upgrades.

Basic spec:

  • 35 inch neck scale provides superior articulation. Perfect for low tunings, 6-strings
  • Neck-thru construction and deep cutaways make for effortless upper fret travel and expression 
  • High-tech Neutrik locking jack
  • 5pc BTB6 Maple/Bubinga neck-thru
  • Walnut/Light Ash wing body
  • Rosewood Fingerboard with pearl dot inlays 
  • Scale: 889mm/35 inch
  • Width at Nut: 54mm 
  • 24 Medium frets 
  • MR-2 bridge (17mm string spacing)
  • Neutrik locking jack socket
  • Weight: 4.7Kg

I have replaced the stock Bartolini MK-II pickups with US Bartolini classic bass humbuckers (H66CBC) and the Ibanez preamp with the 18V US Bartolini NTMB 3-band preamp with active/passive and 2 mid frequencies via push-pull mid control. Needless to say these two upgrades make a massive difference - not only is the EQ very powerful, but the evenness, response and depth of tone is like night and day. Just tweaked the setup and fitted new DR Hi-beam 30-130 and it sounds immense.

Given these were around £800 retail and the pickups and preamp cost £365, I think £500 is pretty reasonable.

Sale only.

No packaging or case so collection only.

I’m based near Woking in Surrey, just PM with any questions. Photos were taken before pickups were replaced.

How this hasn't sold yet with the Pre-Amp and Pickups mods I honestly don't know... I keep looking at it wanting to buy it but I know I'll enjoy it for a few months then just move it on after... 

£350 for all of this is great money.

Probably the lack of postage but unfortunately I have neither a hard case nor packaging and am not prepared to ship in a gig bag as no courier will insure a bass in a soft case. Ah, well!
