Why is everyone picking on ibanez's naming? The most popular bass series are SR, BTB and EHB. The last digit shows the number of strings. The first digit (or the first two digits if it's a four digit model) shows how high up the range it is...and the MS shows that it's multiscale. It's waaay easier to understand what kind of bass it is than for example Fender with their Chinese, mexican, American, standard, deluxe, reissued and whatever models...

Ibanez naming is awesome. Ehb is the range, 15 is 1500, the base price, the 06 means 6 string. The MS is multiscale. It makes perfect sense to me!

@rl-ub9hx 2 жыл бұрын

1500 isn't the bass price. The 1005 starts at 1299 or so. It's just thier premium tier. 900s used to be thier top now they have 1200-1600 upper mid range they've put out a 2400 which is loaded with Aguilar and is the flagship import. Then next up is the Japanese built.

@jonmuir13 2 жыл бұрын

@@rl-ub9hx the 1500 is the ballpark price of the 1500 bass. The 1005 is more because it’s a 5, and prices go up for ms, and other features.

@rl-ub9hx 2 жыл бұрын

Nah man. It's a good guess but that's not it. Look at the sr500, sr600, the sr1600, the btb806ms, the ehb1506ms is 1899. And those aren't even msrp.

@@rl-ub9hx you just named a bunch of basses that have extra features that raise the base price. They’ve also all gone up at least $100 due to inflation, but I bought an sr300e new for $300, and an sr505e for $600 (the 5 was $100 more)

Really ??? I saw this on Amazon and it said it was 15lb... I didn't know if that was the entire shipping weight or not. I play live and have had 2 back surgery's, so weight, unfortunately, is as big of an issue as tone, feel... & everything else. They don't give the weight on any of the sites and Amazon is the only place I can see weight of the item. I would totally get this 6 string bass if it's 8lb. Thanks for posting that !!!!

I've got the five-string version of this. Killer bass, absolutely stellar for live playing. Cutting tones, powerful EQ, lightweight, fits in a guitar bag and ultra comfortable to play. Not my most comfortable bass for sitting down though, primarily because the added size of the tuners push the neck further away from the player.

I really love your reviews Jayme. Also I have a question to you or someone that already have this bass for a while. How low this instrument can be tuned? Will it maintain standard A tuning without any problem? I am looking for multiscale bass which will be easy to modify in future by exchanging the electronics with DG Tone capsule. This bass seems to be best fit, but I am unsure if it will be be sturdy enough to keep the standard A tuning. Thanks in advance and cheers!

I love this bass but there’s a problem, I ordered this to be tuned to a whole step down, and when I did, it worked great, but when I wanted to tune up to standard tuning, all the strings wouldn’t tune all the way up to and passed standard tuning, so I had to tweak the string Height for it to tune higher, and all the strings were fine, except the E string, which is always flat when I would try to tune up the tuning peg got tighter and tighter, and wouldn’t move. Can someone explain what is going on?

Already owned one. It had everything to be perfect on paper, but was a piece of crap in the real world. Poor execution and QC. Couldnt even use some frets cause it would choke the string.
