BabuHS Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Hi all! I'm looking to trade my 5 string Ibanez ATK-305 for a 6 string bass. It's in very good condition, and as you may or may not know, they don't do these anymore but they are terrific basses for the money. Maple fretboard and neck, ash body, "double humbucker" pickup for a good variety of sounds. It's in perfect playing condition and great aesthetic condition bar one very small ding on the headstock (no paint chips or the like to be seen). Some specs:[list] [*]Ash body, maple fingerboard [*]Scale - 34" [*]Width at nut: 45mm [*]Spacing at bridge: 17 mm [*]22 frets [*]Bolt-on neck [*]Strings through the body [*]Ibanez triple coil pickup [*]Volume, coil tap, and 3-band active EQ [/list] I only have this one crappy phone picture so far, but I'll take some more tonight. It has a white tortoiseshell pickguard too, I simply prefer how it looks without it. I'm based in West London, so you're welcome to have a look in person if you can. For trades, may be interested in 35" fives, but primarily after a sixer! Thanks for looking. [b]UPDATE - [/b]looking for a sale now, as I have my eye on something. Asking £320 ONO! Won't be able to get more pictures till at least tomorrow or the day after I'm afraid, but drop a PM if you're interested! [b]UPDATE 2[/b] - added pictures, scroll down and have a gander.

BabuHS Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 Bump. Make an offer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBbass Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Good price. These are kind of like stingrays IMO. It's the only Ibanez which they currently make which I really like. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabuHS Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Thanks mate! I'd agree, I think Ibanez have done a great take on a Stingray at a fraction of the price, and I like to think it holds its own too haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_stones Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Absolutely superb basses. Excellent tone, lovely playability and built like tanks (with weight to go with them). Used to have a 4-string with the additional j pup in neck position. Along with my Sandberg it's in the 'one that got away'category. Best of luck with the sale - it's an absolute bargain!

dannybuoy Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Swap for a 6-string Strat instead of a 6-string bass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabuHS Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Thank you for the kind words, Chuck. You're right, these truly are one a kind, and definitely hefty with tonnes of tone to boot! It's just not suitable for me at the moment, unfortunately. Danny, I'm afraid I already have two sixers to get rid of, really only play 7s these days, but thanks anyway. It's a great looking axe!
