Ibanez SR305E Standard 5 String Electric Bass

Comfortable SR Series 5-string bass with PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups, active 3-band EQ and versatile Power Tap switching

The Ibanez SR305E Standard 5 String Electric Bass gives players the fast feel, balanced body design and flexible tone control that have made the SR series a long-running favourite among working bassists. Built with an okoume body, SR5 5-piece maple/walnut neck and jatoba fretboard, the SR305E is designed for comfortable playability, clear attack and solid low-end response. Its PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups and Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ with 3-way Power Tap switch make it easy to move between articulate single-coil-style tones, full humbucking warmth and enhanced low-end power.

Features

The SR body shape is known for its slim, comfortable feel, making this 5-string easy to handle during long rehearsals, live sets and recording sessions. The okoume body provides a bright, solid response, while the contoured design helps the bass sit naturally against the player.

The SR5 5-piece maple/walnut neck provides strength, stability and clear note attack. A jatoba fretboard adds a rich midrange character with a crisp top end, while 24 medium frets give players a wide usable range for groove work, melodic lines and upper-register playing.

PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups deliver a stronger signal with detailed harmonic response and plenty of low-end support. They are well suited for players who need one bass to cover modern rock, worship, pop, funk, metal, recording and general live performance.

The Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ works with the 3-way Power Tap switch for a wide range of usable bass tones. Tap mode offers punch and articulation, series mode delivers a fuller humbucking sound, and Power Tap mode combines single-coil clarity with added low-end weight.
