Ibanez SRH500 Semi Hollow Bass, Dragon Eye Burst Flat - Nearly New Overview

The Ibanez SRH500 Semi Hollow Bass 2018 in Dragon Eye Burst Flat is a modern solution that gives bass guitarists access to the sound of an upright bass, with the contours and playability of a solid-body bass. It combines a bright and resonant 55m-thick semi-hollow chambered body with enhanced playing contours and a smooth playing neck. The neck is mounted to the body with an exceptionally ergonomic sculpted heel, while the neck and fingerboard are thin enough to enable the most technically demanding of playing styles. The 55mm body is constructed from warm and resonant mahogany, and it is chambered to open its sound up for an "airy" quality of tone. The body has a spruce top for great nuance and responsiveness, while an AeroSilk piezo pickup is integrated into the bridge and specially designed to work with flat-wound strings; this allows you to recreate the tonality of an upright bass. For session players and solid-body-playing bassists wishing to achieve an upright sound, this is the ideal 'half way' instrument which will let you keep the comfortable playing feel of a solid-body. The SRH500 would also make an ideal studio instrument, giving your recordings a fresh new tonal option.

Semi-Hollow Body

The Ibanez SRH500 is part of the bass workshop series, bringing concept ideas to reality for a unique instrument with state-of-the-art innovations. Crafted with a spruce top and mahogany back and sides for a 55mm thick construction, the SRH500 produces a rich, resonant tone and offers a lightweight bass that can be played all night long. In addition, the specially designed forearm contour on the body top offers playing comfort and adds an elegant accent to its appearance.

Neck & Fingerboard

The eye-catching ash body is mounted with a thin 5-piece jatoba/bubinga neck, which offers comfort and stability, that will not not warp or twist over time. Its slim profile is thinner than a traditional bass neck and allows for fast styles. Like many basses from Ibanez, this workshop model features a bound rosewood fingerboard, and provides a warm, soft tone with a natural feel. This classic fingerboard is also decorated with off-set white dot inlays for added elegance, and fret location.

AeroSilk Piezo Pickup

As well as providing eye-catching looks and comfortable playability, the Ibanez SRH500 is equipped with a custom bridge and AeroSilk Piezo system which works with the D'Addario ECB81 flat wound strings to provide the classic 'upright double bass' character. Achieving the perfect sound is easy with wooden control knobs for volume and bass.
