Get to know them!

Go fretless with the Ibanez GWB35 Gary Willis signature model 5-string bass guitar. Gary Willis, a fusion icon, has designed an affordable bass with Ibanez that incorporates many of the features from his more expensive bass. The light basswood body, maple neck, and ebony fretboard are comfortable enough for marathon jam sessions. The custom wound pickup and 2-band EQ let you sculpt your perfect tone in seconds. From funk to rock to fusion, the Ibanez GWB35 Gary Willis 5-string bass has you covered.

Gary Willis inspired design and functionality

The Ibanez GWB35 Gary Willis signature model bass brings all of Gary's personal tweaks and touches to an affordable bass. Gary's extended cutaway gives you complete access to the fretboard to ensure better intonation in the higher frets. Custom wound pickups offer the quick attack, superior dynamics, and highs that you want from a fretless bass. A custom finger rest/ramp helps you not dig into the strings too deep and gives you a more consistent attack.

Puts signature Ibanez feel into an affordable package

Finally, the feel of a high-end bass loaded into an awesomely reasonable priced package. The Ibanez GWB35 sports Ibanez's signature Gary Willis neck shape for an amazing playing feel. It's got a 3-piece maple neck, a comfortably contoured basswood body, and a fretless ebony fingerboard for classic fretless bass sounds.

Versatile electronics for any style of music

Ibanez basses are used in every style of music from metal to rock to jazz fusion. The versatile pickups and active electronics let you shape your tone to best fit the gig. The Ibanez Gary Willis GWB35 features a custom humbucking pickup to deliver tons of deep bass tones that will cover any style of music you need. A simple active EQ lets you tweak the treble and bass to dial in your ideal sound. From the scooped mids for slapping and popping to massive low-end 5-string rumble the GWB35 can do it all.
