I watched these videos on Ibanez's website and, In one of them they metion that they will be releasing a new line of Prestige basses. What do you think they will be ?? Videos: http://ibanez.com/SiteDown.htm?aspxerrorpath=/prestige
I hope its a whole new range. Ibanez have been kicking out the same designs for too long. Bring back the Ergodynes i say.
I think a Prestige ATK or SRX would be cool. It'd be a more unique tone bass than the SR's (which in my opinion sound fine, but I like a bass with some unique tones Ex: Punchy, Growl, Super-Mids lol)
There are already Prestige BTB's available. So I'm thinking it would have to be something else. A Prestige ATK would be really cool though.
A few years ago there was a lot of talk of Ibanez working on a high end single cut design. While I doubt the new Prestige model will be a SC, I hope it is.
Whew!!! Thanks for taking the pressure off senior. I thought I was the only person on here that didn't care for single cut basses.
+1. Only Ibanez I ever owned was an EDB somthing or another (400 maybe?). It was my modulus' backup, but I ended up playing it almost as much. That made with high end electronics and some exotic woods at a sub 1500 dollar price would be a great bass.
lol yeah theres a few basses out there that just don't look right to me, but then again they can sound great...like this http://trabenbass.com/chaos_core.php it sounds great but...weird body shap is a turn off
How about a Prestige version of the Ibanez RD bass.I'd love to see it with all kinds of pickup and wood combinations.
+ 1 million. Fair enough the luthite never took off but there's no denying those basses are comfier than sleeping on a cloud. They've got super fast necks too. One of those bad boys made as a prestige model would sell IMO. I've been playing my Edb600 for 6 years and i'll never get rid of it.
i like for them to bring back the roadgear series and make it a prestige, because with a little more work with that bass series would be killer.
