Up for sale is a really nice late 90's Ibanez TR505 5 string bass. This has been my back up for a while now and is a killer bass. Got my Roscoe so now my SR is my backup. Making this bass lonely. This bass has a neck thats meatier than the SR series but is very comfy.
This bass has been upgraded as much as I could and is a killer playing and sounding bass with a very good b string. Bass plays with very low action and is strung with fresh set of Dean Markley Blue Steels.
The upgrades...
Bartolini BC5CBC Pickups
Aguilar OBP2 Preamp (the switch and 5th knob are Dummies so I don't have holes they are not wired)
Electronics cavity shielded
Hipshot Ultralight tuners
Frets Leveled
Neck shimmed
I will happily include the original pre amp, pickups and tuners at the buyers request.FYI the original tuners would cover the holes drilled for the hipshots.
Bass has been played so there is a bit of wear but nothing terrible. There is one hole near the controls because some idiot(me) tried to mount a battery clip. Hole is tiny and is pictured below. I try to think of it as a resonance equalizer?
I'll sell outright for $450 OBO shipped Conus. Shipped in a cheapo gig bag. (Thats less than the total parts cost!)
Trades.... Looking for
Good sound powerful Combo amps weighing <60 Lbs
Micro heads

4 string basses

Feel free to run anything by me but thats mainly what I'm looking for. Willing to add or take cash (paypal) depending on the deal.
This is a really great bass.
