Ibanez EHB1506MSBIF EHB Ergonomic Headless 6-String Multi-Scale Bass Guitar, Panga Panga Fretboard, Black Ice Flat
Manufacturer's Description
The EHB's headless construction, contoured body, ergonomic design, and chambered body make for a lightweight and comfortable instrument that's excellent for long sets or practice sessions. Also, the top half of the back of the body is slanted which allows the bass to rest slight closer to your body for better control and a more ergonomic feel. This series also sports a combination of high-quality tone woods and versatile electronics, resulting in a cutting-edge, ultra-modern bass, capable of cutting though the complex landscape of tones required for today's bassist.
The EHB1506MS features a figured Poplar Burl top on an African Mahogany body, a combination that offers warm tones and rich resonance. A 9-piece Pangea Panga/Walnut neck imparts strong attack with tight low-end, while the Panga Panga fretboard delivers ample sustain.
The Nordstrandâ„¢ Big Split linear humbuckers supply a punchy, powerful, and well-balanced tone, taking tonal characteristics from both P and J pickups. The Nordstrands are paired with a 3-band active EQ with a variable mid-frequency. 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 electronics package supplies a variety of different tones suitable for a wide range of styles.
