Nibody Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) What can £140 buy you these days? In my case a 2016 Ibanez SR305EB... Wasnt after another bass but after playing my buddys SR300EB this little gem popped up on Facebook Marketplace. Couple of minor marks on the front, was £160, then £149... when the guy was demoing it it made a load of noise as he unplugged it so he was convinced the jack needed replacing so he knocked it down to £140. Would have been a good price at £160 IMHO. If I decide to flip it Id get my money back easily - cant pick up a Squier P Bass for £140 these days. Very happy with it.

ezbass Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 That’s some score! At that money, you could use it a chassis for some very nice electronic upgrades (Nordy Big Singles or Spilits spring to mind, plus preamp of you choice) and still have a bit of a bargain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty happy with how it sounds stock to be fair but I'll definitely look into those. 14 hours ago, PaulThePlug said: Nice... I do likes the Ibby SRs... I used to own a 1980 RS900 but I'd never really looked at the more modern Ibby's till I picked up my mates SR300. Even then I was and still am really happy with my Frankenspector and the Vampyre so I wasn't looking to increase the herd. But when this popped up (and at that price!!) I couldn't help myself. A lot of bass for not much money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
