Where are Ibanez basses made?

Ibanez basses are made in different factories depending on the series they belong to. The Prestige Series are made in Japan, whereas the Premium and Standard Series are made in Indonesia. This is the same as Ibanez electric guitars.

Some Ibanez basses have 'active electronics'. What does this mean?

Active electronics refers to either the pickups, the tone controls or both being powered by a 9v battery to achieve more powerful and enhanced results. Active pickups tend to have high outputs and high amounts of background noise making them perfect for heavier music styles. Active tone controls allow you to boost and cut certain frequencies by a certain amount of decibels, allowing the bassist an impressive level of tonal control. Funk bassists particularly love this but all bass players can make good use of these features.

What styles of music can you play on Ibanez bass guitars?

Ibanez bass guitars are renowned for making excellent metal and hard rock basses. This is thanks to their fast necks and powerful active electronics. These features also make them popular among jazz and R&B artists as well as general session bassists who love the control they have at their fingertips.

What kind of music can I play on an Ibanez bass?

Ibanez have such a wide range of bass instruments available, there is something for every type of bassist. Whether you play funk, jazz, rock, metal or any combination of these, there will be an Ibanez bass that will allow you to play any style you desire.

What is the best selling Ibanez bass?

The best-selling Ibanez bass is the GSR180, an extremely affordable model with a great range of features such as active electronics and a slim, playable neck. After that, the next most popular Ibanez bass is the SR300, something of an upgraded version of the GSR180 with a slightly chunkier body design. Both of these models are available in a variety of finishes and are constantly kept stock in each of our UK stores.
