Ibanez SR505AMHL 5-String Bass – Mahogany Brown Burst Low Gloss

The Ibanez SR505AMHL continues the legacy of the SR series with a sleek, lightweight design and fast playability tailored for modern bass players. This 5-string model pairs an ergonomic okoume body with Ibanez’s ultra-comfortable SR5 neck profile, delivering effortless movement across the fingerboard and exceptional comfort for long playing sessions.

Equipped with Bartolini® BH2 passive pickups and Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ, the SR505AMHL offers a wide tonal palette—from tight, focused lows to punchy mids and smooth highs. With a built-in EQ bypass and selectable mid frequencies, it adapts easily to any playing style or musical setting.

Key Features

• SR505AMHL Model: Finished in Mahogany Brown Burst Low Gloss for a refined, modern aesthetic.
• 5pc Roasted Maple/Walnut SR5 Neck: Slim, fast neck profile engineered for stability, durability, and resistance to humidity and temperature changes.
• Rosewood Fretboard with Abalone Oval Inlays: Provides balanced tone with focused mids and classic SR styling.
• 24 Medium Frets: Ensure accurate, comfortable playability across the full 34" scale.
• Okoume Body: Lightweight and resonant with a bright, solid tonal character.
• Bartolini® BH2 Pickups (Passive): Dual-coil pickups deliver tight lows, punchy mids, and smooth response with excellent string-to-string balance.
• Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-Band EQ (Active): Simple, effective tone shaping with bass, mid, and treble control.
• EQ Bypass Switch: Enables passive operation; treble knob becomes a global tone control when engaged.
• 3-Way Mid Frequency Switch: Select between 250Hz, 450Hz, and 700Hz for flexible midrange shaping.
• MR5S Bridge: Adjustable saddles with 16.5mm spacing and +/- 1.5mm adjustment for personalized setup.

Why It Stands Out

The SR505AMHL offers boutique-inspired playability and tonal flexibility at an accessible price point. Its slim neck, lightweight construction, and versatile electronics make it ideal for gigging musicians, recording players, and advancing bassists who need one instrument that can cover a wide range of styles—from rock and pop to fusion, worship, and beyond.
