Ibanez

collapse expand iconDescription

The Ibanez EHB1006MS 6-string multi-scale bass combines headless construction, ergonomic design and a chambered body into a lightweight and comfortable instrument that’s ideal for long sets or practice sessions. The 5-piece roasted maple/walnut neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance and tolerance of temperature changes, while the graphite reinforcement rods deliver massive sustain. Enjoy rich, balanced attack from the heat-treated roasted birdseye maple fretboard, topped with 24 medium stainless-steel frets, and the solid, natural tone of the American basswood body.

Its sound is driven by a set of T1 humbucking pickups, which have separate dual-coil construction for a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range and smooth response. In addition to being suited for a variety of genres and playstyles, you can adjust the height of each single coil individually for precise sound shaping.  The EQ bypass control offers precision tonal adjustments, including a switch to choose passive-only operation. When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble tone control knob becomes the global tone control for the passive circuit. Customize your sound further with the Vari-mid 3-band EQ, featuring a variable mid-frequency control which allows you to dial in a wide range of sounds. The MR5HS bridge is designed specially for EHB basses and features a wide intonation range. Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer, and the saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm. Teflon washers are used on each tuner for a smooth tuning action. Additional appointments include Ibanez custom headpieces to set and release strings, Schaller S-Lock strap pins, a slanted body at the back, comfortably rounded body edge and detachable finger ramp. Comes with a specially designed Ibanez gig bag.

    This instrument became the best I've ever played in my life since the second I grabbed it. It's brilliant, and cheap. It's a dingwall but cheaper, in a good way, I mean. It's feel is brilliant, it's playability is brilliant. I love Ibanez, and after getting this bass, I love them more

    All guitars vary depending on the density of the wood. Manufacturers usually only spec size and type of wood. Guitars are generally between 6 and 12 lbs. They can be more. The only way to know the weight of an individual instrument is to weigh it. This will be approximately 7.5 – 9.0 lbs
