Player’s Perspective

Ibanez has hit a home run with this one! Not only does it just look absolutely gorgeous, but it plays like butter and the electronics in this bad boy are powerful and punchy!

This bass is absolutely gorgeous. There’s no way that you won’t get noticed as soon as you pull this out of the bag. The gold hardware really accents the beautiful blue burst finish over the eye-popping poplar burl top. The Panga Panga fretboard has some beautiful figuring to it and tonally is very reminiscent of wenge. It really helps to accent the low-mids of this bass along with the mahogany body. Everything about this is designed to sound growly, articulate, and pack a punch with every note.

The body of this bass is extremely thin and it’s ergonomically very comfortable. Similarly, the neck is thin and lightning fast to play on. The awesome feel is accentuated by the 15-piece neck that leaves the wood exposed. So as you play it, over time, the natural oils of your hands will work into the neck and it’ll only get more and more comfortable every time you pick it up.

Premium Fret Edge Treatment

The premium fret edges are processed to be specially rounded for smooth play and comfortable neck grip.

Nordstrand™ Pickups

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.

Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ w/EQ bypass switch & Mid frequency switch

Precision tonal control, including a switch to choose passive-only operation. When the EQ bypasses activated, the treble tone control knob becomes the global tone control for the passive circuit.

Mono-rail V bridge

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.
