The Ibanez Club

[jaypbass]

SO glad I found this thread. You guys gave me some Ibanez props and convinced me not to trade away my 99 Verdine White Sig Bass. What an amazing ax this is. Thanks guys...and gals.

Ill take it if you dont want it
Is that a custom pick guard? Very nice...

I found a Ibanez ASB140 on the East Coast and it's being shipped finally.

Got it for under 2 bills...I played one here and I was hooked... I can't wait til it gets here.

I'm part of the club now!

Now Dr. Cheese just needs to sell me his sweet ATK...lol.

My Ibanez RD505. Great bass, B string is very solid.

I'm no longer in the club.

But it was fun while it lasted.

GSR200FM in blueburst.....its actually really nice, especially for a first.

Here is a better pic of the body on the VW.

There used to be a bass just like that at a local shop and I always wondered what it was/how old is was...

How much did you pay for it?

I had a chance to pick one up for $400 CAD, but I didn't bite because I didn't really need another bass then.

man I must get about 5 PM's a week on how do you like the SR with out the preamp, or how does it sound now.. Etc etc..

Its the best thing I have ever done to this bass.. The tone now is so much better..

Here is a few videos

Stir It Up - Bob Marley

Champagne - 311

Where Are You Going - Dave Matthews Band

Superstition - Stevie Wonder

It's been a long time since I've been a Soundgear player, but this has me wondering what kind of scam I can pull to get a 5-string while still having the money to buy my Spector ReBop DLX FM lined fretless:

Here's mine... I consider it a one of a kind.

It's a 2005 SR-500 converted to a fretless by H.G. Thor, who is without a doubt the best guy that does this stuff. It sounds amazing and it gets better with age...

I think it's pretty slick...

awesome bass mdangelo, that looks really classy. Do you have any sound clips of it?

Check my purevolume page, [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. There's some tracks on there. The bass is run direct through GarageBand and all that's added is reverb.

Bump for the PureVolume link.

Not a looper, just multi-track in GarageBand. Blackbird is mostly two tracks. Jaco's note-for-note bass line (except for the end) and the melody on top of it. There are three tracks at the end.

My Ibanez...

I also have an Ibanez Iceman, will try to get pics...

 

[J.T. Chester]

Just had to stop in & say "hi" to fellow Ibaneezers!

I don't have any IBZ basses any more... couldn't find one that worked well, for me. The EDB-400 & EDC-705 I owned started narrow at the nut, but got too wide down where I pick it. All of the others I've played are set up the same way. Fine for fingers, not good for using a pick. (As a converted guitarist, it's the only way I know how.)

If anyone has any suggestions of an Ibanez bass with a 'parallel' neck/string arrangement, for an old Ric/Hofner pick player, please let me know!

I do own 5 Ibanez guitars though... does that count?
