    SOUNDS

    A large panel of the circuit is available thanks to the active preamp. The slap funk to trip hop big vroom. Its very accurate compared to other basses in the same range

    OVERALL OPINION

    Not too good bass, notice to fill, but for now, very excited. 549 euros. I tried a lot, and the tops spring edb550 share the range of sounds it can produce, accuracy and ease of playing it aporte, even compared to lower the upper range.

    I play on an amp ashdown electric blue 180 to 180 watts and sound satisfies me !!!!!!!!!
    I am delighted!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have been using ending for six months, and loving jazz bass sound, with a particular grain, I am ready!
    The particular feature I like most is the Duncan pickups and the weight of the instrument.
    The report quality price seems right.
    I highly recommend this bass. ^ ^

    I will not repeat it all here. Check out Ibanez directly on the site if you want more dtails. You'll find close-up photos of each party.
    It just trslgre (it's a feather compared a jazz bass or even a Squier) and very easy to play. I started the low six months ago and I soon was able to rgaler.
    One default: it comes with strings that personally I find lame (Elixir pulling 45/100). Prvoyez to change by DR or Dean Markley Blue Steel (a bit more expensive but this is good) and take the time to rgler at the bridge because mine just curled to beginners.

    UTILIZATION

    The look
    she is gorgeous! In any case, fans of Eternal diffrent forms and irremovable fender Jazzbass agree. The finish is perfect, but a rgal. I love it.

    The handle
    Channel 24 frets. Trs of good quality. Composed of two types of wood (bubinga and jatoba) is composed of five spices EDB type 4. It is beautiful but also very comfortable. Easily take control of it is relatively late. I got used to rev quickly.

    SOUNDS

    Microphones
    2 pickups Ibanez / Duncan (JB in the neck and the bridge por JN) assets. It sends many thanks especially on the slap qualiseur (Bass Boost / Cut and Treble Boost / Cut) but you can have a more muted jazz type. Balance between the two microphones Obviously well. I also jou pdalier on a friend with a distortion is not bad either. A range of its wide offering some flexibility in terms of style and taste.

    OVERALL OPINION

    OVERALL RATING
    a big fat 9 / 10 for all of his work. I use it on an amp HARTKE A 100 (which I will critique a next time) and rings of hell, at least in styles that I like to know funk rock fusion.
    I recommend this bass is a great value quality price since it is found around 500 in all good shops.

    The whole body / neck is equilibrated it trslgre (compare the Aria is a joy)

    You can get a good sound, ds when we possde a good amp and a good game,
    in my case, fortunately, the amp is good ... (Makes me a 1 of 2).

    SOUNDS

    I play plutt pop / funk and agrees quite well to the style. The slap is achieved without forcing. I use it with a cube SWR Basic Black (120w), they all get along 2. In addition, the EQ rglages assets are very practical. For example: I bought it new, so the strings sound trs "mtallique" by putting the treble knob at minimum, you can hear the default without the bass sound is too muffled. The knob is amazingly powerful bass, it's really useful to give a boost. Most of the GST, I leave the volume merits, the balance in neutral, low in neutral and for now the treble at the mini, because of the new ropes.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it only for 3 days and it's still a treat even for its price.
    I tried other models (Ibanez btb, Cort, Warwick ...) and it stood out for its simplicity and its lgeret playing comfort

    I bought it at 549 Central Bass, rue de Douai, good home and good advice.

    Bass at center, I t hsitants welcomed by trainees and not informed.
    and in California Bass, I got the dmo egocentric and advice hollow of a Blaz seller.
