Any ibanez expert bass players need help

[socialparasite]

Well last night after talking with my sisters boyfriend he mentioned his mom bought him a 800 dollar ibanez 4 string bass cherrish color. He has had it for like 4 or 5 years setting in his closet and he told me that i could have it for 2 hundred. I have never seen the bass but do any of you people know a bass around that price range ibanez makes? Thanks i know thats a random and hard question but its worth a shot. I am thinking about buying it if it is a nice one.

Got any pics? And how does it play? If YOU think it's worth it, and you feel that you want/need it, then go for it.

Ibanez have a very consistent and high quality range (as you probably already know), so it's probably worth it.

He could of given you a fake price of its value...

Even if 800 was an overstatement, It probably isn't too far off, the cheapest one I've seen was I think in the $350-400 range, Ibanez makes good quality gear and two hundred is probably a steal if everything's nice on it. I say go for it if it plays and looks nice.

So, did you buy it?

Get the exact model from him and do a search for it. You should be able to get price information.

It's likely worth it, the Ibanez basses aren't bad at all.

My first bass is an Ibanez Gio. I paid about $200 for it new. I like it, but then I have nothing to compare it to.

The one I've got kicking around is an Ibanez. It works just fine but I don't know what the heck I'm doing either.... :hmmm: I paid about $250 for it with a small pratice amp, ended up selling it to a friend but I'm trying to figure out a way I can buy it back.

The only problem with mine is that it is a lttle head-heavy. One has to support the weight of the neck with the left hand. Still, the tone is OK. It does good harmonics with the switch to the left.
