PaulThePlug Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Loves the SR's... Good job i haven't a clue with a 5 string! Inc Bridge and Tuners... Just needs Pups of your choice, couple of sets of Jazz 5's in the FS.... Teslas @£45! and a pre if not going passive. Already stripped for Action... Bargain!

tauzero Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 Oh well, that's another project on my pile... Quote
PaulThePlug Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) @tauzero... Now SOLD @ £65.. You?.. Nice! Edited February 9, 2023 by PaulThePlug Quote
tauzero Posted February 9, 2023 Posted February 9, 2023 I'm hoping that the pickup holes are the right size for at least one of the sets of pickups I've got knocking around. Not sure if I have a preamp, I thought I had but couldn't lay my hands on it. Quote
Bassassin Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Headstock & body proportions don't look right for an Ibby. Likely one of the numerous similar basses that were around when SRs were new & exciting. Looks like the basis of a cool project for £65. Quote
lemmywinks Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 (edited) It's an abandoned kit bass project I think - headstock gives it away, not a bad score. Similar to this one but with a slightly different control layout: https://kitbuiltguitars.co.uk/guitar-kits/5-string-bass-sr-style-diy-build-your-own-bass-guitar-kit-kbg-5sr-a/ Edited February 10, 2023 by lemmywinks Quote
tauzero Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 Yes, I think that's what it is. Neck pocket is loose, tuners feel quite nice. It joins the project pile. 1 Quote
