Ibanez EHB1506MS EHB Ergonomic Headless 6-String Multi-Scale Bass, Panga Panga Fretboard, Black Ice Flat (B-STOCK)

Manufacturer's Description

Ibanez EHB1506MS EHB Ergonomic Headless 6-String Multi-Scale Bass, Panga Panga Fretboard, Black Ice Flat

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.

A stunning Poplar Burl top and a selected light weight African Mahogany body provides a warm tone with rich resonance.

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 single-coil Nordstrand™ Big Split pickups feature split coils with hum cancelling construction for less noise. Its tone character is a hybrid P/J style and provides a rich and strong, yet well-balanced tone, which fits well with various kinds of playing styles.

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.

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-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack hold the strap and cable securely.

A detachable Finger ramp is included for comfortable finger picking.

Overall Condition

This is a New B-Stock Guitar with the original box and paperwork. Ibanez is very picky on its product quality, a little discolored tiny spot or blemish or little finish run on the finish of the guitar. A lot of times we can't even tell what is the difference between these and the A-stock guitars, but despite any blemishes, they sound, feel, and look amazing!
