The Burpster Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 looks very nice to me. As to it being worth the dosh------ Ibanez are rarely overpriced for what you get in fact normally the opposite is true. So if it fits and it plays nice for you, try it.

Guest MoJo Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I've never played a bad Ibanez. I once owned (and wished I hadn't sold) the SRX700. Output from the pick-ups was massive and the sounds available very useful. If I could pick up a SRX705 at a reasonable price I'd snap it up straight away. The 305 is a seriously underrated bit of kit. Buy it, you won't be dissappointed. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeS Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I tried an SRX 390 (4 string) the other day and I was really impressed, very easy to play (especially being used to a "tree trunk" Warwick neck). Great value basses IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD1 Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Been looking at an Ibanez maybe as a back up bass. Tried a few at local shop. BTB (think it was a 555) was seriously good for the money and sounded great - Bartolinis and a 3 band eq with variable mid for under £400. Easily good enough to be my main bass let alone a back up. Tried an ATK 5 string which was also nice but string spacing was a bit tight for me and the EQ not as versatile. Ergo was also excellent - more of a J vibe. They just seem to have quality and value nailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyonbass Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I have a BTB 405 as a back up, and its a seriously good piece of kit, excellent spec for the money and very versatile. I wouldn't hesitate to gig with it [attachment=2530:ibanez.JPG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lfalex v1.1 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I own an SRX700 (and I'm not selling it!) and an EDB600, the Luthite one. They're both excellent (for the money) The EDB cost £80 secondhand. The SRX was about £450. The EDB has the better EQ, the SRX the better pick-ups. both play really well (with a bit of nifty setting-up from yours truly) Good string choices; Elixirs (as fitted from new) DR Marcus Miller FatBeams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmurf Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Liked my SRX390 so much I sold my P-bass! Loud and light as a feather with a fast neck - excellent! Got mine from Merchant City Music in Glasgow - £290. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
