ARTICLE N° 117207
The Ibanez SR505N-MAM Midnight Arctic Ocean Matte is a continuation of the SR series, designed for bassists looking for fluid, accurate and comfortable playing on a modern instrument.

Here, the 5-string version extends the range even further, with an extra low string for added depth and possibilities, especially in funk, modern jazz, rock, fusion and contemporary music.

The Okoume body contributes to a pleasant balance and a clear sound response, with good presence and a clean attack. The 5-piece neck in roasted maple and walnut provides stability and consistency, even in the face of variations in temperature or humidity.

This heat treatment also improves the durability of the wood, while retaining a fast feel. The rosewood fingerboard, combined with the medium frets, ensures precise playability and a well-defined mid-range.

As for the electronics, the Nordstrand Big Break soapbar pickups deliver a full, powerful sound with excellent clarity.

The Ibanez Custom 3-band active EQ, complemented by a 3-position midrange selector and EQ bypass, allows you to explore a wide range of textures, from precise playing to a stronger groove. The MR5S bridge, with adjustable string spacing, makes the instrument even more comfortable and adaptable to every playing style.
