Help Identify This Ibanez Bass

[Steve Heine]

It’s definitely an original Jolana and NOT an Ibanez. cdef found the actual listing from 2016.

This bass was offered on Polish eBay in 2016 as a Czech-made Jolana Superstar, with the amendment "has reworked a headstock and the inscription "Ibanez" varnished, as well as new tuning pegs" (Yandex translation).

Never seen an Ibanez with the 4 plate screws placed way off the center axe of the neck heel routing like that.

That bass looks like it pre dates that Ibanez logo by at least a decade So, fake logo. But whatever, if it plays well and you didn’t over pay for it congrats and enjoy it.

The headstock logo is fake.

Bingo and obviously so.

Is it playable?
