After only ordering at 4pm yesterday (NSW time) currently 7:12 PM 21/04/20
My new Ibanez arrived,a couple hours ago.
I really wanted to try a headless and multi scale
And my god this bass is killer easily the lightest bass I own, lighter then my acoustic guitar!
I was worried with headless maybe playing around the 1st fret it wouldnt feel the same but nope feels exactly the same.
Another concern the the multi scale, but as much has been said how it feels the same I didnt believe it. And yet it does I feel no real difference for me.
Maybe since I only fiddle around on a practice amp for halfa.
Sounded killer can't wait to plug it into the rig.
With the angled picked I was wondering how my finger playing would be affect but it actually helps when I want to go into that striking Ryan Martine style!
Again havnt messed with the sounds to much just the blend control but it is to be expected, same as on my Ibanez BTB very much P bass on the neck solo bridge J on the bridge and amazing in the middle.
I can't wait to see how it fits into my arsenal!

Beautiful bass, but I'm super jealous of the prompt shipping and delivery. I had a bass shipped to me on a Thursday, projected to arrive Friday, but didn't. It sat all day Saturday in the local hub, not making the delivery truck for some reason. It then rode around on a delivery truck all day Sunday only to go back to the hub, then on Monday it was delivered late afternoon in an unmarked box truck with two guys that had no affiliation with the delivery company.

And to cap it off, I just got an email notification that it is updated to be delivered today, and that it is on the delivery truck again.... And this was an insured bass for nearly $2k. Stunning.

All that said, beauty of a bass and congrats on the great shipping!
