Description
The Ibanez SR Workshop Series SRMS805DTW is a five-string electric bass guitar with a poplar burl top, a walnut and maple body, a double cutaway design, and a deep twilight finish. It is equipped with a five-piece walnut/jatoba bolt-on neck with a bound panga panga fretboard, 24 medium frets, and a scale length ranging from 34.0 to 35.5 inches. This multi-scale design adapts to the different hand positions that bassists naturally adopt when moving along the neck, offering a more comfortable experience. This also helps produce a more open and lively sound from the instrument.
Key features:
Multi-Scale Design: The balanced tension helps create a more open and lively sound while improving player comfort. The fanned frets’ inclination ergonomically aligns with the player’s hand angle when moving along the neck, facilitating fast and comfortable playability.
Custom Ibanez Electronics with 3-Band EQ: The custom 3-band EQ with an EQ bypass switch and mid-frequency selector provides precise tonal control, including a switch for passive-only operation. When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble control knob becomes the overall tone control for the passive circuit.
– MR5S Bridge: The fixed MR5S bridge facilitates string isolation, with each saddle being independently and securely locked to the body for maximum vibration transfer without interference. The bridge offers a string spacing of 16.5 mm.
Bartolini BH2 Pickups: The Bartolini BH2 pickups provide tight low-end response, punchy midrange, and smooth response. Coils with a lower resonant frequency offer tighter low-end and a fuller midrange response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation, and a long blade pole piece extends the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response.
