The Ibanez SR1305 5-String Electric Bass Guitar Natural Flat featuring a 5 piece Wenge/Bubinga Neck loaded with 24 frets and a body made from Ash, Walnut and mahogany housing two Nordstrand ‘Big Single’ 5 pickups.
The body provides a well balanced resonance thanks to the tonal properties Ash and Walnut while the mahogany provides structural integrity to the overall build. This defined tone is further complimented by a pair of Nordstrand pickups which deliver plenty of character and clarity.
Nordstrand™ "Big Single" crams as meaty a single coil as can fit in a soapbar style pickup, producing a full-bodied, powerful, aggressive tonal texture, while still retaining the clarity that's characteristic of single coil pickups.
The Mono-rail V is the ultimate bridge for bass string isolation. Each bridge is independently and securely locked down to the body for maximum vibration transfer without interference.
The mono-rail V bridge is set up to offer a comfortable action and precise intonation helping to enhance the playability of this instrument when coupled with the unique 5 piece maple neck.
The premium fret edges are processed to be specially rounded for smooth play and comfortable neck grip.
This instrument finds the perfect middle ground between playability, tone and aesthetic, and all comes at an attractive price.
