+Jean V fuck man, your comment should be on top
Thank you

You have apparently taken a lot of heat in these comments for talking too much and taking too long to do the demo, but your first 6 minutes of talking are what convinced me to get this bass. So thanks for talking through it for the sake of us who need to hear what other players feel and think about the guitar as well as hearing it. I was on the fence between a few different ones, but your comprehensive review convinced me to get the SR505. Thanks!
Thanks! Your review showed the versatility of the bass better than the official video of the bass did!
Thanks for all the details before playing, helps a lot.
Just found this bass at guitar center for 350 and put a layaway on it. Moving from a fender squire pbass to this one. This one felt so perfect . Fit so good on my lap. Thanks for the review. Glad I didn't waste my time.
Great review! I bought an SR505E after watching this, as I did not have a 5 string bass, and I have an Ibanez srh500f 4 string as well. I've been playing professionally live and in studios for 53 years, I'm a vintage fender bass snob, and an upright player. IMO Ibanez build the finest basses on the market today and that includes custom basses that cost $1000's more. I reach for my Ibanez basses most of the time now. They are extremely well engineered.
Maybe someone has pointed this out already, but the current version does have a battery lid that snaps out.
i got this bass on 6 strings and I LOVE IT
I got the 2013 lefty model. My god......its beautiful!!!
I have one from 96. I love it and I am not even primarily a bassist.
I have a 2011 SR505 - I play in a worship setting weekly. LOVE this bass. It has the easy open battery cover and its passive/active - Super nice. I would love a music man or other bass, but then I go play one and I instantly miss my ibanez neck... its slim and so fast. I have yet to find anything else like it. I bought mine new from GC on sale for $400ish. Currently looking for a 5 string fretless - I've played a bunch, but its looking like I will stick with Ibanez. Thanks for the review.
I have this bass, love it.
Rock? Jazz? Are you shitting me? This bass has the best metal sound ive ever heard \m/
Thank you, Kennis! I enjoyed the "talk" part of the video and I think it was especially useful! I am looking into basses, as I would like make a purchase and begin to study bass. I was not sure whether or not this bass was capable of other musical genres, like jazz & slapping, because I've mainly found videos of people using it for rock and metal. It is definitely a very versatile bass! And, by the way, I am tall and really skinny guy. So, the weight of the instrument is also an issue. Thank you again! :)
Ibanez basses are excellent for any style. I don't personally own ome but I have played many and they are sturdy and are easy to play so I'd say try out a few brands first before settling cheers :).
Jacob Cousins
Thank you, I will do that! :)
great review, and the sr500 and up come with bartolini mk1 pickups
just ordered this bass!!
Ibanez basses are pretty cool instruments, I like them
Man, that neck pickup sounds sweet.
The SR Series, is THE BEST! I have a SR300, the next... is the SR505 :D Ty for this Review. Greetings from Argentina :3
does the 2013 model have different specs compared to the model that you have ?
Very good video
nice! I just got one today 8/29/15 at Guitar Center for $699.99 on sale. the original price on it was $933.64 or so, but anyways I fell in love with it so I bought it. no regrets so far.
+Kennis Russell yeah it's awesome. the one I have is a SR505ZR a day has a small toggle switch on it that changes the sound a bit.
+jose luis ruiz Jeeez bro that's overpriced. You could have bought it used for about 300 bucks... don't get me wrong this bass is still amazing for the money
Florian Gabriel i couldnt find a used one, but i have a gear card and in order to get it with no interest financing i had to buy it new. I still think its a good price. Vs my old 15 year old bass, this one sounds very nice. :)
I too got my strap screw to come away from the body, but got it easily fixed with wood glue and matchsticks :P And true, the body is very delicate. Doesn´t bother me, it´s a very good bass, especially considering the price.
Whats the diffrence between 500 and 505?
Can you review the chapman ml-b
Pickups are passive, but the EQ is active.
If you put elixir strings on this it sounds godlike!
are those bartolene pick ups
I never seen a SR505 with that color. It looks similar to TKF but copula between body and neck is more blacker that that. And it's definitely not the BM or TFF. Can you tell me the color of your SR505??
Since this review was uploaded 3 years ago, Frankly I didn't expect any reply. Thank you for your quick reply.
Hi, Kennis! I'm looking for my first bass guitar and I love this one. Could I play with it Metal musics? Thank you very much. :)
One of the best for metal when it comes to basses
***** definitely I'll do it when I buy my own, ok?
Havr you bought it? I'm gonna buu it next week, it's one of the best bass for metal, I already played it, it's stringa spacing (16.5mm) and fast neck (really thin) make this bass tremendously good.
Hahahaha a "metal" bass player
Michele Albero is this the replica version of fieldy korn bass k5?
This bass has a great sound, but the wood is very delicate, even when using the slap technique can damage the wood.
You play bass like a guitar player ! 😂. Overall a good informational video.
Tenho o SR405 Korea
Whats the difference between the sr505 and the sr305?
pickups and woods.
Church FTW !!!
Is this diffrent than the 500
It's the 5 string version
Use your pinky more but great video!!
I should use pinky more..maybe drills
Show
Does it djent?
quiet
this is an old version of the sr505
***** Yeah its basically the same bass. They did move the pickups closer to the neck a bit and they added a mid frequency switch that changes the frequency the mid control boosts or cuts. They also changed the truss rod cover so its easier to get at and they did change the battery cover. Other than that its mostly cosmetic changes like the neck joint and the color.
Bro I didn't know Blake Shelton played bass
🤣
$750 in 2023 👀🤘🏼
over 6 and a half minutes before we actually heard the sound of the bass....
*****
just sayin' ..... people want to hear what the bass sounds like
Must be a record.
This guy has no idea what he is talking about THIS BASS DOES NOT HAVE ACTIVE PICKUPS, it has an active EQ, not active pickups, and he does not mention the Bartolini pickups AT ALL, that make the bass sound amazing, with the ACTIVE EQ. THIS GUY SHOULD NOT REVIEW BASSES,
+Kennis Russell There are many basses that are Active Pick Ups with Active Preamps. There's a HUGE difference between active pickups and passive pickups. Since this is a bass with Passive Pups and an active Eq it CAN use an active/passive switch which makes it way more versatile. If it had active Pups it could never be played without a battery but with a switch this could be played without a battery because of the passive Pups.
I have an SR505 and it's a GREAT bass! It's super tight and I've been a five string player for years because the fifth string really brings a new dynamic.
you buy this guitar for $ 300
Another guitar player playing a bass :/
Why?
А нормального басиста нет???
To much talking
Needs more cowbell
the music in the background is annoying
Why even do this? Come on.
Bad bass player !
Probably a guitarist.
