Heavier than expected.

Ranee 27.11.2019

After reading/watching all reviews there are regarding this bass, decided to test one out. Generally all reviews said that it should weight around 3.3 to 3.5 Kg, mine was 4kg so i was a bit disappointed. Comparing to 5 string Fender type basses its still not that heavy, just not what i expected.

Sound wise - nothing to complain about, just what you could expect from these pickups and preamp.

Built quality - almost great. After neck/bridge adjustment still could not make some frets not to buzz. Probably that something a professional luther could fix, but if i buy a new bass i dont want to waste time and money on something like that.

Would i recommend one? If you can get one that weights around 3.5kg, then its a good deal for what it cots. Just be ready that some simple adjustments might be needed.

Tolles Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis für den SR 505E

Triple - B 23.07.2023

Für das Geld - Bartolini Pickups, eine wirklich gute Verarbeitung und ein klarer und drahtiger Sound - insbesondere Slap-Bass-Freunde kommen auf ihre Kosten.
Aber: der Mittenbereich dürfte etwas knurriger sein. Die Vielzahl an Features der aktiven Elektronik überforderte mich persönlich - vielleicht einfach meinem Alter geschuldet...
Den Hals beim Ibanez muss man halt mögen - oder eben nicht... er ist sehr schlank, damit ist das spacing etwas eingeschränkter. Vorteil: dieser 5Saiter ist nicht ganz so schwer wie die allermeisten anderen Bässe.
(Isch hab Rrrrückn'...)
