Ibanez EHB1265MS EHB Headless Multi-Scale 5-String Bass, Natural Mocha Low Gloss

ITEM SPECIFICS

This awesome Ibanez EHB1265MS EHB Headless Multi-Scale 5-String Bass in a beautiful Natural Mocha Low Gloss over a Walnut top and Swamp Ash body is an ergonomically-playing force to be reckoned with.

The EHB’s headless construction and specially designed body enable the player to maintain a similar playing position whether seated or standing.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. 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. There is extra carving on the back of the body behind the lower horn for easier upper fret access.

The 9-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck provides superior note attack, tight lows and increased sustain with the Panga Panga fretboard. Luminescent side dot inlay provides clear visibility in dark environments.

The Bartolini® BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range, and smooth response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response. 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.

Rounding out the feature set are Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack holding the strap and cable securely, while a detachable finger ramp is included for comfortable fingerstyle playing.
