Ibanez Musician MC-940DS

 

Fantastic old high-end fretless Ibanez from 1983, crafted in Japan. It comes with it's original hardshell case.

 

 

This bass can be played active or passive. Controls are pickup selector/master volume/tone, treble/mids/bass, active/passive switch.

 

It is in used but good functioning condition. There are usermarks and small damages, but nothing serious. On the back of the headstock there are 3 filled up holes. The neck is straight and adjustable. Electronics function like they should as well.

 

Without any doubt this is the easiest playing fretless I've encountered so far. It plays very mwwweeell with a low action. The ebony fretboard shows some stringmarks, but nothing that affects playability. This bass plays great. It has been set up with Thomastik flatwound strings.

 

Weight is 4.5kg on my kitchen scales.

 

The original case is included. The exterior has damages all around, but it's fully functional. The keys are still present too.

 

I got this beauty in a trade recently. It´s a very good one, but don´t have the need or the talent for a fretless currently. 

 

Now €1.250

 

I am located in the Netherlands, but happy to ship at buyers risk.

I have one (not fretless) and it's really a great bass, very versatile. Love this bass !

As featured on the front of the first bass book I ever bought, Teach Yourself Rock Bass. The book was really not that helpful to me, but to this day I consider these basses the epitome of cool. Sadly I'm skint.
