Ibanez GIO GSR200 Bass Guitar Natural Grey Burst
The GIO Bass comes equipped with two powerful Standard Dynamix bass pickups. This tried-and-tested combination, of a punchy "P"-style split coil neck pickup and mellow "J"-style single coil bridge pickup, allows the instrument to achieve everything from warm jazz sounds to thunderous rock tones. The two pickups are wired to individual volume controls and share a master tone control, letting you dial in the perfect sound for your playing style.
Incorporating an individual volume control for each pickup, the GSR200SM allows you to blend both pickup tones to create unique full sounds. The master tone control shapes the bass's frequency response, letting you dial in your own desired preference. Additionally, the built in Phat II EQ circuitry allows active style bass boosting via its one channel EQ preamp, delivering a beefy and deep tone for when you need to add an extra layer of thunder.
