Ultra-accommodating SR4 feel

Ibanez's SR line of electric bass guitars has long been considered one of the most comfortable instruments for players who appreciate sleek lines and fast playability. The SR Standard body boasts that iconic, sculpted shape that seems to naturally hug your body without ever getting in the way of your performance. Its SR4 neck features a narrow nut and thin contour, aiding in quick string skipping and moving up and down the fretboard with ease.

Veritable sonic potential

The electronics onboard the SR Standard SR300E deliver a huge palette of bass tones. Ibanez outfitted these SR Standard 4-string electric bass guitars with an active 3-band preamp that also features a 3-way Power Tap switch. These electronics harness the power of the bass's PowerSpan Dual Coil neck and bridge pickups while adding plenty of tone-shifting options. The Power Tap switch changes between humbucking and single-coil performance, plus a blend of the two to further extend the SR Standard SR300E’s tonal range.

Ibanez: a brief history

Ibanez began its life in 1908 as the Hoshino Gakki company in Nagoya, Japan. However, the company didn’t get into the guitar business until 1929, when it started importing Salvador Ibanez guitars from Spain. In 1935, Hoshino Gakki began building Spanish acoustic guitars under the “Ibanez Salvador” name, which was later shortened to Ibanez. Although Ibanez began manufacturing electric guitars in 1957, the company was relatively unknown in the West until the 1960s, when it started producing guitars based on American designs. By the late 1970s, Ibanez stopped producing derivative instruments and began manufacturing the innovative, original guitar and bass designs that the company is now known for. Ibanez is also famous for its effect pedals, most notably the Tube Screamer. We proud to offer you such a fine line of distinguished musical instruments.
