Ibanez GSR 180 Black - 4-String Electric Bass

I needed a bass guitar purely for recording in an amateur home studio and have always associated Ibanez with quality and reliability and this did not disapoint. The frets were all nicely finished, no rough edges. It has some weight to it but is very comforable to play on my lap while sitting down. I did not need to do much in the way of setting it up, the action, pick-up hight, intonation all seemed spot on straight from the box, didn't even need to change the strings. It has a great tone and there are multiple adjustments that can be made via the tone/volume knobs to taste including pick-up selection. Very pleased with it and this has now become my work horse bass.

Very, very playable out of the box after a tune-up. The action has been set up well and the fretboard is smooth-edged and well finished. In terms of sound, it's rich and full and the easy 3-pot control is simple to use. The finish on the body is absolutely spotless, as is all the hardware. Lead jack is firm, strap posts are also very secure and tidy. I know many bassists will want to swap the strings out first thing but the ones supplied are pretty good, and the tuning is stable. I think it's a really handsome, no-nonsense and high quality beginners bass. Very glad I chose it!

A good, solid bass. It sounds good.

worth more than the price tag, used these for gigging, nice warm tone, great pickups and typical Ibanez quality.not sure why the photos show a gig bag though,it doesn’t come with one.

The whole family play various instruments (averagely) and have all been interested in bass to add a little gravitas to the jams. Where do you start? There are so many to choose from. I didnt want to break the bank and yet know from experience that if an instrument looks and sounds dodgy, you just don't want to pick it up. I've played Ibanez guitars before and respect the brand so thanks to favourable reviews that this was a good first bass, went for it.I know it shouldn't be about the look but as soon as my daughter opened the box, there was a proper, heart felt wow!! Beautiful clean lines, classic shape and it does NOT look or feel cheap.I've borrowed a 40amp bass amp from a mate and we can't imagine what more we'd be getting if we'd spent another £500. There's now a queue as to who gets to use it next!

Best product I have purchased.

A good bass for the price. Plays well and the intonation is perfect. I have had many bass guitars over the years. This is unlikely to be my choice on a gigging circuit but could make the practice room and indeed capable of being a back up when gigging. Electrics seems to be working fine with no noise as you adjust the tones and volume knobs. Purchased this with a 15w Laney Amp for home use. Both will do the job well.

Bought in the black Friday sale for my daughter's Xmas as an upgrade on her Rock Jam starter bass. Really nice quality and was ready to play straight out of the box, just needed a tune but no adjustments. Already have an Ibanez guitar so was confident about the quality and wasn't disappointed.

ふつーに良かった感じ

Excelente instrumento, relación calidad-precio insuperable. Instrumento superior afinado, bueno para principiantes pero pienso que iría bien también para profesionales

Arrivato perfettamente imballato e in anticipo, corrisponde esattamente alla descrizione. Sicuramente ottimo per principianti, è piaciuto molto a mio figlio

I am very happy with this bass. Its a full scale. Feels very good to play and it sounds great and I haven't yet done any adjustments like trust rod, pickup height or action. I don't seem to need to tune the strings often which is good. Looks cool enough for the price. I feel I can stick to this bass for years. Came with a millon picks for some reason, a rag to clean it without scratching it and allen wrenches too. I'm in Berlin and it was delivered by UPS.

Super basse pour débuter très bien emballé aucune trace de choc
