You know when you see a bass and you just can't get it out of your head? Since seeing the Ibanez Vintage Artcore AFBV200A on Bass The World, that's been me.
It might not be the best bass or the prettiest but there's just something about it that speaks to me.
Can I find said unicorn? Not a chance. I've gone so far as to translating random websites where they've been listed to see if they're still available, completely setting aside any subsequent issues with shipping and import tax.
So my question is this:
Does anyone have one of these lying around, unused and unloved, who'd be generous enough to sell it on to a good home to get this bass out of my head and into my hands?
Hi, Just stumbled across this l'il chat and thought I'd offer some help to you.
I have literally taken delivery of said Unicorn today!! I am a massive fan of Ibanez 4 and 5 string basses! and have been after this one (AFBV200A) for a few years. What i did was set up an alert on eBay for when one gets listed. As soon as it did just buy buy buy. If it helps I paid £360 inc. postage (guitar only) which i think is an absolute bargain for this bass.

I have had an AFBV205A for around 3 years now. As beautiful as it is, if you are going to use it for gigs I would recommend sticking to a 4 string in this style. The Low B string register is pretty rubbish. But if you are going only for looks, it is a damn fine option. I'd also recommend you do the same as suggested for MrMonkeywizard, set up an ebay notify, so that as soon as one is listed they will let you know. Good luck in your search.
