Sweetwater Advice

Austin Moss

I was a classical guitar player and cut off my nails because of this instrument! I LOVE this bass! Just look at it: the grain and the finish, its understated class. The pickups are pretty hot and the tone circuit is great. The neck is pretty small and is really easy to get around on. Loads of different tones come out from dark and dubby to growly and aggressive. I highly recommend getting the Ibanez SR600... and make sure to get a case or gig bag while you're at it!

extremely happy with my sexy new bass

played it fo over a month and sometimes i just don't want to set it down. in addition to just being great looking, it is the best balanced bass i've ever played.

and i can't say enough about sweetwater and their personal attention. would that all businesses were run as well.

Tone machine!!!

I was very satisfied with this bass when I received it..I looked and made sure there was no major aesthetic issues. It came set up perfect. I later plugged it in and the tones that came from was amazing..it already sounds good without an amp because the woods are very resonant...I play a lot of jazz,funk,gospel,and neo soul and this bass does the job. The combination of the eq and pickups and weight makes this bass highly playable and efficient without the sacrifice of your tone..For the price the sr600 is well worth the money

Great Tone,... But A Few Issues

The tonal possibilities are endless, the look and feel are great. The only issue I had with it is the knobs are all up in your way. Picking for about two minutes I realized my volume was about half of what I started with. Volume knob was getting turned as I was playing, for it's about an inch from the G string. Also the knobs don't allow your fingers a place to go when palm muting. Just need another 1 1/2" of space to work with. This is the only bass I've ever seen like this. It is a trade for the tone you get from it. Still no regrets. Also, if you are a fan of ample treble in your bass tone, the sr600's treble knob will almost shatter your teeth if you want it to.
