Ergonomic body design
The EHB’s headless construction and specially designed body enable the player to maintain a similar playing position whether seated or standing.
Slanted body back
The top half of the back of the body is slanted which allows the bass to rest slightly closer to the player’s body for better control and a more ergonomic feel.
Pale Moon Ebony top / Ash body
The Pale Moon Ebony top displays a rich, beautiful wood grain, and the Ash body delivers a pleasant brightness with rich sustain.
Fishman® Fluence™ pickups
These Fishman® Fluence™ pickups are the first for bass to feature stainless covers. These unique pickups deliver Fluence Multi-Voice performance, impressive dynamic range, and outstanding articulation with no extraneous noise.
Fishman® 3-band EQ w/Single Coil Mode switch (push/pull), 3-way Voice Select switch
This new EQ was developed by Fishman® for Ibanez and is built around a newly added mid control. The center frequency for the mid control is 630Hz.
The Single Coil Mode switch adds even more tonal flexibility to pickups.
The Voice Selector switch offers players a wide palette of sounds to cover all playing styles.
Voice 1 (Passive): Classic, fat and round
Voice 2 (Active): Full frequency, full dynamics
Voice 2 (Active with mid contour): Funk, Hi-Fi scooped
Single Coil Mode: Same voices as above but with a narrower magnetic field
Ibanez custom headpieces
Rugged yet light-weight Ibanez custom headpieces enable strings to be easily set and released by a hex wrench from the back side.
Comfortably rounded body edge, Chambered body
Its contoured, ergonomic design and chambered body make for a lightweight, well-balanced, and comfortable instrument that’s excellent for long sets or practice session.
9pc Panga Panga/Walnut neck w/Graphite reinforcement rods
The 9-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck provides superior note attack, tight lows and increased sustain with the Panga Panga fretboard.
Luminescent side dots
The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.
MR5HS mono rail bridge w/string spacing adjustable saddles
The MR5HS bridge is designed especially for the EHB basses and features wide intonation range. Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer, and the saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm, answering every bassist’s individual string spacing demands, no matter what playing style. PTFE washers are used on each tuner for a smooth tuning action.
Schaller S-Locks strap pins and Neutrik locking jack
Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack hold the strap and cable securely.
Detachable Finger ramp
A detachable Finger ramp is included for comfortable finger picking.
Panga Panga fretboard
