So they expect someone to shell out $9,500 for an Ibanez that's such an amazing bass that Stanley Clarke, receiving it as a gift, got rid of it? I guess there's one born every minute!

Bill, tgo

We had a recent post about this in July 2010, with a link to Gbase.

Here's an even earlier thread, from February 2006.

Commissioned by Jeff Beck no less.

One off as in serial # 0001 and there are no others. Needs some electronics work but a good bass with a very comfortable neck and then there's the provenance ...

Hilarious!!!

For $9500 they could at least fix the electronics, eh?

Bottom line __ for $9500.00 I would rather buy an Alembic !

Money aside, if I had a bass collection I would want that one.

He states that there was only one. I remember seeing the pic on Stanly's album where it shows 2.
