You will not be disappointed
I started playing bass 30+ yrs ago back then I started out buying Fender imitations from Ibanez and such. After having peaked buying an Alembic I have come back out of curiosity and on a whim bought this bass.
Well let me tell you, it did not disappoint me. There is nothing this bass cannot do, its light has a fast neck and the electronics remind me of my Bartolini equipped basses. The finish and fret-work are impecable. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the center indents on the controls are hard to feel making it hard while playing to center them, but that is all. I highly recommend this bass to any beginner and certainly to any Pro needing a more than decent back-up. Highly recommended, excellent buy.

Versatile instrument
This is my second Ibanez Bass and is better than the first as it has the extra tone switch. I can find several useful tones depending on the genre. Very easy to play and on this one I have changed strings to flat wound, a whole new thing! slight burr on the neck, but nothing I would worry about.

Bass heaven
As soon as I unpacked the guitar I could see the quality of the bass, I gave it a full check and not a single issue with the finish. I tuned it up and plugged it into my amp, oh boy how fabulous it sounds. With the narrow neck its a beauty to play, yes I'm impressed, faultless, I've had more expensive basses that this beats them hands down.
Its going to be used for gigging and studio work, its got quite a life in front of it!
Rock on!

Excellent price/performance ratio
I use this bass in my home studio, as well as for band practice. Overall, this bass, provided you do a proper setup with a qualified technician, punches way above than what its very friendly price would suggest. It has quality active electronics, nice construction quality (mine was made in Indonesia) and plays like a dream. What might be disappointing is the "out-of-the-box" setup, it was really badly setup but this is easily fixed. Once properly setup, it is a versatile instrument with extremely good price/performance ratio. Highly recommended.

Worthy
This bass is totally worth it’s money. Of course, sound is pretty dependable on an amp you use.
For me it is very comfortable yet not pricey guitar. Beautiful, has decent electronics and pickups.

An excellent bass!
This was our first bass. After trying a couple of others we tried this one and were very impressed with it. The tone is great and the finish in red is excellent.
