A Comfortable Bass with a Ton of Tones
The Ibanez SR500 4-string electric bass offers one of the most playable necks in its class, with a thin 5-piece jatoba and bubinga combination. You won't believe how fast this neck plays and how effortlessly you can access the upper frets! The mahogany body is nicely balanced and contoured to be comfortable for hours of playing. When you need to deliver earthshaking lows and crystal-clear highs, the Ibanez SR500's Bartolini pickups and MK1 3-band EQ really deliver. This beauty is an amazing player and a great value!
Built for tone and comfort
The Soundgear series from Ibanez offers players a sleek alternative to bass designs that have created the standard. The SR500's contoured mahogany body provides a warm, woody tone, and the fast neck is built to give players a comfortable playing experience. And the SR500 is lightweight, which means you'll get home from the gig and your shoulder and back will thank you.
Fast neck for nimble runs
Ibanez opted for a supremely playable 5-piece jatoba and bubinga neck that feels great in your hand. You get great upper-fret access, and moving up and down the neck is nearly effortless. The nut width is thinner than what you'll find on most bass necks, which further aids the comfort factor. And the rosewood fingerboard pairs beautifully both sonically and visually with the neck woods and mahogany body to complete the picture.
Flexible Bartolini electronics
The Ibanez SR500 doesn't just play great and look great, it sounds amazing as well. The Bartolini MK1-4 pickups are paired with the EQB-IIIS 3-band EQ, which lets you dial in your ideal tone. This is great for players who find themselves hopping from genre to genre or who just want to take total control of their sound. Sweetwater bassists are sure you'll love the SR500 4-string electric bass as much as they do.
