Enabled, this 5-string is luthite (body "composite" of a density over the whole body and on all models), 24 fret neck, precise mechanical, two microphones paved settings: a master volume, balance microphones A knob acute, serious and with medium frequency, original body shape.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, easy as a ibanez respectable, not too wide and thin enough to cut small mains.La body allows seamless access to acute (one can not do more ...).
This series is nicknamed "Ergodyne" for perfect ergonomics for my taste.
Very good cut (table below for the strings and slap on the back to fit perfectly into the shape of the body) and balanced!
This bass is a real highway speed and sound (just a little time and experience to find the right settings!)

SOUNDS

I have this bass for 7 years and therefore I think a bunch of concerts ... Never a problem! I'm pretty loyal to Ibanez for cela.J have never had bad surprises on any model.
I always set my neck very low with a pull medium or medium-light.Ca never moved, nor Friss, or tune even with large temperature differences (I had to play once to -2 degrees for 2 hours !!!).
Sound level ... wow ... This is the most versatile bass I know for now. It has its specific (fairly neutral, it's true and it is also what I liked) good low (and so serious ... otherwise it sends strong as the amp'm not! I've never exceeded a quarter of the positive knobs bass / treble even if it is not quite as accurate as the other strings, it's true) and treble with an amp for a tweeter is the foot to slap the lens in such a difference but for me this knob on double medium with the frequency setting ... then there is simple one can have anything you want ... as its the infra low (eg for the dub, I swear-it really fart in the glass if desired) to the medium funky or even more aggressive metal, heavy rock or well rounded (blues style)!
In short, between settings tones, frequencies and micro scale ... we all have what you want!.
Now, sure, it has the defect of its quality: it is not typed on a particular sound or style.
I am obliged to put in 10 sound!

OVERALL OPINION

Now I will talk about what this ibanez fache:
-WEIGHT!-No photos, should not have fragilent shoulders and a good back.
It is heavy and frankly it is better a good strap. (I'm also a little jig ... style shrimp as they say in Britain)
His death-catalog!?? (Maybe its weight is for something because its price was extremely attractive for the low price / quality ratio)
-After 5 and 6 years, I joined two of the five mechanical laché.Elles who still work without problems (in fact they are still on) and do not go out of tune, they are just a whole little harder to turn, but good nonetheless!

That, at least, is my most accurate bass for 7 years and I do not part with it one day! (Or so because of my back ...). It's been one of my best choice of bassist!
