Noble bass with Nordstrand pickups
The Ibanez Premium SR1340B-DWF Dual Shadow Burst Flat combines high-quality noble bass attributes with the unbeatable comfortable Soundgear design. While the elaborate construction with precious tonewoods creates the basis for a lively sound, the slim neck profile promises excellent playing characteristics for tight accompaniment lines or virtuoso solo playing. With two Nordstrand Big Single pickups and an active 3-band EQ, the Premium SR1340B Bass elicits versatile Bass sounds from the bass amp with fine detail of well-dosed growl. High-quality Hardware in the form of Ibanez Mono-Rail single bridges and tuning stable Gotoh tuners completes the Premium SR1340B-DWF Dual Shadow Burst Flat bass guitar from Ibanez.
Elaborate construction with fine woods
Ibanez pays special attention to premium woods and excellent playing characteristics in the elaborate construction of the SR1340B Soundgear Bass. The African mahogany body supports a multi-piece top made of ash wood and panga panga, and the low-profile, streamlined design is stable and comfortable on the player. Ibanez also relies on KTS titanium rods to reinforce the bolt-on, five-piece neck made of purpleheart and p anga panga. With the pleasantly flat "Atlas-4" profile, the Bass also offers first-class playing characteristics for playfully easy grooving on the 24-fret Panga Panga fingerboard.
Nordstrand pickups and active EQ
For the electric tone conversion of the Premium SR1340B E-Bass Ibanez relies on pickups from the American bass specialists Nordstrand. Placed in the neck and bridge positions, the Nordstrand Big Single pickups equipped with offset Alnico pole pieces deliver a finely resolved sound with the perfect dose of aggressive growl to assert itself even in a dense band mix. For precise sound customization, the E-Bass also features an active Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band equalizer, whose center control has three selectable center frequencies. Thanks to the EQ bypass switch, the E-Bass can also be played in classic passive mode to achieve a particularly direct sound.
Top-class hardware equipment
Last but not least, Ibanez equips the Premium SR1340B-DWF Dual Shadow Burst Flat with top-notch Hardware that can handle professional stage and studio use with unwavering reliability. On the body, four Ibanez MR5S mono-rail bridges guarantee not only optimal intonation and string action adjustment, but also an even Sustain of each string. Behind the Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut, encapsulated Gotoh bass machine heads also ensure precise and robust tuning of the bass guitar.
