deadraven Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) [size=8][u][b]SOLD[/b][/u][/size] Like I said in my other post, I've shifted from bass to guitar now *zips up flamesuit* so dont hurt me! So I'm selling pretty much all of my bass gear to fund my guitar gear that I now need to upgrade. Below is my K5, I'm looking for [b]£200 [/b]for it. [b]Comes with a bass bag, straplocks, and strap.[/b] I've tried various straplocks, and these are the best ones for me. [u][b]No Trades![/b][/u] It does have some wear and tear, I've tried to be as honest as possible in all the pictures (in link below). It still sounds as great as it did out of the box. You can dial in various tones, including Fieldy's if you so desire. For the serious player, I'd advise on a new setup as I had this setup for A tuning, but it is not a requirement, just a suggestion. LOTS more pics here! : [url="http://s28.photobucket.com/albums/c217/beanedd/Ibanez%20K5/"]http://s28.photobuck...dd/Ibanez%20K5/[/url] If you want to see the spec its here : [url="http://www.ibanez.com/BassGuitars/model-K5"]http://www.ibanez.co...uitars/model-K5[/url] [u][b]COLLECTION ONLY [/b][/u]- I live in Wolverhampton in the West Midlands. (I work with couriers, it doesnt come with a hardcase so I wont send via courier cuz I know what they are like!)

Truckstop Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Very cool! Used to have one years ago and loved it. Don't be put off by the Korn connotations. It's a great bass in it's own right! Excellent Ibanez build quality, flexible pre and a nice slim (but not too much) neck. Truckstop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadraven Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 bump Agreed, I've always preferred the neck on this bass. Plus its lightweight too so your not gonna break your back either ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kongo Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Would love one of these one day when I can spare the cash as testament to my teenage years haha. When I was 14 these were all the rage! everyone wanted a 5-string and it HAD to be the K5 or similar...silly right? But hey, that's what it was. Have this bumpage in hopes that there are still people from that era around. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadraven Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 I was one of those kids man haha although its probably bad to admit it since alotta people look down on him on bass forums, I was a Fieldy nut in my early bass days. It's still a great bass though, definatly got me through my younger years competing with seven string guitarists for loud wars in the prac room lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellyfish Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 What's the difference between this and the current K5 apart from, obviously, colour/finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jahfish Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 bad news that. Its tough out there on the icy snow streets. One man's loss though - so Deadraven please PM me about me buying this bass - I thought it had sold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadraven Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 PM'd. Its a very very lightweight bass, lightest I've owned! It'll need a string change and maybe an adjustment to the action, but thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
