Ibanez Bass Workshop EHB1000S Short-Scale Headless Bass Guitar in Pink Gold Metallic Matte
£699.00
Ibanez have combined a striking headless design with their signature advanced playability and versatile electronics – introducing the EHB bass series. Featuring a carefully-calculated headless design, versatile pickups and a number of configurations to choose from, these radical instruments are built with precision performance in mind.
Body & Neck
The body of the EHB series basses has been carefully designed for optimal ergonomics. The bass will sit in a comfortable position whether you’re stood up or sat down, with a set of simple curves and contours that offer excellent mobility and flexibility. The body wood of choice is American Basswood, known for its well-rounded tone and lightweight feel which is further improved by the chambered construction of the body.
The neck employs a 5-piece design comprised of Roasted Maple and Walnut. With the heat treatment of the Maple and a set of Graphite reinforcement rods, expect supreme stability, durability and resistance against the elements. Stainless Steel frets and luminous side dots further emphasise the expertise that has gone into the EHB’s design process.
Electronics & Hardware
On the electronics front, you get a set of Bartolini BH2 pickups with a dual-coil style configuration. These pickups are known for their lower resonant frequency, resulting in a tighter bottom-end and more pronounced midrange. A vari-mid 3-band EQ (complete with bypass switch) offers a wide tonal palette.
Finally, a specially-designed bridge – the MR5HS – is unique in that each bridge piece is independently attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer. Adjustable saddles, Schaller S-lock strap pins and a Neutrik locking jack are the final pro-grade appointments – this bass means business.
