FS/FT - Ibanez BTB570fm + HSC (MINT!!)

[cactusPhan39]

Hey guys, thought i had a local deal going but i just got the news that he is backing out so this bass is back on the market

This is my 4 string Ibanez BTB570fm in mint condition, not a single scratch.
- Mahogany body with flamed maple top
- 5-piece maple/bubinga BTB4 neck, thru body
- Rosewood fingerboard
- 24 medium frets
- Bartolini MK2 pickups
- Bartolini MK2 active 3-band EQ (18V)
- Mono Rail II bridge
-35" scale
*Also has strap-locks installed.

More pictures of my actual bass can be found at this link:

I have this bass weighed in at about 9.8 lbs on a fairly accurate digital scale.
I am asking for $450 $400 $350 $325 plus shipping and I will ship it in a hardshell case (non-original). I am VERY VERY motivated to move this bass this week so make me an offer.
I am located near NYC so anything local would be great. Otherwise Paypal, Money Order... anything that clears with my bank. MAKE ME AN OFFER!!


Feel free to ask any questions or for any other pictures. You can contact me on my email at Davenger39@Gmail.com

Nice looking bass! And your post was just fine. Good luck!

"Do people want more info or am I not pricing this bass correctly" BUMP...

Give it some time buddy, sometimes these things take a few days...

Some ideas/advice you might consider:

- Generally, actual pictures of the bass in its current condition will help. We trust you that it's mint, but some people like some "bass porn" to lure them into the deal.

- This site is *very* rabid for high-end (Fodera, Roscoe, Sadowsky) basses, and classic (Fender, Musicman, Fender, and Fender). The Ibanez fans are few and far between, and they have to put up with a lot of elitist crap from people who had one bad experience with an Ibanez once upon a time in Guitar Center. Be patient, the right buyer is out there...

- One final thing, it might be a better idea to post a price that includes shipping. People don't like uncertainty. The $425 thing is great, but I have shipped basses and had it cost anywhere from $40 to $100. Make your deal solid, so the buyer isn't surprise.

Good luck man!

I've found that pictures never do the BTBs justice and that they are even better looking in person. Bet this plays great!
