Ibanez bass

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.

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.

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;
