For 30 years the SR has given bass players a modern alternative. With its continued popularity, Ibanez is constantly endeavouring to answer the wider needs of a variety of players, at a variety of budgets. But no matter what the specs, the heart is the same and continues to excite with its smooth, fast neck, lightweight body, and perfectly matched electronics.

Materials

The 5-piece Maple/Walnut neck provides tonal clarity and superior attack. The colour of the Jatoba fretboard is reddish-brown and produces a rich mid-range with a crisp high end and is equipped with medium-sized frets to enhance the accuracy of your notes. Achieve a rich mid-low end sound with the Nyatoh body.

Adjustable Saddles

The Accu-cast B500 bridge has adjustable saddles for variable string spacing by +/- 1.5mm, answering every bassist’s specific string spacing needs.

3-Way Power Tap Switch

Accessed by the 3-way Power Tap switch, the pickups offer a choice of three tonal personalities: A rich humbucker sound, a pure single-coil sound, or an enhanced single coil sound— fattened by lows from the humbucker pickups.

Key Features

• PowerSpan Dual Coil Pickups – These pickups produce a stronger signal and increase the response of the higher frequencies without sacrificing low end. The result is a tone rich in harmonic detail and dynamic expression.
• Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ - The 3-band EQ is a straightforward, no-nonsense EQ control. The Boost and Cut for the mid control are centered on slightly different frequencies, an innovation that delivers a preset range of the most favorable bass tones.
