Description

The Ibanez SR500 is a modern bass ready and waiting to suit any contemporary player.

For over 30 years, the SR has been Ibanez’s staple bass shape, always pushing the boundaries of versatility and undeniably smooth playability.

Custom Preamp

The SR500 houses a custom electronics preamp inside its Okoume body. Controls include bass, treble and mids boost and cut knobs, as well as a frequency selector and balancer.

This lets you shape the sound exactly how you want, to any style of music or position in a mix.

It’s equipped with two Bartolini BH2 pickups, known for their warm, fat low end whilst retaining response and tightness.   

Setup

Tinker with the SR to suit your playing style and needs.

The large cutaway to the body just before the neck allows for easy access to the truss rod. While the bridge utilises adjustable saddles, letting you change the distance between each string.

Play seamlessly down the smooth five-piece Jatoba and Walnut neck any bassist would find comfortable. The body is lightweight and ergonomic, giving the SR500 a high-quality playing experience.

Bass Guitars

Bass guitars form the backbone of a band’s sound, sitting between rhythm and harmony to give music depth, weight, and movement. Available in electric and acoustic forms, they focus on delivering strong, controlled low frequencies while remaining clear and responsive to playing dynamics. Factors like scale length, string type, and pickup design all influence tone and feel, allowing bass guitars to suit a wide range of styles and techniques. Whether laying down solid grooves or exploring more melodic lines, a good bass guitar anchors the music and brings everything together.

Whether you want a clean volume lift for solos or a touch of grit to wake up your tone, a good boost adds clarity, punch, and presence without changing your core sound. Simple, powerful, and essential on any board, a boost pedal can turn a good tone into a great one with just one stomp.
