Ibanez EHB1006MS EHB Headless Multi-Scale 6-String Bass, Metallic Gray Matte

Manufacturer’s Description

Ibanez EHB1006MS EHB Headless Multi-Scale 6-String Bass, Metallic Gray Matte

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.

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.

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.

5pc Roasted Maple/Walnut neck w/Graphite reinforcement rods

The Roasted Maple in the neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance, and tolerance of temperature changes.

Luminescent side dot inlays

Luminescent side dot inlay provides clear visibility in dark environments.

T1 pickups

The T1 pickup is a humbucker featuring two separate, individually mounted coils that provides tight bass response, punchy mid-range, and clear high-end. It offers flexible voicing suitable for various genres, and the height of each coil can be set individually for highly nuanced adjustments to the tone. On top of its great sound, the physical design features rounded edges for enhanced ergonomic comfort when using the pickup as a thumb rest. Moreover, the individually mounted coils allow them to be positioned slightly offset from one another. This makes it so the surface of the pickup where the player rests their thumb is directly parallel with the strings, which is not typical with most multi scale basses. This design greatly enhances the comfort and playability of the instrument.

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.
