Four-string electric bass with burl poplar top, Nordstrand pickups and active 3-band tone control
The Ibanez Premium SR2600E-CBB Cerulean Blue Burst is a particularly noble interpretation of the popular Soundgear design, which sets standards with chic woods and first-class equipment. Accordingly, an intensively drawn Poplar Burl blanket sits on the mahogany body, while the screwed, fifteen-piece neck not only has enormous stability, but also lies comfortably in the hand. Two Nordstrand Big Single pickups and an active 3-band tone control also promise versatile sounds of the highest quality, with which the right groove foundation can be laid for almost any musical style. Last but not least, the Ibanez Premium SR2600 E-Bass has Ibanez Mono-Rail V single bars and precise Gotoh mechanisms.
The Ibanez Premium SR2600E-CBB Cerulean Blue Burst has a sophisticated bass construction and versatile sounds.
Ibanez Soundgear with elaborate construction and noble woods
Based on the ergonomic Soundgear design, the Ibanez SR2600E turns out to be a real noble bass with elaborate construction and noble woods. Accordingly, the mahogany body wears a top made of burl poplar (Poplar Burl), whose intense pattern is brought to life by the transparent blue finish. The absolute highlight of the four-string is undoubtedly the fifteen-piece neck, which combines particularly high stability with an elegant look through the combination of panga panga, maple padouk, amaranth and walnut with KTS titanium inlays. Furthermore, the Ibanez Premium SR2600E convinces with the typical Soundgear playing comfort, which lets every note go by itself.
Nordstrand pickups and active electronics
The Ibanez Premium SR2600E-CBB Cerulean Blue Burst is equipped with two pickups from Nordstrand. As single coils on steroids, Nordstrand's Big Single Pickups deliver an aggressive yet transparent sound at the amplifier that precisely reproduces every note and pushes it into the pit of the stomach with harmonic force. The active Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band tone control is also available for further sound adjustment, whose semi-parametric mid-band allows precise tuning of the sound character. Thanks to the EQ bypass switch, the electric bass can also be played passively.
High-quality hardware in gold
Last but not least, the Ibanez Premium SR2600E-CBB Cerulean Blue Burst has a high-quality hardware equipment whose gold finish underlines the noble claim of the electric bass. Accordingly, four Ibanez Mono-Rail V single bridges are used on the body, with which precise intonation and optimal string position can be comfortably adjusted. The isolation of the string vibration also supports sustain and sound development. In addition, Gotoh bass tuners at the headstock ensure precise and stable tuning.
