A Modern 5-string Single-cutaway Soundgear
The Ibanez SRSC805 5-string electric bass's thin 5-piece maple and purpleheart neck is one of the fastest necks in its class. It boasts fluid playability and effortless upper fret access. The mahogany body with burl poplar top is comfortable for hours of playing and gets a sustain boost from the added mass of the upper bout. And the Ibanez SRSC805's Bartolini pickups and Ibanez MK-1 3-band EQ will dial in earthshaking lows and crystal-clear highs with ease. The SRSC805 is a boutique 5-string with a ton of sonic firepower.

Built for tone and comfort
The Soundgear series from Ibanez offers players a sleek alternative to many popular basses on the market today. The SRSC805's contoured mahogany body with poplar burl top provides a warm, woody tone that accentuates the instrument's low end. Its thin construction and rounded profile help the bass hug the curves of your body for exceptional comfort. And the upper bout adds sustain to your tone as well as reinforces the bass's neck for fantastic stability.
Fast neck for nimble runs
The Ibanez SRSC805 boasts an effortlessly playable 5-piece maple and purpleheart neck. The neck's thin and narrow contour is a favorite among many bassists, especially here at Sweetwater. Its 5-piece construction and massive neck-to-body contact is very stable under environmental stresses. And the abalone inlays on the purpleheart fingerboard pair beautifully with the neck woods and poplar/mahogany body to complete the picture. And the body's lower cutaway is deep enough to offer great upper-fret access.
Flexible Bartolini electronics
Thanks to the Bartolini MK-1 pickups and Ibanez EQB-IIIS 3-band EQ, there are an incredibly wide range of tones available in this 5-string bass. Soloing the neck pickup with a bit of a bass boost is wonderful for reggae. Just scoop the mids for a very modern slap tone. Or grab a pick, and this system will easily elicit a great hard rock drive. The SRSC805 is great for players who find themselves hopping from genre to genre, or who just want to take total control of their sound.
