Sporting sleekly contoured African mahogany body, gorgeous walnut\/panga panga\/maple top, rock-solid 5-piece panga panga\/purpleheart neck, and bound panga panga fingerboard, the SR1355B is a boutique-quality instrument with flawless playability. That quality is borne out by its pair of aggressive Nordstrand Big Single pickups, which deliver massive, roaring tone infused with monumental sustain. The 5-piece neck is strong and sturdy, with premium tuners on one end and a Mono-rail bridge at the other. Custom Ibanez electronics with 3-band EQ complete the setup.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMassive, aggressive tone from Nordstrand pickups\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith a “super-packed” coil, the Big Single is considered by Nordstrand to be the \"tonal giant\" of their pickup offerings. Ibanez spec’d a pair of these aggressive-sounding single-coil monsters for the Premium SR1355B. In addition, you have the powerful sound-shaping capabilities 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. Fingers, thumb, or pick — the SR1355B’s electronics have you covered.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eMono-rail bridge enhances definition and sustain\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIbanez specified their excellent Mono-rail 5 bridge for the Premium SR1355B. Unlike single-body bridges, each Mono-rail saddle is completely separate from the others. This does two things for you. First, since they aren’t connected, the saddles create minimal sympathetic vibration. This prevents unused strings from ringing. Second, each saddle is double-anchored, allowing energy to transfer efficiently between the string and the body. As a result, bassists here at Sweetwater are raving about the SR1355B’s astonishing clarity and sustain.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eIbanez: a brief history\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIbanez 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 it 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 it started producing guitars based on American designs. By the late 1970s, Ibanez stopped producing derivative instruments and began manufacturing the innovative original guitar and bass designs that the company is now known for. Ibanez is also famous for its effect pedals, most notably the Tube Screamer. Music Experience is proud to offer to you such a fine line of distinguished musical instruments.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Ibanez Says...\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor 30 years the SR has given bass players a modern alternative.
