This 6-string Ibanez Bass features a lightweight mahogany body with elegant contours and a smooth design, creating an incredibly comfortable instrument with sweet, warm tonal characteristics. As well as appearance, the GSR206B GIO also features a double-cutaway body shape which allows easier access to the higher frets, delivering incredible flexibility across the entire fingerboard.
Along with its smooth designed and fast playing experience, the neck’s maple construction provides a beautifully bright characteristic, creating a snappy attack in the midrange with a sizzling high end. When the strings are played hard, the wood adds extra layers of punch to the tone, while light to medium picking offers more clarity. Additionally, the neck is paired with a jatoba fingerboard which enhances the overall projection, offering a strong, hard character to add extra punch and a subtle amount of brightness.
This Ibanez GIO Bass is equipped with a set of powerful Dynamic H Pickups, designed specifically for 6-string basses to accommodate the extended frequency range and deliver truly thunderous tones. Incorporating individual volume controls for each pickup, the GSR206B allows you to blend both pickup tones to create unique soundscapes. The master tone control shapes the bass’ frequency response, letting you dial in your own desired preference. Additionally, the built in PHAT-II EQ circuitry allows active style bass boosting via its one channel EQ preamp, deliver a beefy and deep tone for when you need to add an extra layer of thunder.
