Ibanez SR370E Soundgear Natural Browned Burst

General

This Ibanez SR370E offers remarkably good performance for a bass guitar with a price that's only a little higher than that of most budget models. As a matter of fact, it even holds out on the stage thanks to extremely solid hardware and powerful Ibanez PowerSpan pickups. This flawlessly-finished bass has a Soundgear-style body and a Natural Browned Burst coating, and is a perfect investment for beginners, or more seasoned players wanting a versatile back-up instrument.

Wood & Construction

The ergonomic body of the SR370E is made completely out of maple, resulting in a full and bright foundation sound. For the 5-piece neck, Ibanez used a combination of maple and walnut, while the fretboard is jatoba to guarantee warm harmonics. This bass has a characteristically thin body and needless to say, that means the weight is limited to enhance playing comfort. In terms of sound and construction, you really can't go wrong with the SR370E.

Hardware and Electronics

Ibanez understand that the quality of the hardware and electronics can make or break an instrument, which is why they've equipped this bass with durable machine heads and a remarkably stable Accu-cast B120 bridge. The latter is designed to ensure you maintain control over even the heaviest bass strings. Finally, this bass features two Ibanez PowerSpan humbuckers and comprehensive active tone controls. All of this adds up to an instrument that will give you power, punch, and versatility at an amazingly affordable price.
