Multi-Scale for Ideal Scale Length Across the Strings

The Ibanez SRFF805 5-string multi-scale electric bass guitar joins the lineage of Soundgear basses that are well known for innovative design, effortless playability, and an extremely wide range of tones. The multi-scale design offers an ideal mix of comfort, tension, and tone quality. With the SRFF805's mix of custom Ibanez electronics and Bartolini pickups, you get precise control over your sound. The SRFF805 aims to make your playing experience as enjoyable and effortless as possible.

  • Better comfort, tension, and tone
  • Open sound with more control
  • Mono-rail V bridge for ultimate string isolation
Better comfort, tension, and tone

Multi-scale frets are an exciting trend in high-end bass guitar design. They yield a longer scale on the bass side of the instrument and a shorter scale on the treble side, offering you better intonation and more consistent tension and attack from string to string. While getting used to them may seem intimidating, Sweetwater bassists have found it's a very natural transition.

Open sound with more control

Bartolini is well established around bass players for delivering clear, warm performance via a dual-coil style configuration that maximizes articulation for balanced string-to-string pickup response. The mix of Ibanez's custom preamp and the dual Bartolini BH1 pickups gives you a detailed sound that can be tweaked for any tonal application with surgical precision. Plus, you can switch the Ibanez preamp between active and passive modes for even more sonic options.

Mono-rail V bridge for ultimate string isolation

The Mono-rail V bridge installed on the SRFF805 minimizes between-string crosstalk. When you play a string, sympathetic vibrations can set the other strings into motion. But by separating the bridge into five independent units, the Mono-rail V maximizes vibration transfer without interference from the other strings.

Ibanez SRFF805 5-string Multi-Scale Bass Features at a Glance:
  • 5-string bass with appointments aimed at the ultimate playing experience
  • 24 multi-scale medium frets offer better string tension and intonation
  • 5-piece jatoba/bubinga neck is extremely stable
  • 2 Bartolini BH1 pickups balance clarity and warmth wonderfully
