Designed for perfection
This 5 String Bass has been crafted with a mahogany body, topped with eye-catching poplar burl, and finished in a translucent deep twilight. This combination of premium tonewoods offers stunning aesthetics, whilst adding a warmth and resonance to the overall tone. A double cutaway is also incorporated into the Ibanez SRMS805's design and allows easier access to the higher frets.
The eye-catching body is coupled with a 5-piece jatoba/walnut neck, offering comfort, stability, and durability. Unlike other Ibanez basses, this SRMS805 features a panga panga fingerboard, which is a more sustainable tonewood than the commonly used rosewood. It's very similar to wenge and rosewood in both looks and tone, whilst adding a warmth and resonance to the overall tone and providing a smooth platform for the left hand.
Multi-scale function provides versatility
Available in 5-string and 6-string models, the SRMS805 has been crafted with an innovative fingerboard design, including angled frets for a versatile tone choice. This ergonomic construction coordinates with the player's hand angle, providing a quick and smooth playing function. The versatile fingerboard offers the playability of a 35.5" scale bass, along with the comfort, and punchy tone of a 34" scale. By incorporating both scales, players can achieve a variety of tones in one model.
