If I thought for one moment that I'd use this as much as it deserves, I'd snatch your hand off.

As it is, have a bump on me for a great bass.

Thanks for the bump Phil! I bet you'd find that this is quite the seductress. You would probably ending up using it way more than you thought you would!

No one at all interested? Price is negotiable!

little bump!

EDIT: PRICE DROP: £500
Edit: This is also being offered for sale on consignment at the Bass Gallery.

Hello Everyone!

I'm offering up my Ibanez SRSC805 in Deep Twilight Flat finish. The bass is just over 1 year old, I bought it in April 2018 and it has served me well, but I miss having 6 strings. So, I'm selling it to fund purchase of a 6 stringer. The bass has not been used heavily, but it has some minor, discrete dings. I've been using it averagely 4 times a month at church.

This bass will not be sold with a case. 

I will not ship this bass. Cash on Collection from me in Uxbridge, may be able to meet and deliver in London (within reason, since I don't drive).

Dings: 1) on the underside edge of the body, where the guitar makes contact with the thigh.
             2) Headstock logo has a minor flaw

I tried to capture these in the pics.

This is not being offered for the UK market anymore, so here's a link to Ibanez's USA website for you to see the specs: https://www.ibanez.com/usa/products/detail/srsc805_1p_03.html . 
Please message me if you're interested.

I was on the fence regarding this one, if whoever bought it decides to move it on!

 Its new owner is someone from Basschat, but I think the only way you'll get that is by prying it out of his cold, dead hands! He really likes BBs and he really, REALLY likes his new acquisition!

SOLD!

This lovely BB is now on hold for a potential buyer who's coming to check her out tomorrow.

fretmeister, it's very light but can pump some serious volume and tone, one of the lightest and easiest necks on a 5 string I've played, and I've really small hands, beautiful bass and an amazing price, I'm not on a commission by the way, lol

Thanks for the great PR, GroovyPlucker!

Do you have an accurate weight for it please?

Hi fretmeister! Unfortunately I don't know the exact weight of my bass and I don't have easy access to a scale to check it for you. However, on the website www.sweetwater.com there's are three Yamaha BBP35 basses; 2 with their weights listed as 10lbs and 1 with its weight as 10lbs 3oz.

 
The only difference between the BBP35 and the BB735a (which is the step below it) is that the 735a has the preamp installed, while the P35 is passive. Other than that their specifications are absolutely identical from what I read on the Yamaha website.  So based on that I think we can safely estimate it's weight to be somewhere around the 10lb mark.
 

Price is now £550! 

No one wants to give this a new home?

I saw this on the Gear Exchange group! I tried a BB435 myself at the Yamaha shop this weekend, never played one (except for an old 80s fretless) before and was really impressed by it.

This one doesn't seem to have the extended bridge bit for the B. Is it still a 34"? At a guess the other BB's must be 34.5 on the B, just out of curiosity

This really is a stunning bass and funnily enough I almost got that SRC805 at one point. If only!

Hi, just as DannyBuoy is saying, it is definitely 34". I think one of the ways they're compensating is by running the strings through the body, which I read is supposed to give it just a tad more tension? Either way, the B does not sound floppy at all. 

Price drop to £625. This matte black finish in these basses go for £700. Here's a good deal on a barely used fantastic bass.   

Yes! It feels great, looks great and sounds great! ....but it just doesn't sound "right" to my ears!. 

PRICE DROP --- >£625.  This matte black finish in these basses retails for £700 plus ....here's a good deal on a lightly used bass.  

Hello. I've got my Yamaha BB735a for sale. I bought it November 2017 from Yamaha London and have played it about twice a month at church since then. Reason for sale is that I thought I'd get settled in with the P/J tone ......but apparently my ears cannot forget their J-Bass & Soapbar preferences. I really thought the added versatility of the (fantastic) pre-amp would have satisfied me, but it has not. My ears still aren't comfortable with it. 

The bass is in mint condition, the protective plastic stickers are still in place on the pick guard and pre-amp compartment. I removed the little ones on pickups. This is a fantastic bass, added versatility for someone who loves the P/J tone. The pre-amp has a bypass switch which allows for the passive tone as well.  You can read about the full specs of the bass here on Yamaha's website https://europe.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_instruments/guitars_basses/el_basses/bb_2017/700_series.html#product-tabs

I'm based at a uni in West London, and would much prefer a pickup.

I'm also open to a trade for an Ibanez SRSC 805
