Ibanez SR1005 Prestige 5 String Bass

[chiefstrum]

I love this bass but I mostly play fretless and upright now and need to finance some other gear. I bought this bass new about 2 years ago and have taken good care of it. Right now it is strung with black DR strings. The pups and pre are original bartolini. Finish is in great condition and the action and intonation were set a few months ago by a local luthier.
It comes with the factory hardshell case. $750 OBO. I can send high res photos just PM me

Curious, does this have maple behind the spalt or mahogany?

Maple behind the spalt. The neck is maple with bubinga stringers.

Ditto. You can figure it out from the Serial Number. Also, what is the string spacing at the saddles? thanks

Bass is made in Korea. I can tell you though that the fit and finish are superb even for an American bass.

String spacing at the bridge is 17mm.

The low B is tasty. It's very tight and focused for a 34" scale. I think the individual bridge pieces help because you don't get all the sympathetic vibration back through the other strings.

I really like these basses, and if I had a little more dough, I might do this. I know the low B on my 506 is excellent, so I imagine this one is certainly better. Beautiful axe. Almost enough to deter me from my current GAS mission!
