i tend to hate gold hardware on basses, but on yours with the natural body and roasted neck it looks absolutley sublime!

I tried out the Cort A4 Ultra with the Fishman pickups a couple of years ago. Absolutely loved the bass itself - the neck was perfect for me (kind of jazzy width but with a flat d profile that felt sublime and instantly comfortable) the bass felt light on a strap and the body shape is really comfortable. Just didn't quite gel with the pickups/preamp though. I thought I would but they seemed to have a bit of a compressed dynamic to them.
The sales guy suggested I try the next model down with Bartolinis in it (A4 Plus FMMH) and I ended up buying that one instead. It was an amazing bass and I would have another one like a shot. The sound was really alive and just worked for me - even though people slate the Barts I really liked them in that bass. They seemed to have a more open sound than the Fishmans. Here it is below in action...you'll see what I mean as the bass is quite high in the mix even though it's just camera phone footage in a pub
I do absolutely love the look of the ultra ash tbf, but hard finding many fishman reviews like the nordstrands.
You say they sound a little compressed but did they have a punch to them?

Iv'e always been a traditional Passive P bass (etc) type player, but ive got the urge to get my mitts onto something a little more modern.
with my Tax rebate looming i fancy something "new" ... i know "better bang for your buck buying used" etc , and i usually do . but this time i fancy something fresh and new.
Iv'e narrowed it down between these 2

https://www.ibanez.com/usa/products/detail/sr1350b_1p_02.html
both have glowing reviews and both seem a lot of bass for the money.
just wondering if anyone here has had any hands on either that the can give me a opinion , pros/negs
cheers 🙂

Crazy low price. I'd grab this if I needed another fuzz.
I loved mine when I had one.
-
Even if it needs a bit of work (frets etc) this has got to be the greatest priced budget bass thats out there?
£108 with a roasted maple neck as well.

💯 God knows why it's labeled as "Artic white" I would have expected it to be brilliant white (glad it's not mind)
