An indestructible hardware setup with Ibanez MR5HS mono-rails, an Ibanez custom headpiece and Schaller S-Locks strap holders completes the Bass Workshop EHB1005SMS-EMM Emerald Green Metallic matte by Ibanez.

Ibanez Bass Workshop EHB1005SMS-EMM Emerald Green Metallic Matte
This bass has many great features and I was suprised by the light weight, the ergodynamics of the bass, the neck wich is amazing and feels great and the sound which is big and very versatile. The only thing I would chande are the sidemarks. In some dark environments you can't see them. They should have been white.
