The Ibanez Standard SR400EQM-SKG Surreal Black Burst Gloss offers an elegant quilted maple top look as well as a wide range of sounds to suit almost any style of music. This electric bass is constructed with a Nyatoh body and a bolt-on maple walnut neck with Jatoba fretboard, whereas Ibanez PowerSpan pickups and an active 3-band EQ take care of the electric sound conversion. Last but not least, the Ibanez Standard SR400EQM-SKG Surreal Black Burst Gloss features the Ibanez Accu-Cast B300 bridge and precision Ibanez Die-Cast bass tuners.
As a representative of the popular Soundgear family, the Ibanez Standard SR400EQM offers unparalleled playability. Accordingly, the Nyatoh body with its curved line always assumes a perfectly balanced position both on the strap and on the thigh, whereas the five-piece maple walnut neck lies comfortably in the hand thanks to the flat "SR4" profile, so that on the Jatoba fretboard every note plays as if by magic. The quilted maple top is the visual highlight of this electric bass with its intensive grain brought to life by the transparent finish.
The electrical sound conversion of the Ibanez Standard SR400EQM-SKG Surreal Black Burst Gloss is taken care of by two Ibanez PowerSpan dual-coil pickups in the middle and bridge positions, which lay the foundation for a versatile sound spectrum. In addition to the powerful humbucker mode, two further coil combinations can be called up via the "Power Tap" switch. Here, the "Tap" mode delivers transparent single-coil sounds, whereas the "Power Tap" mode stands for fat, yet finely articulated sounds. The active Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ allows for precise tuning of the sound character.
The Ibanez Standard SR400EQM-SKG Surreal Black Burst Gloss is equipped with the high-quality, indestructible hardware typical of Ibanez instruments. The Ibanez Accus-Cast B300 bridge on the body of the instrument supports a smooth sound development and long sustain thanks to its massive construction. Furthermore four individually adjustable string saddles guarantee an optimal adjustment of intonation and string position. On the headstock, designed as a matching headstock, Ibanez die-cast bass tuners ensure precise and stable tuning.
Сразу привлекает внешний вид. Эта красота в жизни выглядит потрясающе! Сочетание цветов идеально.
В руках инструмент удобен, лёгок и эргономичен. Важно знать, что на 5 струнах этого производителя уменьшено расстояние между струнами. Но это дело привычки. Гриф хорошо ложится в руку.
Звук просто универсален. Есть 3 режима работы и регулировка эквалайзера. Можно накрутить разные варианты. Но всё же он останется с узнаваемым характером.
Определённо, это достойный бас из младшей серии SR стандарт.
