anzoid Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Don't know if the starting price is good or not, but I believe there's some love for these around here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Classic-80s-Ibanez-Musician-MC924-Electric-Bass-Guitar-Made-in-JAPAN/232456177098 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Yes indeed, these are fantastic basses. Thank God it's not white or I'd be in deep doo-doo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Not looked in a while but I think when they come up on BC, they often go for a fair bit less than the start on this. Looks in nice order though. Edited August 20, 2017 by Bassassin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 The Musicians are highly regarded - Nick Smith and Dave Swift are both serial owners. Seen these sell for over a grand before - this one looks well looked after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICbass Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Lovely basses and absolute tone-monsters but not for the faint-hearted weightwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger2611 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 The weight has always put me off, I remember reading about a collector who had two, the "light weight one came in at 15lbs the heavy one at a back breaking 22lbs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Thanks for that note from the wise - I've always been tempted - now I know to check the weight before diving in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] These are probably the Ibanez Studio model, very similar to the Musician model but significantly heavier - for the tone I guess. I've had both briefly and the Studio was close to 15lbs whereas my old Musician was 11lbs from memory...still too heavy so I sold that one too but as already said they're truly great basses and tone monsters.
