Rat Blitz Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I've got the opportunity to purchase a 1990 Ibanez SB900 LE (The Sabre Bass). I haven't heard a lot about this bass but it is supposed to be very hard to find and is one of the lightest and thinnest necks out there. My only concern with this one is that is was defretted (but done professionally). Should I jump on this one? I'm not sure when another will come up for grabs. If you've ever played one is it worth all the hype? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 A forum member here used to have a fretted one of these. Looks lovely. Not many around, but doesant neccesarily make it valuable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycanthrope Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 OK, I have one of these (with the frets still on), super think neck and body, active electrics with a lot of tone control. Easy to play, but lacks a bit of sustain and perhaps depth on account of it's light weight etc. Great bass if you've little hands (like me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
