| | | | Got a question pica ,, i went by the local GC, getting my son the Avid interface,, and i walk to the bass wall ,, i see about 3 basses that look "like" mine but they have a slightly different finish ,, more dark brownburst with gloss finish,, is yours one of those cause mine is flat finish,, is yours qm? They looked awesome just different. |

| | | | It sounds like the one with gloss finish was prolly a SR 400 model in charcoal brown.
The GC SR500 has a flat finish.

Prolly giving some special attention to the guyds moving huge loads of Ibanez instruments or something

I'm really a Fender guy and that's what I want to get. Thanks for all your nice comments. I'm sure this will go to somebody who will like it more then me.

Alan | Sorry to hear that, but in all honesty, if Fenders are your thing, why would you mess with an Ibanez SR? It's as different as it can be from a Fender... anyway...
