    Hi,

    I've been looking, just looking for now, about some basses, and this one really caught my attention. As seen in some pics, it is really yellow, but i heard and seen in other pics that is not quite so yellow. Anyone has one or pics of how it is for real?

    Thank you

    I think the AM stands for amber, which is a lot like yellow, only fancier.

    I have that exact bass. Mine has a lot more red coloring to it, and doesn't look nearly as yellow.

    I've already seen that video, but I was really looking forward to see some pics if anyone could take them, because in the video i can't be really sure about it.

    Thank you, I found that one before, and i really liked it on that ones, but didn't knew if they were the "true" ones. If you say so i'm really happy with it. They do vary that much? So, if I want to get one with some flame, i would have to choose it one by one? Thought the flame varied with the year of the model, not in same year's model.

    Yep, every piece of wood is different.

    Plus Ibanez doesn't seem to be all that consistent for bookmatching their tops (making sure the pieces on either side of the central strip match) so this is one bass you will want to see before you buy.

    If you have to buy online make sure you get them to send you a pic of the bass before going through with it.
