The Ibanez SRD900 Bass Workshop 4-String Right-Handed Electric Bass Guitar in Cosmic Blue Starburst Low Gloss features a Panga Panga fingerboard that extends the entire length of the neck, offering a total of 30 frets. It also features semi-hollow construction, adding a rich acoustic character to the tone. For more than 40 years, Ibanez has pioneered new frontiers in bass development, pushing the boundaries of conventional designs to bass players of all styles, affording new avenues of expression and creativity. This spirit of exploration has led to the creation of some of the most successful and popular production basses of all time. Following this same drive to bring new and relevant ideas to the musical forefront is what serves as the basis for this ongoing project, dubbed the Ibanez Bass Workshop. The impetus behind each one of these unique instruments comes from a desire by the Ibanez bass development team to satisfy the particular needs of many players. These inventions may not be for everyone, but for those who yearn to explore new sonic vistas through the medium of bass: The Ibanez Bass Workshop project may give you just what you are looking for. The 5pc maple and walnut neck provides tonal clarity and superior attack. The Panga Panga fingerboard features a beautiful wood grain which produces a tight low and mid-range, along with a sharp attack on high end. Medium-sized frets enhance the accuracy of your notes. A beautiful flamed maple top over an okoume body provides a bright and powerful sound. Nordstrand ‘Big Break' pickups cram a powerful split coil into a soapbar-style pickup, producing a full-bodied, powerful, aggressive tonal texture, while retaining the clarity that is characteristic of single coil tone with noiseless performance. The custom bridge contains the magic of the AeroSilk Piezo system to provide that sense of ‘air' that characterizes upright sound.
