5 string hollow body bass???

[JayRock18]

Anyone know of any 5 strig hollow body's under $1,000?

Ibanez has some 5 string artcore models I believe. I couldn’t find any on their website but I know I have seen them. Not sure if they are fully hollow or semi hollow

Ibanez SRH505. Piezo pickup, can be had fretted or fretless. Fantastic instruments. I had one and loved it, but sold it because I needed money more than I needed a huge bevy of basses. I will own one again. $750 brand new iirc?

I think you were talking about the Ibanez Artcore AGB205 (or its relic/vintage version, the AGBV205) which IIRC has been discontinued since 2016 (and the vintage version since last year).

Maybe there's still a new old stock out there?

But the two actually are actually semi-hollow body basses, not hollow bodies, and they are short 30.3" scales, if these would mean anything to OP.

The SRH505 has also been crossed out from Ibanez catalog beginning this year. Glad I've managed to get one last year.

The fretless version, the SRH505F, seems still available though (and also the 4 string fretted & fretless versions, the SRH500/SRH500F, are still on the catalog).

All SRH series are also semi-hollow bodies, but they are regular long scales.

I know this is an old thread, but it seems most players here don't just stop at 1 of a style of bass. So I thought I would post this bargain for under $250. I bought one
