Ibanez EHB1005F Bass Workshop Fretless, Arctic Ocean Matte - Secondhand

Full Description

Brilliant Bartolinis

With a pair of Bartolini pickups at your back, your basslines will explode with richness, fullness, and character. Their tonal range is huge – capable of handling any genre. The bridge pickup is raw and powerful, beefing up every note and punching through the mix like a wrecking ball. The neck is warmer and smoother – perfect for blending in with other instruments and bringing out fatness in your riffs. Both have a tight bottom end and punchy midrange, with the double coil design adding tonnes of punch. As if that weren't enough, there's also a three-band EQ control section, where you can tinker until you've found your perfect tone. It really doesn't get better than this.

Play for days

It's all about the feel. And the EHB1500F has it in droves. A smooth roasted maple neck offers the perfect playing experience, being smooth and easy to navigate. Your playing will be liberated. And the richlite fretboard has a superb response to your fretting, offering unparalleled smoothness and a luxurious feel. Armed with these, you'll be truly unstoppable. Being heat-treated, the roasted maple also offers an additional degree of stability and moisture resistance for improved durability.

The headless beast

Don't worry, you haven't lost your head. This is a headless bass, which comes with a unique set of advantages. First, it reduces the overall weight, giving your shoulders some well-earned respite. And it helps with balance, reducing the 'nose-dive' of the guitar for unrivalled stability onstage. It also improves tuning stability, keeping your strings singing all day long. Not to mention the fact that it looks super cool, too.

Stage-ready

Are you ready? The EHB1500 certainly is, with an array of hardware to keep everything running smoothly. An MR5H bridge offers incredible tuning stability, whilst maximising the resonance and sustain of this bass for a seamless performance. Ibanez string locks serve as the perfect supports, keeping each string in place for complete reliability. Luminescent side dots also help you to see the fretboard in the dark, so you can keep your playing ultra-tight at all times. And there's a gigbag included for safe transportation. This is the bass of the future.
