Beyond the tonewoods, the SR400EPBDX's tone comes courtesy of two Ibanez-designed PowerSpan humbucking pickups. The bass’ flexible electronics include a 3-way Power Tap switch to toggle between different pickup voicings and a 3-band active EQ that work together to create almost any tone you can imagine. Whether you’re looking for contemporary or classic tones, the Ibanez SR400EPBDX handles it all with ease. Basses this good don’t come around that often, so make sure you grab yours today!
Resonant body woods and comfortable neck
Before the pickups get involved, the tone starts with your bass’ tonewoods. For the SR400EPBDX, Ibanez chose a nyatoh body. Nyatoh, sometimes called nato, has gained a reputation for its warm, mid-forward character that’s oh-so-similar to mahogany. The body comes bolted to a 5-piece maple and walnut neck that adds an extra helping of top-end shimmer. Together, the body and neck deliver truckloads of resonance and sustain that any bass player can appreciate.
PowerSpan pickups and flexible onboard EQ
Ibanez’s proprietary PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups take the classic humbucker design to a new level of performance. These pickups offer a rich tone with smooth top-end harmonics and powerful lows. And with the 3-way Power Tap switch, you can tailor the sound of the pickups to meet your tonal needs. Power Tap offers a powerful humbucker sound, clear single-coil goodness, and an enhanced single-coil sound with extra lows. As if that’s not enough versatility, Ibanez included a 3-band EQ for further shaping your tone.
Reliable tuning stability and solid hardware
Aside from tone, reliable hardware is one of the things that bassists at Sweetwater look for in a new bass. The Ibanez SR400EPBDX comes with an Accu-cast B500 bridge. Aside from efficiently transferring string vibration to the body, the bridge’s adjustable string spacing lets you tailor the feel of the strings to your liking. And since nobody likes knocking their bass out of tune after a single song, Ibanez loaded the SR400EPBDX with their specially designed tuning machines to help keep you in tune for longer.
