Massively versatile electronics

To give this bass monumental tonal flexibility, Ibanez started by equipping it with a pair of Nordstrand Big Break pickups. Exclusive to Ibanez bass guitars, the Nordstrand Big Break leverages a beefy split coil inside a soapbar-type housing to deliver powerful, full-bodied, and aggressive tone noiselessly, while retaining the clarity of a single-coil design. Then Ibanez added a potent custom preamp, ensuring a strong and clear signal that drives long cable runs and complex effects chains, as well as the sound-shaping potential of 2-band EQ. But where it gets really interesting is the inclusion of a bridge with unique saddles specially designed to work in concert with the installed piezo pickups. So, in addition to a vast arsenal of electric bass tones, you also have access to a palette of upright acoustic double bass sounds. Fingers, thumb, pick — or even bowed — no matter what tonal texture your music calls for, this instrument’s superb electronics will get you there fast.

Ibanez: guitar and bass powerhouse

Ibanez’s obsessive attention to detail has made the company a global guitar and bass powerhouse, but it didn’t happen overnight. 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 started 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 began manufacturing the innovative, original guitar and bass designs that the company is now known for. The company is also famous for its effect pedals, most notably the Tube Screamer. We are proud to offer you such a fine line of distinguished musical instruments.
