The Ibanez Club (Part 2)

[petemac]

Recently bought these 2 beauties. I'm impressed by the build quality and tonal variety. Love the narrow fast necks and narrower string spacing. I'm not a slapper and play mostly fingerstyle jazz.

What Ibanez is this?

Absolutely awesome...I'd say the best looking Ibanez ive ever seen.

 

[petemac]

It's a USA Custom. Built in 1994. Neck thru, EMG pickups.

I just got this a couple of days ago. 1985 Axstar with the OHSC. It's in decent shape with the exception of the neck pickup--it's dead. Not too big of a deal. I have some EMG replacements on the way.

I'm in! After playing one of the two-pickup, 5-way selector switch models at NAMM, I just had to have this baby!

And I have another older model that I need to get up, but have no photos at the moment.

That is one fine looking ATK. I have an '89 SR800LE on it's way to me, stock except for it being converted to fretless (looks like a pro job). I'm already on Thor's list; I'll just send him this one instead of a fretted one.

My first bass and I still own it.

Here's my "new" slightly battered 1985 Ibanez Roadstar II RB630, ressurected from the dead. I put a new truss rod in it, which was a job I hope to not do again for a while. It involved removing the original walnut plug and skunk stripe, making a truss rod from scratch, making a new plug and skunk stripe, and all... All that is left is to touch-up the finish, when I get around to it. After all, I had to see if it would play before going to all the trouble of touching-up the the finish, right?

I just put it back together last night, and installed new Fender tape wounds on it today. Been enjoying it. Its a pretty darn good bass. I need to do a few tweaks, such as shimming the neck angle and fine tuning the intonation, etc, but its playing and the truss rod works!

BTW, I was advised on this forum to pass on this bass because of the neck issues (probable broken truss rod, and it DID turn out to be broken), but I couldn't. I bought it for $40 and put a little money and too much time into it, but I have less than $70 into it now (not including my labor, $29 worth of tools, and the new strings of course).

[Funkdrawer4]

Hey all has Ibanez ever made a BTB with a wenge neck?

 

[q1014]

Ibanez Gsr200 second bass can i join???

 

[Solarmist]

I'm unfortunately down to one Roadstar II RB850, and am saving for that real pretty SR400QM in Cherry Sunburst. Can I get a number, or are there numbers?

 

[kazuya]

Ive always like the look and feel of ibanez. Srx2ex1 is my first bass. As you can see i have a t.bird also. Dont like it very much. People have told me, sound wise the iceman sounds like the t.bird. Is this true? If so id rather sell my bird and get the ice. Thanks

I defretted my ATK 305 there a couple weeks ago, here're some finished shots:
