Ibanez Gio GSR205B Walnut Flat

What we say:

At A Glance:

This GIO SR bass 5 in String Walnut Flat from Ibanez is well made and full-sized 5 string bass that's been designed for comfort and playability. As part of the GIO series, it's been tailored towards learners and those looking for a high-quality affordable instrument. This model achieves just that, the build quality and components alone make it a great instrument, but the guitar also passes through the same quality assurance process as other Ibanez guitars, really making this a hard to beat guitar in this class.

Features We Love:

5 String Freedom

Many modern styles of music now make use of alternate tunings including ones that go lower than a standard 4 string bass. Having the extra string allows you to play notes that aren't usually possible to achieve making it ideal for those who play a variety of styles or never know where their musical journey may take them.

Pickups

The pair of Dynamix H pickups are ideal for getting some seriously big tones. All 5 strings are brought into the electric world with a clear and pure sounding tone.

EQ Control

The Phat II lets you adjust your sound to shape the perfect tone. Whether you are a smooth jazz enthusiast or a true metal head, the ability to dial in what you need is a true asset.

Highlights:

• A great sounding instrument
• Has gone through the standard Ibanez quality assurance checks
• Comfortable guitar for learning on but good enough to gig with
