Lift AV is an authorized reseller for Ibanez.

PLEASE NOTE: All instruments are shipped double-boxed.

*Factory second. This instrument is brand new from the factory in the original packaging as a "factory second". It may have some cosmetic blemishes which are why it is a factory second. Much of the time the blemishes are not noticeable or have been fixed to be almost invisible at the factory. Other times, it may be obvious. We always try to highlight any blemishes we find with photos and a description below. NOTE: Factory Seconds do not come with a warranty.

**This bass is a second stock. It has dents on both sides of the neck. This does not affect playability. But it is very visible. See close-up photos. As a factory second, we always try to highlight any visible defects in photos.

***We inspect for the factory second defects and test each instrument upon receiving them to ensure that they are playable. We do not set up instruments here as we do not have the ability to set up your playing style and preferences.

Features

Ergonomic body design

The EHB’s headless construction and specially designed body enable the player to maintain a similar playing position whether seated or standing.

Slanted body back

The top half of the back of the body is slanted which allows the bass to rest slightly closer to the player’s body for better control and a more ergonomic feel.

Ibanez custom headpieces

Rugged yet light-weight Ibanez custom headpieces enable strings to be easily set and released by a hex wrench from the back side.

Comfortably rounded body edge, Chambered body

Its contoured, ergonomic design and chambered body make for a lightweight, well-balanced, and comfortable instrument that’s excellent for long sets or practice session.

Poplar Burl top and selected light weight African Mahogany body

A stunning Poplar Burl top and a selected light weight African Mahogany body provides a warm tone with rich resonance.

Scooped cut on the body back

There is extra carving on the back of the body behind the lower horn for easier upper fret access.

9pc Panga Panga/Walnut neck w/Graphite reinforcement rods

The 9-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck provides superior note attack, tight lows and increased sustain with the Panga Panga fretboard.

Nordstrand™ Big Split custom pickups

The single-coil Nordstrand™ Big Split pickups feature split coils with hum cancelling construction for less noise. Its tone character is a hybrid P/J style and provides a rich and strong, yet well-balanced tone, which fits well with various kinds of playing styles.

Vari-Mid 3-Band EQ w/EQ bypass switch

The Vari-mid 3-band EQ features a variable mid-frequency control which allows you to dial in an incredibly wide range of sounds. There is also an EQ bypass switch for passive operation with the treble control acting as a passive tone control when the EQ is bypassed.

MR5HS mono rail bridge w/string spacing adjustable saddles

The MR5HS bridge is designed especially for the EHB basses and features wide intonation range. Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer, and the saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm, answering every bassist’s individual string spacing demands, no matter what playing style. Teflon washers are used on each tuner for a smooth tuning action.

Schaller S-Locks strap pins and Neutrik locking jack

Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack hold the strap and cable securely.

Detachable Finger ramp

A detachable Finger ramp is included for comfortable finger picking.

Panga Panga fretboard

Panga Panga features a beautiful wood grain which produces a tight low and mid range, along with a sharp attack on high end.

Luminescent side dot inlays

Luminescent side dot inlay provides clear visibility in dark environments.
