Two of the stiffest and most musical hardwoods paired together to provide a slim neck with reliable long-term harmony.
Panga Panga features a beautiful wood grain that produces tight lows and mids, as well as a sharp attack in the highs.
A superb poplar top and okoume body deliver a bright and solid sound.
Bartolini® BH2 pickups offer tight bass, punchy mids, and smooth response. The dual-coil configuration maximizes articulation, and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced pickup response from string to string.
The MR5S bridge features adjustable saddles for variable string spacing of +/- 1.5 mm, meeting the specific string spacing needs of each bassist.
The Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band equalizer is our latest refinement of the simple and straightforward EQ control concept. The Mid Control Boost and Cut are both centered on slightly different frequencies, an innovation that allows for a predefined range of the most favorable bass tones.
Precise tone control, including a switch to select passive-only operation. When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble control knob becomes the master tone control for the passive circuit.
Tension equalization creates a livelier and more open sound. But the design also improves player comfort. The multi-scale construction ergonomically coordinates with how the player’s hand moves up and down the neck, facilitating fast and comfortable playing.
