Description

Ibanez's SR500E is the company's answer to players seeking a bass that sounds great, plays fast, and looks stunning. With its versatile Bartolini pickups, this axe can cop any sound, from a warm Motown thump to a gutsy rock 'n' roll growl. And thanks to its thin and speedy SR4 neck, the SR500E is a great choice for players looking to build speed and perform blistering bass runs.

The SR500E starts with an Okoume body that sets a strong foundation for its tone - it's deep, rich, and has plenty of midrange punch. Great sound isn't all this bass has to offer, though - it plays remarkably well, too, courtesy of its comfortable SR4 neck and thin 38mm nut width that allows players to perform at break-neck speeds. And thanks to the neck's 5-piece walnut and jatoba construction, it's exceptionally sturdy and stable.

Powering the SR500E is a pair of Bartolini BH2 humbuckers that cover an extensive tonal range. While these pickups excel at churning out thick, midsy tones, they can be tailored to suit any setting, thanks to the 3-band EQ, 3-way mid-frequency switch, and EQ bypass switch on board. Rock, metal, pop, jazz, you name it - the SR500E can be dialed in to ace any sound you're after.

Complete with an Accu-cast B500 bridge and a rosewood fretboard, the Ibanez SR500E is perfect for players seeking a reliable, well-rounded bass with an incredibly versatile sound.
