The Ibanez SR Workshop Series SRMS805DTW is a five-string electric bass guitar featuring a poplar burl top, a walnut and maple body, a double-cutaway design, and a deep twilight finish. It sports a five-piece, bolt-on walnut/jatoba neck with a bound panga panga fingerboard, 24 medium frets, and a scale measuring 34.0 to 35.5". This multi-scale design accommodates the different hand positions bassists naturally assume when moving around the neck, resulting in a more comfortable experience. It also helps to engender a more open and alive tone from the instrument.

For electronics, this bass offers two dual-coil Bartolini BH2 pickups, which allow for a wide and balanced frequency range with tight lows, punchy mids, and smooth highs. The pickups are passive, but the bass boasts an active EQ section with a bypass switch and a three-way mid-frequency selector. You'll find controls for treble, mid, and bass boost/cut, as well as volume and balance. Strings are affixed to the body by means of a fixed MR5S bridge.

Multi-Scale

Equalized tension helps to create a more "alive," open tone. But the design also improves player comfort. The slant of the fanned frets ergonomically coordinates with the way a player's hand angles as it moves up and down the neck, facilitating quick, comfortable playing action

Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-Band EQ

The custom 3-band EQ with an EQ bypass switch and mid-frequency switch provide precise tonal control, including a switch to choose passive-only operation. When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble tone-control knob becomes the global tone control for the passive circuit

MR5S Bridge

The fixed MR5S bridge facilitates string isolation, as each bridge is independently and securely locked down to the body for maximum vibration transfer without interference. The bridge provides a string spacing of 16.5mm

Bartolini BH2 Pickups

The Bartolini BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy midrange, and smooth response. Coils with lower resonant frequency provide tighter bottom end and a fuller midrange. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response.
