    Ibanez SR500 worth it for $300 shipped?

    i will definitely check out your post once it comes in! i'm thinking of picking up labellas, but i'm torn between the fl and fs! leaning towards fl, but i'm down to pick up both and see which i prefer. TI's are definitely on my wishlist, i'll definitely save up for them someday to try...

    Ibanez SR500 worth it for $300 shipped?

    i have large hands too, but i think i'll like the thinner neck. regardless, i'm excited to try it out. do you have any flats recommendations? i've only used d'addario chromes. edit: if i ever get around to upgrading it, i'll reach back out to see what you've done to yours!

    hey guys! this is my first real post, was hoping for some guidance for buying a new bass. i love reading these forums for information, it's such a treasure trove! i'm looking at this bass, is it worth it for $300 shipped? it has some finish damage on the front but looks good otherwise, and i'm...
