A Bass Designed for Versatility, in the "Soundgear" Spirit
With its easy-to-use electronics and comfort-oriented luthiery, this bass fits within the DNA of modern models made to cover a wide range of situations: rehearsal, home studio, and stage. The idea is clear: to offer an efficient instrument with a contemporary look, capable of quickly adapting to different styles without getting lost in complex settings.
For Which Bassists and Styles?
This electric bass is particularly aimed at beginners and intermediates who want a versatile instrument, easy to adjust, and pleasant to play over time. It suits styles where the bass needs to "hold" the track (rock, pop, funk, variety, worship), while remaining comfortable with more modern and dynamic sounds thanks to the Phat II bass boost.
The Sound
The mahogany body delivers a warm signature, with present low-mids and natural sustain, ideal for anchoring the bass line. The maple neck adds attack and definition, helping maintain clarity, especially when playing fingerstyle or with a pick. The rosewood fingerboard balances the overall feel with a smooth touch and a rounder response in the highs. The pair of pickups PSNDP (P-style at the neck) and PSNDJ (J-style at the bridge) allows navigation between a dense low end and a more snappy, precise sound. The Phat II equalizer acts as a low-end enhancer: useful for thickening slap tones, adding body in a band context, or compensating for overly "thin" headphone monitoring.

As usual neat package thank you Woodbrass.
This Ibanez first prize Made in Indonesia looks quite flattering.
The pluses: a pretty nice aesthetic (for my taste)
A real manual that allows you to make these adjustments without difficulty, which is not necessarily the case in some first price brands (HB).
The cavities receiving the battery and the electronics are very clean.
The solders on the various connections and potentiometers are very clean.
The least: and yes at this price there is no miracle.
The tuning, the height of the strings, the adjustment of the neck need to be reviewed, but nothing surprising when you know that this bass comes from very far away.
A poorly set volume control potentiometer, nothing too bad.
The manual lacks the microphone height adjustment.
On the other hand, on my bass some frets are oxidized which is a great shame for a new bass and that's why I removed a star on my opinion, Polishing these frets will be mandatory during the next string change.
Well I won't comment on the harmonic and the sound of my bass because I must first of all master my first 6 strings but at first glance it sounds pretty good after a long adjustment work.
Very sincerely I do not regret my purchase for a low first price, I was used to a Chinese brand before (HB) and frankly the quality and the finish have nothing to do with it.Automatically translated
