I bought an old Ibanez SDGR off Ebay a few years ago in the hope my son would get interested (slim neck for small hands). He didn't. It's got some good tones and the it's a handsome thing with all uncoated woods but I never got on with it because the slim neck feels too cramped for my sausage fingers. I also could never get the action low enough so it went in its case and I kodded myself that maybe me son would see the light. He hasn't. I took it out today to see if I could get it set up and into a sellable state to get some cash in as I have my eye on something here that I can't really afford. I assume I overpaid on Ebay - I know I was a bit merry when I bought it - so I have no idea on the value and I don't even know how old it is. I got the serial number and looked everywhere online and no luck. It seems like it's an oddity because the serial number begins with a P and nowehere even mentions that. All I know is it's an MIJ custom model. Does anyone know where I can find out more or have a clue about a P-numbered Ibanez? Cheers

Ah right. Thanks for the info. Funny to think that Peavey were once feeling thier way on something so basic as painting a bass. And that also explains why there are a lot of black ones knocking around still. It does look very mean in the black but that frost blue is so 80s.

Thanks. I've gone down a bit of a rabbithole on them since yesterday. Not cheap nowadays but seem like amazing and incredibly versatile basses, epsecially for a passive. Not usually a fan of colourful basses but that is particularly handsome and the blue ones seem hard to find. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled and hope one comes up when I have some cash!

Wow, that really was quick! Thanks a lot and a Spotter's badge to you! Never played a Peavey but it looks like a real beast.

Can anyone out there identify the bass in this video? Stickers apart, it's a real looker and it has a nice growl and it's kind of hovering in the back of my mind but I can't place it and the video is just grainy enough to make it impossible to make out the name on the headstock. The best look is in the first few seconds so if you don't like Spanish pop punk you don't have to listen to it for long. Spotter's badge and personal pride to the winner!
