it's a cheap ibanez bass, 1986 made in Japan.
I have the 5 string model that has been de-chartered by a pro luthier.
all original except the strings (logic) and the bridge, replace a big block well strong!
this bass is equipped with active electronics that has a lot of potatoes (but it's still reasonable
)
the mechanical origin of the strings take VERY WELL, even after transportation I need not allowed!
the plastic knobs its not great but pretty good, they work!
Ah yes, it has 24 frets and 2 humbucker pickups style (2 large blocks) and has a very vintage look (at the same time it is time!) And the head is very original.
there are 3 knob: Balance mic / volume / tone
9 / 10 because of the volume pot and a few scratches, but otherwise all OK!
UTILIZATION
to begin, the neck is very comfy, it slips alone.
but the neck is VERY close to a 5 string, it is barely wider than my 4 string, so you must not miss this!
overall ergonomics are good, it stings the nose a bit, but nothing uncomfortable.
something super weird, it is super light! but really! it must make 3 pounds all broken (and again, I count off!) so no problem with her back.
access to acute is impeccable.
I use a preamp EDEN navigator with power amps Crown XLS 202 and baffle homemade INAC a chorus, a volume pedal, a flanger and a big muff U.S. (which works well on bass by the way).
9 / 10 because the handle is too narrow, but otherwise almost perfect, especially for the weight!
SOUNDS
so there! but then there is the strong point of this bass!
you can go to a big fat rock sound to his bass (do not forget that it is de-freighted!)
the sound is warm, organic, a little too round on the neck pickups but with 2 microphones we have a great sound with great bass and midrange, and treble a bit muted (but still present).
I use it mostly for slow songs or "noise" to imitate the sound of a bass, and she filled that role perfectly.
10/10 it suits me perfectly!
OVERALL OPINION
I've had almost a year.
I do it again this election without eSite (although it is no longer manufactured for a long time).
value for money is EXCELLENT since I pay 250 euros for secondhand (for me it's upscale, well it vau 700 euro, used on the net but it is sold in 300. it's almost demeaning to her!).
I like: the sound, weight, ergonomics, price, vintage hand.
I Witness: the stick a little too narrow, knob plastic.
10/10 a wonder!
