Pairing a sleek, sculpted silhouette with precise EQ control and the tonal authority of Nordstrand Big Break pickups, the Ibanez SR500N electric bass guitar brings a bold, aggressive edge to the iconic SR series. Designed for players who want muscular tone without sacrificing clarity or comfort, the SR500N is built on the foundation of a lightweight okoume body and a fast, stable five-piece roasted maple and walnut neck. A rosewood fingerboard with medium frets supports effortless articulation, while Ibanez Custom Electronics provide deep tonal shaping with active/passive switching and three-way mid-frequency control. Nordstrand Big Break pickups offer meaty split-coil tone with true noiseless performance, and Ibanez’s MR5S bridge allows you to customize your setup with adjustable string spacing. From modern rock and funk to heavier styles that demand presence and power, the SR500N delivers a confident, performance-ready voice with unmistakable character.
