Ibanez EHB Ergonomic Headless 5-string Multi-scale Bass Guitar - Florid Natural Low Gloss Reviews
Ibanez serves up another enchanting low-end concoction with its EHB ergonomic headless multi-scale bass guitar. This unique bass delivers all the sonic power you could ask for without the added weight of a headstock and with a multi-scale fretboard that makes for improved playability all around. Its ergonomic design, fast graphite-reinforced 9-piece panga panga/walnut neck, and smooth bound panga panga fingerboard create the perfect surface for precision fretting and untethered grooving. The poplar burl top greets the eyes on impact, and a selected lightweight African mahogany body contributes to decreased weight while boasting a warm, full tone. The electric stars of this show are the Nordstrand Custom Big Split pickups that offer bassists a vari-mid 3-band EQ and EQ bypass switch to temper their tone. Set the groove free with an EHB bass from Sweetwater!

Solid tone in a short scale
I actually purchased the SMS by mistake, thinking it was the standard scale EHB Multiscale bass. But when I received it I was amazed by the balanced tone and easy playability. The B string is quite usable above the 5th fret and not bad down to a low B.
The sweepable mid control makes the active electronics really useful, but I prefer the passive sound of the Nordstrand pickups.
If you try one out, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
