Ibanez SR300E Soundgear Midnight Gray Burst Electric Bass Guitar

Descrizione

Soundgear basses have been the solid go-to for modern bassists for decades already, and for good reason. Here, the more-affordable Ibanez Soundgear SR300E comes armed with PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups, active electronics, detailed three-band equalisation with cut and boost, and a three-way selector switch. All of this has been wrapped up in the signature, ultra-modern 300-Series finish, so you get the full comfort of a sleek and rounded SR body, as well as the fluid playability of a thin, snug neck. This bass is also surprisingly lightweight, which not only eases the load on your fingers, hands, and wrists, but your shoulders and back.

The SR300E: High-Grade Playing Comfort, Full Sound

The SR4 neck offers the kind of feather-light playing feel that will not only help beginner's get to grips with their first bass-lines, but ease the transition for any guitarists making the step over to a bass. This comfort is carried through to the deep and elegantly rounded lower cutaway which grants smooth access to the 24th medium fret, and in terms of sound, the nyatoh body lays down its characteristic warmth and fullness, while the maple, jatoba, and walnut used to build the other components round off the foundation and add a touch of bite. Stability and tuning is secured by a solid Accu-cast B120 bridge and a set of durable oil-bed machine heads.

Powerspan Dual Coil Pickups & Ibanez Custom Electronics

The tonal foundation of the solid body combined with the strings is faithfully translated and amplified by a set of two PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups. Compared to the models that made up the previous SR range, the magnetic poles of these passive humbuckers have been left uncovered to inject a little more definition and ensure more than enough output. This configuration alone sets you up with enough versatility to match a wide range of playing styles, but when you add the active preamp, your tonal palette is expanded even further. The Ibanez Custom Electronics control section offers three-band equalisation for in-depth shaping; a balance pot for mixing up the perfect blend of both pickups; a master volume control; and a three-way selector switch that's been dubbed a 'Power Tap Switch'. This special switch kits out the SR300E with three times the sound options, so besides full humbucker tone, you can unleash bright single-coil sound and enjoy the best of both possible worlds.
