The forums and reviews are raving about the SR Premium, built for the working pro. Our 25th SR Anniversary Model is a Premium at its core, but with a twist—an exotic Padauk top. This wood’s subtle reddish hue has long captivated fine woodworkers and revisits one of the most popular tops in SR history. Made by Ibanez Premium factory. USA Nordstrand "Big Single" pickups provide huge, full, loud, and aggressive single-coil tone. EQB-IIISC 3-band EQ, with Mid frequency switch and eq bypass switch, gives you a world of possibilities in tone. Mono-Rail IV bridge with locking saddles allows each string to vibrate fully with no interference from the other strings. Case included.
Any bass that takes the stage night after night with Arch Enemy has to take a brutal pounding without sacrificing tone. Made to Sharlee’s custom specs with powerful PFR pickups and Iron Cross neck inlays, the Iceman-inspired SDB2 looks as sinister as it sounds. The Mono-Rail IV bridge with locking saddles allows each string to vibrate fully with no interference from the other strings. Case included.
With a focus on articulation and clarity of tone, we built the AEB from the ground up. Bassists love the feel of the 32" scale. Unplugged you'll find that the big bodied-ness of this bass lends an authoritative foundation to which to any acoustic arrangement. Plug it in and send your signal through the onboard Ibanez SPT preamp, and prepare to move the people. The AEGB is as feature-rich as its bigger brother but more comfortable for smaller framed players. The AEGB's relatively compact body offers more comfortable playability. The Ibanez SPT preamp has a 3-band tone control and shape control along with a built-in electronic tuner. In addition to the 1/4" output jack, a balanced XLR jack is included for direct connection to a PA system. AA battery operation avoids the difficulty in finding replacement batteries.

The SR Premium is the Ibanez bass made for the working pro. Building on many of the Prestige's high-end appointments, this SR is crafted by our Premium facility in Indonesia. Super-smooth hand crimped frets, built-in-the-USA Nordstrand "Big Single" pickups, and the Mono-Rail IV bridge are just some of the features that set this instrument in a class far exceeding its reasonable price. The premium fret edges are processed to be specially rounded for smooth play and comfortable neck grip. Ovankol top lamination gives the bass a premium feel along with a strong presence. Nordstrand "Big Single" crams as meaty a single coil as can fit in a soapbar style pickup, producing a full-bodied, powerful, aggressive tonal texture, while still retaining the clarity that's characteristic of single coil pickups. The EQBIIISC is a customized 3-band EQ and a dedicated preamp for Nordstrand pickups for further pure and wider frequency response. This preamp system is equipped with an EQ bypass switch and a mid-frequency select switch(250Hz or 600Hz). Gigbag included.
