My friend was recently offered a Cort Artisan 5 string for a Ibanez ATK300 (my old bass), the guy says it is a b5e but I cannot find any pics that look like the bass in question.

If anyone knows if this is a good trade deal or what the heck me and my friend are looking at then we would like to know.

Here are some pics:

it's a B5. I had a B4 with same features (bartolini mk1 elec, but no switch active/passive, wenge neck)
The A series have mapple neck, B serie have wenge neck.
Don't know of the exchange worth it, cause i never played ATK basse. But this B5 is a good bass.
