    NBD Ibanez artcore agb200

    Sorry to dig up an old thread but some places will flame you for starting a new one before searching. ;-) I just traded for one of these AGB200. I already like it more than I thought I would. I think I read that this short-scale bass needs medium-scale strings? That might explain why the ones on...

    The Official Ibanez TMB Talman Bass Club

    The survey seems to say... “If you can only have one bass, this is one of the best options out there.” I’m very happy with mine (TMB100). Bone stock. I may treat it to one of those fancy pick guards some day. Not cuz it matters. Just cuz.

    NBD Ibanez small AEB

    Yeah. I think they describe it as a Parlor bass but I think they call the 25” that also. I love it plugged in. Unplugged it sounds a bit guitarish (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing) but plugged in it’s all bass. Go ahead and try it. You may decide that you can’t justify keeping one of your...

    NBD Ibanez small AEB

    I was thinking uke bass or travel (25”) bass for campfire type playing with my battery-powered Roland Cube amp. I wasn’t comfortable with those minis and most other AEBs are jumbo and even less comfortable. This Ibanez PCBE12MH-OPN is just perfect. It’s the size of a normal acoustic 6-string...

    No, it doesn’t. lol Wondering why my 100 doesn’t dive but his 300 does.

    My 100 doesn’t seem to neck dive. I guess it’s just the shorter necks? So...that strap is tugging at your groin the whole time?
