Ibanez SRH500F Semi Hollow Fretless Bass-Mint Condition - *SOLD* £480 Inverclyde Scotland

[2pods]

As it's one in, one out now, my lovely Ibanez SRH500F has to go.

It is really in mint condition, having been bought last year, played in our non smoking home only.

 

It's a semi-hollow, fretless Soundgear with a bridge with individual Piezo pickups built in, along  with volume and tone.

Side dots are where they should be for a fretless, and offset fretboard markers at the top side of the bound Panga Panga fingerboard, which is also lined. However the lines are black, and I can't see them unless I'm looking for them. Belt and Braces ?

Body is Okoume, with a Spruce top, with a contoured heel and arm rest. Neck is SRH45pc Jatoba/Walnut with a width of 38mm at the nut, and 62mm at 24th fret.

 

It plays great, with the supplied D'Addario ECB81-5 Flatwound Strings and Ibanez's AeroSilk Piezo bridge doing a great double bass sound, and there's Mwah if you want it. Individual string Piezo volume can be adjusted on the back of the bass

 

It didn't come with a case, but I bought a really good copy of the Ibanez case that comes with the Premium range, and I'll throw that in with it. Price is currently £699 new @ Andertons with no case, or bag, just a cardboard box. So hopefully, given the "as new" condition, and including the case, I'm in the right ballpark.

I'm prepared to post, as I have a couple of bass boxes, but only at the buyer's

postage and insurance expense. Paypal, bank transfer (must be showing in my account), or cash on collection.

Any questions, just ask

These are ace - I have the same one, mainly used as a rehearsal instrument instead of dragging a double-bass along. With the string height raised slightly to reduce the mwah, you can get a quick decay woody tone that works in a band setting, the stock strings are still going strong after three years.

Love that!

I had one of these, albeit the fretted one, and let me assure you the quality is great. It's a lot of bass for your buck. Were it not 450 miles away I'd be very seriously tempted. GLWTS.

Can post it, if I can arrange some insurance ?

Parcelforce and most others will only insure musical instruments for loss, not damage.

Even then it's only £100.

 

ISTR one of us getting separate insurance from some one other than the carrier, so I could look into that. It will be very well packed either way.

Also willing for buyer to arrange collection at their own risk, but it will be very well packed.
