Ibanez SR505A Bass Guitar 5 String, Mahogany Brown Burst Low Gloss
£629.00 Inc. Vat
Comfortable SR design with extended range
The SR505A retains the familiar, comfortable feel that SR basses are known for while adding the flexibility of a low B string. Its slim neck profile and compact body design make it easy to adapt to five-string playing for players moving up from a four-string. The lightweight construction helps reduce fatigue during long rehearsals or gigs, while the balanced body shape keeps the instrument stable whether seated or standing.
Stable neck with consistent feel
The 5-piece roasted maple and walnut neck is heat treated to improve strength, durability and resistance to environmental changes. This construction helps the neck remain consistent over time, reducing the need for frequent setup adjustments. Medium frets provide a familiar playing feel that supports accurate intonation, while the rosewood fretboard delivers a balanced tonal response with a focused midrange that works well across a wide range of genres.
Clear, punchy pickups with flexible control
Bartolini BH2 pickups deliver a tight low end, punchy midrange and smooth overall response that suits both live and studio use. Their dual-coil design ensures even output across all five strings, keeping the low B defined and controlled. The custom 3-band EQ offers straightforward tone shaping, while the 3-way mid frequency switch allows you to fine-tune your sound to sit comfortably in different mixes.
The MR5S bridge features adjustable saddles, allowing you to tailor string spacing to your playing style. An EQ bypass switch gives you instant access to a passive-style signal, with the treble control acting as a global tone control when bypassed. Combined with reliable hardware and a durable low gloss finish, the SR505A is built as a no-nonsense five-string bass ready for regular rehearsals, sessions and gigging.
