The SR1320SB in the SR DNA and Premium Range
Since the late 1980s, the SR series has embodied Ibanez's modern bass: comfort, speed, and versatility. The SR1320SB belongs to the Premium "Designed to Inspire" series, which combines meticulous craftsmanship, high-end wood selection, and professional components to offer an inspiring playing experience on stage and in the studio.
For Which Musicians and Styles?
Designed for intermediate to expert bassists, this SR excels in rock, funk/slap, metal, fusion, and pop. The neck profile promotes speed and precision, while the electronics cover both modern, powerful tones and more organic textures in passive mode.
The Sound
The sandblasted ash top provides attack and definition, while the African mahogany delivers rich mids and generous sustain. The 5-piece panga panga/purpleheart neck, reinforced with titanium rods, stabilizes tuning and enhances resonance. The Nordstrand Big Break pickups, split-coil soapbar format, offer a powerful and gritty range but remain as articulate as single coils, without hum. The Ibanez 3-band preamp, with a 3-position mid-frequency switch, allows precise sculpting of your place in the mix. Activating the bypass switches the bass to passive mode, and the treble knob becomes a master tone control, ideal for more vintage colors.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the most out of this 34" scale SR: a 4-string bass long scale string set (type 45-105 or equivalent according to your preferences), wide non-slip strap (standard strap locks), stable floor stand for bass, clip-on tuner. A spare 9V battery is recommended for the active preamp. The dedicated Ibanez gig bag is included.
