From Our Research Team:

An Affordable 6-string Bass with Active EQ!

When you pick up an Ibanez SR256 6-string electric bass, you're instantly greeted with that signature Ibanez "feel." In fact, you'll be surprised by how close the Ibanez SR256 plays and sounds like its higher end SR series siblings. That feel and general "vibe" is due in large part to the SR256's sleek 3-piece maple neck and its comfortable nato arched body. As for tone, this one's loaded with two high-output Ibanez EXF humbucking pickups plus a 3-band active equalization system. All things considered, the 6-string Ibanez SR256 represents a sweet value for any bassist.

This is a great bass. I used this with a Fender Rumble 150, which is sounds great with. The neck is a little wide, but it makes slapping easier; it gives more room for my thumb. I would highly suggest... read more [+] it if you intend to start playing a six string. close [-]
