Features

• 5pc Roasted Maple/Walnut neck with Graphite reinforcement rods The Roasted Maple neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance and tolerance of temperature changes. The Graphite reinforcement rods provides massive sustain and excellent stability.
• Roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard The beautiful Birdseye Maple fretboard imbues this model with an exotic appearance. The fretboard is heat-treated for a balanced attack and rich sustain.
• Medium Stainless Steel frets The Stainless Steel frets are durable and long-lasting.
• American Basswood body The American Basswood body delivers a natural and flat tone.
• Bartolini® BH2 pickups The Bartolini® BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range, and smooth response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response.
• Vari-mid 3-band EQ The Vari-mid 3-band EQ features a variable mid-frequency control which allows you to dial in an incredibly wide range of sounds.
• Ibanez custom headpieces Rugged yet light-weight Ibanez custom headpieces enable strings to be easily set and released by a hex wrench from the back side.
• MR5HS bridge The MR5HS bridge is designed specially for EHB basses and features a wide intonation range. Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer. The saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm, answering every bassist’s individual string spacing demands, no matter the playing style. Teflon washers are used on each tuner for a smooth tuning action.
• EQ bypass switch (passive tone control on treble pot) The EQ bypass control offers precision tonal adjustments, including a switch to choose passive-only operation. When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble tone control knob becomes the global tone control for the passive circuit.
• Luminescent side dots The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.
• Schaller S-Locks strap lock pins Indestructible Schaller S-Locks don't fail, even under the toughest conditions on stage.
• Gig bag included It comes with Ibanez gig bag which is designed specifically to fit and protect this instrument.
