Description
The Ibanez SR905 Bass Workshop Fretless 5-String Bass is a fantastic instrument that offers quality craftsmanship and a diverse array of thumpin' tones. Featuring a powerful pair of Nordstrand Big Break pickups, a 2-band EQ, and an AeroSilk piezo pickup, this Ibanez bass is an absolute tone monster that can blend into any environment. And, thanks to its half semi-hollow body, it has a rich voice reminiscent of an acoustic bass.
The SR905 Bass Workshop Fretless boasts an okoume body that's half semi-hollow - that's right, you get the punch and sustain of a solid body bass blended with the woody resonance of an acoustic instrument. Paired with the Nordstrand Big Break pickups that deliver a full-bodied tone with deep lows and clear, articulate highs, this bass is a tonal powerhouse that's ready for the stage and the studio. It also sports a 2-band EQ, an active piezo tone control, and an AeroSilk Piezo system that captures the sense of "air" that an upright bass produces.
Aside from its phenomenal voice, the SR905 Bass Workshop Fretless is one of the best-playing basses in our collection. The SRD5 neck is nice and fast, allowing for dexterous solos and speedy bass fills. Meanwhile, the panga panga fingerboard has a delightfully smooth feel and extends up to 30 frets, giving bassists access to notes usually only playable on an upright bass. Other features that make this instrument a top-notch performer include luminescent side dots, an AeroSilk MR5 bridge, and a comfortable 16.5mm string spacing.
Decked out with black hardware and a Brown Topaz Burst Low Gloss finish, the Ibanez SR905 Bass Workshop Fretless 5-String Bass has a stunning aesthetic to match its breathtaking sound. Check it out today if you've been searching for an ultra-versatile fretless bass that plays like a dream!
