5pc SR-6 Jatoba/Bubinga Bolt-On Neck
Due to the considerable amount od tension on the neck of a 6 string bass, Ibanez have provided a 5 piece Jatoba/Bubinga bolt on neck that has excellent stability and superior tone. Jatoba is a hardwood, known for its rigid strength and Bubinga is known for it's mellow, round tone. Together they create a the perfect neck for this unique instrument.
30" Neck Scale
The Ibanez SRC bass has a scale of 30" as opposed to a 34" bass, this is commonly referred to as a 'short scale' bass. This shorter scale allows guitarists who either double as bassists, or even those looking at becoming a bassist, to feel more at home on an instrument that closer resembles a guitar.
Tuning
The SR Crossover is tuned like a guitar, E to E, only an octave lower, like a bass. This opens up a myriad of creative options for the daring to explore.
Tight End bridge
Ibanez's SRC6-WNF features a low profile bridge that was originally designed for guitarists, which allows for tighter string alignment and a thinner fingerboard. It features saddles that firmly lock to the base plate, this allows the strings to vibrate fully into the body. On top of that saddle height and intonation can be quickly and simply adjusted to make setting up much easier and more efficient.
EMG 35HZ Pickups
The 35HZ Passive Pickup features a dual-coil design for low noise and plenty of output. Using EMG's "CS" design (Ceramic and Steel), this pickup has the punch and fullness of older passive designs along with added brightness for a better-defined tone. EMGHZ features solid bar poles that cover the entire width of the strings so it works great on the 6-string bass.
EBQ-IIID 3-Band EQ
The EQB-IIID is Ibanez's latest refinement on the concept of simple, straightforward, no-nonsense EQ control. The Boost and Cut for the Mid Control are each centered on slightly different frequencies, an innovation that delivers a preset range of the most favorable bass tones.
