Ibanez SR300E-NPM Standard (Navy Planet Matte)

The Ibanez SR300E-NPM Standard (Navy Planet Matte) combines an incomparably high level of playing comfort with a modern, versatile sound spectrum in the best Soundgear tradition. While the streamlined body of Nyatoh and the slender neck of Maple and Walnut contribute to the manoeuvrability of the electric bass, the reworked PowerSpan humbuckers in combination with the active 3-band tone control deliver versatile sounds for every musical style.

Soundgear Playing Comfort
The Ibanez SR300E has a Nyatoh body in the typical flowing Soundgear design that nestles to the player for a stable playing position. The 4-piece bolted neck is made of 5x pieces of Maple and Walnut, while the flat "D" profile lies comfortably in the hand and across the Jatoba fingerboard, allowing for fast basslines and complex grooves.

PowerSpan Pick-Ups
The SR300E is equipped with Ibanez PowerSpan dual coil pick-ups especially designed for this Bass, which (in combination with the active Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band tone control) cover a variable sound spectrum. Whether transparent solo/jazz sounds, dirty rock growl or a full boost from the deepest recesses, this instrument has a setting for every style.

Power Tap Switch
A special feature of the SR300E is the Power Tap switch, which changes the coils of both humbuckers from the powerful series circuit to Tap or PowerTap mode. While the former delivers authentic single coil sounds with typical clarity and tone definition, the latter adds a fundamental bass component to the sound.

High-Quality Hardware
The SR300E strings are supported by an Accu-Cast B120 bridge, the solid construction of which contributes significantly to the long and evenly decaying sustain of the Bass. 19mm string spacing provides space for clean strokes, while the ball ends, which can be hooked in from above, make string changes much easier. The strings are held in place by reliable Die Cast tuners on the headstock, which guarantee precise tuning.
