Edit: Would possibly trade for a cheaper 5-string and the remainder in cash.
For sale is my Ibanez BTB1805E 5-string bass guitar. It has beautiful wood and is neck-through construction. This bass is in mint condition. I am the original owner and I’ve only owned it for about 6 months. It’s only been played in my music room, never gigged. The only change that I made was the installation of flat wound strings. I will include the original round wound strings and the Ibanez gig bag that came with it. There is nothing functionally or cosmetically wrong with this bass. The reason that I’m looking to sell it is that I don’t end up playing a 5-string as much as I thought that I would and I can’t see having this much money tied up in a non-played instrument.
I don't really have a good way to ship this instrument. I'm in Austin, Texas, but I'm willing to meet somebody somewhere in central Texas.
Price: $1300
Description from Ibanez:
The BTB1805E Premium from Ibanez features a gorgeous Natural Low Gloss finish and superb playability, making it an absolute treat for anyone to pick up and play. A nine-piece Wenge, Bubinga, and Maple neck fuses with combination Rosewood/Ash Wing body to create a rich, vibrant mesh of sturdiness, smooth playability, and striking looks. A Mono-Rail V bridge keeps each string individually attached for the best possible feel, while Aguilar DCB pickups in both the neck and bridge create booming lows. Further tonal adjustments can be made through the Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-Band EQ, which also includes a mid frequency switch. Gold hardware, a Premium fret edge treatment, and a deep double-cutaway body further exemplify this bass's exceptional construction.
