Help me find the cheapest 5-string with 18mm spacing

I've got an Ibanez 5 that I defretted that I'd ship cheap if you're interested. I can check string spacing tonight.

EDIT- sorry thought you were looking for a fretless five.

No sweat, my friend. Thanks for the offer and GLWTS!

That Ibanez most likely has 16.5mm spacing, but in any case, @Eminor3rd is looking for a fretted bass.

Indeed ^

GSR205SM.

Great bass, really affordable. I'm just not a fiver guy. This thread does have me curious about spacing though.

Again, sorry about the mistake on fretted, OP.
pretty sure your Gio SR has the usual 5 string SR series 16.5mm string spacing.

To my knowledge, 18mm string spacing is only available on a couple 5 string SR series basses, namely the SRSC805 and SR2405W, which couldn't be said cheap given that these are on the $1,000~1,500 price range.
