At A Glance

While Ibanez are widely known for their high quality metal machines, their excellent level of craft also extends to their other instruments. This acoustic bass is a great for a number of reasons. First and foremost, it has a wonderful natural sound.

The manageable body size and quality woods add to the appeal of this fabulous instrument.

Features We Love:

Grand Concert Body

Comfortable and easy to transport, the body size here is a nice compact size. It is big enough to produce a large sound but small enough that playing it doesn't feel like a burden in your arms.

Pickup/Preamp

Featuring an Ibanez pickup under the saddle and an Ibanez AEQ-2T preamp, you can be sure that your natural tone is relayed into your signal. The onboard tuner is an added bonus and lets you effortlessly check your tuning any time you need to.

Quality Woods

Okoume is the wood of choice here for the top. Not only does it keep a consistent aesthetic with the rest of the bass but it sounds big bodied and full. The Okoume back and sides help to project the sound well so that it sounds good acoustically as well as amplified.

Highlights:

• Highly versatile due to the pickup
• Perfect for those who regularly perform
• Great quality from a well known brand
