New bass!

[Rocket Queen]

Nice looking bass, congrats! What kind of wood is that.

Stained poplar burl.

How's that Ashdown combo?

Just got myself a new Ibanez SRSC805, I personally love the body shape but I know they aren't hugely popular with everyone. It plays excellently I am really impressed. Great sound and great balance all round! What do you all think?View attachment 4137530View attachment 4137531

Absolutely gorgeous! About 3 years ago I got my new Ibanez. I really like that body style but I was looking to try multi-scale (i got a SRMS806).
Your new bass looks absolutely sick!

Congrats on the new bass! Really nice looking top.

I love the way they look, but the only one I have ever played had quite narrow spacing, which isn't my cup of tea, though I see the newer ones are at least 18mm. (I had played a used one a year or two ago at my local GC, and thought it was pretty nice, other then the fact of the narrow bridge spacing. I remember going home and looking it up to see if I was just imagining it, and saw the specs at the time were either 16.5 or 17mm.)

Standard specs are still 16.5, but the single cut and a couple other models are 18mm

Great amp, I have had it 10 years or so now, nice valve drive sound too!

Que Looks beautiful, Ibanez always have a top relation quality price congrats

Interesting look, seems to be Ibby's take on the Hagstrom Beluga. And likely it's better ergonomically, weight-wise, and value-wise. Congrats on a unique choice, I'm sure it will get a lot of attention.

Since you asked, not my thing but as long as you love it, it's all good. Even though I own one - see pic at left - I'm not fond of the SR body shape either.

Hey. If you support growing music in your community, schools, clubs, etc...if that type of bass is what works for you and the music you play, poopie play it upside down..... enjoy it !
Make music fellow bassist !

Beautiful bass!

 

[adamtagg2008]

I've never been a fan of the single-cut aesthetic - but that one is bringing me around. It looks like it would be a pleasure to hold.

Is that top wood for real? It looks amazing in the pictures.

Yeah all real!

Beautiful bass!

Thanks brother!!!Im pretty amazed with it

 

[andronik]

I'm a fan! Beautiful bass, congrats!
I am thinking about buying it and upgrade tuning machines, pickups, preamp and other bits and pieces (see attachment)...
I bet it would transform it in to very high-end bass like instant..

Gotoh GB7 tuners won't be the upgrades to the standards. Your bass has already equipped with some kind of licensed GB7 tuners. Go straight with the best, Gotoh GB350 Res-O-Lite tuners.

I've put on the Res-O-Lites on all my Ibanez basses (obviously, exclude the latest EHB), even on the cheapest one.

I thought GB7 are the lightest ones, no?

Nope. The lightest ones are the GB350's. Even the price will tell you. They are the most expensive out of the available drop-in upgrade tuners for Ibanez basses with 14mm tuner holes tuners to date.

 

[andronik]

Thanx man!!!
