emilibass Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hi. Beatiful! What's the weight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatEric Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 These are such good basses. Practically giving it away. Hope it goes to a good home - would have had it myself but I am really trying to be good. The fact that I have hovered over these images for a good five minutes, makes me think I am not cured yet. Good luck. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their value will probably rocket in a few years knowing my luck! Edited December 1, 2014 by Cosmo Valdemar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jono Bolton Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Talk about bad timing; last week I was outbid on a Blazer at the last second on Ebay, but later that day I found a new Squier Matt Freeman Precision for less than half price (someone had bought it & never used it, still had the plastic on the scratchplate & pickups so that counts as new in my book!). If I'd not bought the Squier I'd have had this off you already, the Matt Freeman's been on my GAS list for a while but so has a Blazer and there's no contest between that and one of these. Good luck with the sale! Edited December 1, 2014 by Jono Bolton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocco Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Want! I have my original blazer up and running now. This would be a good addition maybe after crimbo if its still here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckstop Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 As President of the St. Albans Ibanez Blazer Fan club I think I should have it. But I don't have any money My heart aches sorely every time I think of my old Blazers. I sincerely wish I had never sold my '84. Great bass in every way!

These are REALLY great basses, with a power and tone that would floor many popular basses. I'm off to put a Blazer Blindfold on!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Ok. Look at it this way. . . . . Imagine you have £200 to buy a bass. Not necessarily to look at or look good playing it just a tool for making great music. You want it well made, bit of character, nice feel to it, easy to play and to get on with - simple controls etc, enough punch and tone to make a LOT of basses run for cover - what could you get? Mmmm! Ask Truckstop, he'll agree with me - what you would get is an Ibanez Blazer! But. . . . . . you have one, so no need to go looking! Why not bond with it again - you know it makes sense! Cheers.
