Nordstrand Big Single Pickups

A set of single-coil "Big Single" pickups deliver a full-bodied, powerfully aggressive tone, whilst retaining its clarity for the ultimate single-coil tone. In order to produce incredibly huge, loud sounds, the ''Big Smile'' pickups are designed with the biggest coils they could fit within the soapbar cover, resulting in the perfect jazz bass-on-steroids tone.

3-Band EQ With EQ Bypass Switch

One of the most unique features of this 5-string bass guitar is the 3-band EQ, featuring an EQ bypass switch to shape and craft the tone of your guitar with maximum control. With controls over treble, mid, and bass, the 3-band EQ lets you to mould every nuance of your sound to find the perfect tone for your playing. The bypass switch flicks between the original and affected tone, letting you experiment and create a range of tonal possibilities.

Mid-Frequency Select Switch

In addition to 3-band EQ, the SR also features a mid-frequency select switch, letting you instantly switch between 250Hz, 450Hz, and 700Hz, the heart of the mid zone, to create a more dynamic and ideal tone when needed.

Mono-Rail V Bridge

The Premium Bass features a stylish Mono-rail V bridge, adding to the beautiful aesthetic of the bass while improving string stability and sustain. This innovative design offers a wide intonation adjustment range, and each independent saddle provides a maximum string vibration transfer without any interference.

GraphTech Black Tusq Nut

Unlike other basses from Ibanez, the SR1405 Bass features a black Tusq nut from Graph Tech. Tusq is impregnated with PTFE, a slippery substance that reduces the binding grip the nut has on the strings, transferring the strings vibrations efficiently to the guitar. Players can achieve a balanced tone with increased harmonics, along with clear highs and open lows.
