A pair of Ibanez 5ers (pic heavy)

Following delivery of a fine SR1205 yesterday, I am proud to present this pair of Ibanez 5 stringers.

The SR705 (acquired via the classifieds here last year - thanks Chris!)



Those dolls (which I hate) are my wife's interest. That's her in the background.

Check out the lovely grain:



Nice wear patch above the neck pickup (with apologies for poor picture quality):




And now my new SR1205:

Maple and wenge neck-through, mahogany wings with maple top


Nicely bent mid-controls - thanks to the postal services of the US and/or Sweden! Thanks to Svenska Posten for taking two weeks to get it to me too.


10 out of 10 dogs prefer Ibanez. Poor Rambo is still suffering from allergies, hence the lampshade.


Colour looks nice here. It's transparent black - it looks anything from flat black to green(ish), depending on light and angle


Could do with a clean - the whole thing is a bit grubby


Saying that, the back is so nicely shiny that you can see the pics on our wall on it.



I'll give it a clean, put on some new strings and post more pics. The bass sounds great - warm and clear - and feels excellent. I am very happy!
