Aria Pro II Integra IGB-85B w/ Bartolini pickups Billy Gould FNM style bass

For sale is another Aria Pro II IGB-85B bass. The "B" stood for "Bartolini pickups, which this bass still has. I have another IGB-85B for sale, sans the Bartolinis, FYI! 

Anyway, this bass is an excellent playing AND sounding instrument and is in very good cosmetic condition. There is minimal fret-wear. Overall it's a great bass but the Bartolini pickups are really impressive and are the main attraction of this bass! 

I had this bass setup professionally and had some Rotosound RS66LC steel roundwound 40-60-75-95 gauge strings installed. Additionally, since the pots were totally frozen, I had them swapped out for some new 250k pots. The tech also installed a truss rod shim (the "washer trick" -  Google it for more details) to give the truss rod a bit more room to turn. It is setup to my liking with medium low action and lighter gauge strings. There are no other neck or fret issues. It plays really well!

It features MIJ Gotoh tuners and a sleek, black finish. Rosewood fretboard, 24 frets,and 34" scale. Another cool thing about this model is it used an SB-style bridge which featured a "quick release" making string changes very easy. It's also a high mass bridge if you are into those! Note: this bridge is slightly larger than '80s era SB bridges. I say this in case anyone bought this and wanted to swap the bridge into their SB. It most likely won't fit without a little extra routing to the body. 

Also of note, as seen in the pictures, there is an Aria Pro II sticker on the back of the bass. I decided not to remove it in case anyone wants to keep it intact. You can remove it with Goo Gone or a hair dryer and rubbing alcohol if you want it gone, though. 

The Integra series was developed in 1986 and spawned a series of models that has lasted until the present time. This particular model is from around 1990 or so. Billy Gould of Faith No More used several versions, similar to this one, but his had P/J style pickups. It was most likely made in Korea as Aria was moving production from Japan to Korea around that time.
