My first bass. According to the serial it’s a 2014 Ibanez ATK800 and unlike all other 800’s its body and headstock aren’t stained in walnut.
The first owner did some digging. Turns out this was some sort of colorway experiment. For 2016 Ibanez decided to ditch the stain, replace the headstock logo and control knobs with black ones, and rebrand it as the 810. Since everything else was the same, my ‘fake’ 810 was sent to the Netherlands to serve as a demo model.
Other than some buckle rash and a tiny dent it’s flawless. Paid €400 for it incl. a hard case. Pretty good deal if you ask me and a pretty sweet first bass as well. I am thinking of replacing the pickguard though. Something to break up all that ash. Black maybe?

Now I just gotta decide if I’m keeping the Yamaha and/or the Schecter around. I’ll have to do some soul searching in the next couple of weeks

Nice bass! I’m a sucker for natural finish instruments.
Personally, the only pickguard I would replace it with is one of those chrome, reflective ones that I’ve seen on other basses around here. To match the chrome under the bridge and bridge pickup, and the tuners. Otherwise I’d leave it clear.

Oh, I don’t mean some random piece of plastic.
There’s a lumber yard nearby that sells all kinds of wood, including tops for acoustic guitars. Those are too big but they do have a scrap bin with pieces that are just right. Something with a nice grain or figuring, stained black to match the pickups and controls…
Chromed out could look pretty sweet as well. Guess I’ll mess around in Photoshop for a bit.

My Cort B5 Element! My first bass after years of being uninspired and lame on el. guitar. I feel I have found my calling with bass.
Just bought the course today to make sure I don’t transfer my bad habits from guitar to bass. I am aware that there is still a ton to learn. Thanks to Josh, that is easier than ever!
