Ibanez GSR205B Gio Electric 5-String Bass, Walnut Flat

The SR-type bass guitars have been a household name for over 25 years and thank their existence to a growing need for an alternative to higher-end bass guitars. This GSR180 model has been fitted with a maple neck and a 22-fret purpleheart fretboard laid in with white position dots. Two Dynamix J pickups, one at the neck and one at the Ibanez B10 bridge, literally ensure dynamically versatile, punchy tone and make sure you’re getting a lot of guitar, for a little money.

The mahogany body has a Walnut Flat finish and has been fitted with a maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fretboard. This wood combination shapes a warm and round foundation sound and ensures plenty of sustain. All of this natural tone is then registered by a mounted pair of Ibanez Dynamix humbuckers, each provided with a dedicated volume control to find the perfect sweet spot. Both pickups shape a solid amplified sound that can be made to rumble and growl by engaging the extra power injected by the active bass-boost function, while that extra-deep, extra 5th string adds a nice thick under layer to your note palette.
