Ibanez Gurus... What is this?

Recommended Posts

I'm clearing out some kit and would appreciate it if any Ibanez experts could shed some light on this.
The serial places it at the Fujigen factory in April 2003 (if I've read the serial decoder properly), but I have no idea what the model number is.








Any clues?, as I can't really decide on an asking price if I don't know what model it is.

Many thanks.

I have one and I love it. I got it off here for a steal, so I'll not comment on its value. I can tell you that it is very, very nice![/quote]


Woh, thanks for the speedy reply. That looks like the beast, and I agree, very nice, but I'm not 5-stringing anymore, so need to offload. I will look for 'SR705' on eBay and get an idea of value.

Once again, many thanks.

Great stuff, many thanks. That's definitely the one in the catalog. eBay is no good as they all seem to be later models on there, and the design seems to have changed over the years.

I will slap it up on the for sale page and see what bites.....

There is another model called, annoyingly, the SR705. It is either the next version of the bass or another bass with the same name...all in all, it isn't the same. It's made in Korea, has different neck woods and a different jack socket placement. I've played one and didn't like it at all. Take that into consideration when looking at Ebay.

Hang about a bit and someone who can value it properly will pop up.

Hah Ha.... It's up for sale. I'm not looking to make a killing, just re-coup some dosh. I don't think it's a majorly collectable Ibanez so see what this brings.....
