MGR/StraydoggerVery Nice Bass
Published on 03/09/13 at 13:28So look here....this is not an expensive bass guitar. What it is is a very nice inexpensive bass guitar.
UTILIZATION
I put some high quality strings on mine and it is sweet. After I set it up and adjusted everything it plays great.
SOUNDS
With the tone controls and the bass boost it can get lots of tones.
OVERALL OPINION
I bought mine used for $130 with no case. That may be the best $130 I've ever spent. This guitar is fantastic for the money. I also have an Ibanez AS73 6 string that is a wonderful guitar too. Ibanez just knows how to make good guitars that are not expensive............and they do it well!…

MGR/JohnIbanez Soundgear 300DX
Published on 04/30/04 at 15:00I got it at, Marshals music for $299, as a show model.
It is really balanced in my mind with a good string spacing, whoops the ass on a fender p-bass in weight and feel, it seems like half the weight, and handels better. Thin neck,34" scale 24 frets, its a great bass.
some buzz on the e at the 12th, but that depends on the playing style
Good quality, my only issues are minor cosmetic dings, but its an show model so i expected that
Good unit, i would have payed full price for it, doesnt wear down on the shoulder.

MGR/CIbanez SR 300DX
Published on 12/14/03 at 15:00Unbelievable-like new on eBay $150.00
I am a long time guitarist and I decided that learning bass would be cool as I do multi-track recording and want to play several instruments. I was looking for something inexpensive and bought the IBANEZ. I was astonished at the high quality of the guitar (at $150), but more importantly the the nice punchy sound and overall playability. The guitar definitely doesn't look cheap and I actually think that it looks good. I like the active pickups and the guitar doesn't hum (as some Fenders do).
It is not so much don't like, but more surprise that I had to change a battery. This was new to me. When I first got the bass, I was suffering fret buzz and...…

It is not so much don't like, but more surprise that I had to change a battery. This was new to me. When I first got the bass, I was suffering fret buzz and planned to either adjust the truss rod or bridge, but the buzz has mysteriously disappeared. Maybe it was from being shipped. The guitar plays fine now and hold a tuning very well.
As indicated above build quality and finish are first rate. Although I am second owner and the guitar was shipped from the Midwest to the East, the guitar still looks brand new. All of the components look and function fine and I have not had any buttons fall off as did one reviewer.
I'm new at bass, but a very experienced musician. I know instuments and this is a high quality, well thought out guitar. You can produce a variety on tones and it pops nicely if you slap it. I would recommend it to anyone. Unless you are on MTV and have an unlimited budget, this may be your instrument. Add it to your list of models to try out.

sr4 neck : Only 20.5mm thick at the first fret, the 34" scale SR4STND Soundgear neck is thin, fast and strong. The bolted on All Access neck joint allows the easy access to the upper frets associated with set-in and neck thru joints.

except from that this bass has a really funky sound and you can play many styles with it.
there is not much that i dont like except from the pickups, the dont have enough power.
i also dont like the ibanez strings which you get with the bass. i changed them to ernie ball strings.
SR4 neck
3pc. Maple Neck Material
Agathis Body
24/Medium frets
Rosewood Finger Board
B100 bridge
IBZ DXP Neck PU
IBZ DXJ Bridge PU
Pearl Dot Inlay
CH : Hardware Color

on the bottom line this is a truely great buy, ibanez basses are low priced but give excellent results, and this is the best example.
this bass is great for many styles, especially for funk
and the phat adds wonderfull variation to your playing
