That sort of single cutaway with the long top bout style looks weird to me. But it definitely seems to be gaining popularity with bass builders (even our own DB).Originally Posted by Bass Guy

A month ago I went down to Tassie for a couple of weeks to go to a couple of festivals. While I was Launceston the local music shop (Barretts) was having a guitar expo at one of the hotels. There were a whole heap of interesting guitars, basses and amps. One that caught my eye was in the new stuff for sale room, an Ibanez SR1800 A gorgeous bass that I could never hope to replicate.
I may have bought it.
Very nice.
