I purchased thiss bass as a first bass in a laval (quebec) store named planetmusik. It was 340$ canadian so its: 227$. I had also the opportunitie to buy a squier mb-4 for 200$: i made the good chose because squier is a little subdivision of fender but ibanez is ibanez.

Wow! The look is reel great: mine is black. The fact that there is two pickups( a jazz and a rock ) makes a lot of different sound for different styles. By the way , i am totaly punk! there is also the tone button that works perfectly. The rosewood neck makes its play smoothly. Damn i like this bass!!!

Hum lets see: the cable that cames whit it was poor quality so buiyed new one for 10$

Hey, its ibanez so its meen great quality : so fuck the crapy guy that said ibanez sucks. Me , I like IBANEZ. The bridge is well made like the pickups. Nothing to complain.

If you are like me (starting in bass), i recomand this bass: you have to pay the 100$ of extra to have two pickups. Thats it. ( if you liked my review : check out acoustic guitar/seagull cedar or: bass guitar amplifier:Ibanez sw20 Thanks
