Bass Workshop

For more than 40 years, Ibanez has pioneered new frontiers in bass development, pushing the boundaries of conventional designs to bass players of all styles, and affording new avenues of expression and creativity. This spirit of exploration has led to the creation of some of the most successful and popular production basses of all time. Following this same drive to bring new and relevant ideas to the musical forefront is what serves as the basis for this ongoing project, dubbed the Ibanez Bass Workshop. The impetus behind each one of these unique instruments comes from a desire by the Ibanez bass development team to satisfy the particular needs of many players. These inventions may not be for everyone, but for those who yearn to explore new sonic vistas through the medium of bass: The Ibanez Bass Workshop project may give you just what you’re looking for.

5pc Jatoba/Walnut neck

The 5pc Jatoba/Walnut neck provides tonal clarity and superior attack.

Rosewood fretboard

Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid-range.

Medium frets

Medium-sized frets enhance the accuracy of your notes.

Okoume body

The Okoume body provides a bright and solid sound.

Bartolini® BH2 pickups

The Bartolini® BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range, and smooth response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing a balanced string-to-string pickup response.

Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ

The Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ is our latest refinement of the concept of simple, straightforward, no-nonsense EQ control. The Boost and Cut for the Mid Control are each centred on slightly different frequencies, an innovation that delivers a preset range of the most favourable bass tones.

Mono-rail bridge

Designed for both stability and sustain, the innovative Ibanez Mono-Rail bridge minimizes cross-talk between strings

EQ bypass switch (passive tone control on treble pot)

The EQ bypass control offers precision tonal adjustments, including a switch to choose passive-only operation. When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble tone control knob becomes the global tone control for the passive circuit.

3-way Mid frequency switch

The 3-way Mid frequency switch allows players to change the mid-tone between 250, 450, and 700 Hz.

Multi-scale

The multi-scale construction equalizes the tension of each string and it helps to create a more ”alive”, open tone. But the design also improves player comfort. The multi-scale construction ergonomically coordinates with the way a player’s hand angles as it moves up and down the neck, facilitating quick, comfortable playing action.
