Ibanez Premium SR2405W - Brown Topaz Burst Low Gloss

Boutique-quality Bass Value from Ibanez
What a beauty, and such monstrous tone! The Ibanez Premium SR2405W electric bass guitar starts with a mahogany body, topped with gloriously figured maple and panga panga. Then add a fast 5-piece neck, decked out with a smooth panga panga fingerboard embellished with elegant abalone oval inlays. This is one great-looking, great-playing bass. Still, the Premium SR2405W's first priority is tone, and that's just what the two Aguilar Super Double pickups deliver: fat, punchy, beautifully balanced tone. And with the 3-band EQ, you'll have more than enough sound-shaping power to hit the stage or studio with any band. Sweetwater's advice: When you're ready to step up your bass game, the Ibanez Premium SR2405W is an excellent choice.




Acclaimed SR Premium quality
Pro players and gear journalists alike have been singing the praises of the Ibanez SR Premium line since its introduction. Crafted by the company's elite Premium luthiers, SR2405W-series basses share many of the high-end appointments of the renowned Prestige line. This singular attention to detail manifests itself in features like ultra-smooth hand-crimped frets and the Mono-Rail bridge — an ingenious design that kills off undesirable sympathetic vibrations while isolating and optimizing string harmonics. It all adds up to a boutique-quality bass that's an incredible value.




Precision crafted with premium materials
Ibanez makes some very fine instruments, and the Premium SR2405W bass is no exception. Ibanez chose a mahogany body for warmth, low-end impact, and rich sustain. It's topped with poplar burl, a striking look that also enhances your tone. And the 5-piece panga panga/purpleheart neck with KTS titanium rods doesn't just provide striking visual detail, it's incredibly strong to resist warping and twisting over the years. The neck is capped with a silky-smooth panga panga fingerboard, graced with abalone oval inlays. In spite of these impressively exotic materials, this Premium bass stays true to a foundational element of the SR concept: that of being delightfully lightweight — an ironic contrast to this instrument’s girthy sonic character.




Big, bold tone from Aguilar pickups
Fingers, thumb, or pick — regardless of the musical genre, the Premium SR2405W's electronics have you covered. A pair of Aguilar Super Double pickups delivers huge, round bass tone with rich, solid character. You also have the powerful sound-shaping potential of Ibanez's Custom 3-band EQ, which gives you control over boost/cut for bass, mid, and high frequencies, a mid-frequency switch to fine-tune your midrange, and an EQ bypass. No matter what tonal texture your music calls for, this instrument's superb electronics will get you there fast.




Mono-rail bridge enhances definition and sustain
At Ibanez, there's genius in the details. Like the Premium SR2405W's innovative Mono-rail 5S bridge with locking saddles, which allows each string to fully vibrate without any interference from the other strings. That means that no matter how fast you play across the strings, each note will ring clear and true. Optimized note separation is but half the story. The Mono-rail bridge design also maximizes string vibration transfer to the body, which enhances sustain.




Ibanez: a brief history
Ibanez began its life in 1908 as the Hoshino Gakki company in Nagoya, Japan. However, the company didn't get into the guitar business until 1929, when they started importing Salvador Ibanez guitars from Spain. In 1935, Hoshino Gakki began building Spanish acoustic guitars under the "Ibanez Salvador" name, which was later shortened to "Ibanez." Although Ibanez began manufacturing electric guitars in 1957, the company was relatively unknown in the West until the 1960s, when they started producing guitars based on American designs. By the late 1970s, Ibanez had stopped producing derivative guitars and had begun manufacturing the original designs that the company is now known for. Ibanez is also famous for their effect pedals (most notably the Tube Screamer) and guitar amplifiers.
