View Full DescriptionAdd a funky bassline to your performance
A pair of Bartolini BH2 pickups work together to create punchy mids, a smooth response, and an excellent string to string response. However, if you want to switch this sound to suit your style, there are a wide range of controls with which you can discover your own sound and unleash your creativity. Once the EQ bypass is activated, this model's treble tone control knob becomes the main control for the passive circuit.
The perfect combination of tonewoods
This Ibanez bass guitar has been crafted from materials that are guaranteed to take your performance to the next level. The body has been sculpted from four different materials, which include okoume, jatoba, walnut, and mahogany. Whilst the body material offers a fast attack, which is packed with clarity and articulation, the rosewood fingerboard balances these tones out with its warm resonance. Combined, these result in a smooth and well-balanced tonality. Paired with this is a jatoba/walnut neck, imbuing this bass with a sharp mid-range, excellent sustain, and beautiful characteristics.
Designed for perfect playability
Each and every detail of this model has been carefully crafted to ensure that your performance is as comfortable and hassle free as possible. Its body has been shaped with elegant contours that allow it to rest comfortably no matter if you're sat down or wandering around the stage. This has been paired with a cutaway design, which lets your hand effortlessly glide down the neck and reach the upper frets with ease in order to add a high-end groove to your sound. The SR500E's frets are a medium size, which means bending and adding a unique vibrato to your sound is effortless. Not only that, but these also add to your luxurious playing experience due to their comfortable nature.
