Ibanez SR1605DW - What Does it Sound Like?

[@deadbeatstudios]

💀 Hey Skeleton Crew! Let us know which song has the most , which song has the most , and drop the time code of your favorite licks! Oh, and say hi to if you see him ;)

[@son0fsocal]

I used to be a HIGH end snob, but this Bass has shown me that great instruments come from all over the world. it doesn't matter anymore.

[@Jedisithlord1210]

Freddie Kruger if he decided to play bass and not be a crazy nightmare killer

[@EverythingisFire]

I can't unsee that 😂

[@BlackNo2]

Everyone overlooks this feature, but this particular 5 string SR comes with 18mm string spacing, which is a big deal if you love SR series but hate their narrow 5 string spacing. Basically BTB/EHB 5 string spacing on an SR

[@robertvilleneuve8272]

Well Jayme one thing for sure, it certainly matches with your right arm. It's a keeper for you I would say... :) Oh and on top of that, it sounds great.

what is the song at 3:32

[@QQyoko]

I really want a Warwick but Ibanez has some pretty killer 5 strings that I'd be willing to play instead. I really like my cheapo Ibanez 4 string.

[@CillBlintonOfficial]

I feel you... Been wanting a Warwick lately but I can't decide between a Corvette, or a Ibanez ehb... The struggle is real

[@brianandreasen2200]

Been playing warwicks almost 10 years and I'm going back to Ibanez after my 2 thumb basses are done why? Cost and availability. Soundwise they are in different camps.

[@Swagadelic_Wizard]

I have a Warwick Thumb it's an absolute nightmare trying to get it set up and especially with the pickups and barrel jack failing on me. I'm getting it fixed up just so I can sell it. I may get this bass after.

[@recordlabeldao7820]

i own 3 ibanez btb basses premium and they are the best and i dont really care where they are made

[@manykzdj792]

People, help me to choose between fender jazz and ibanez sr1600d, can't make my mind, it's killing me

[@bassclefconnoisseur]

Dream Warriors!

[@anotakudetective1546]

If I were to play an sr instead of a btb, this would probably be it

[@EverythingisFire]

BTB's are sweet!

[@CordScott]

I bought this bass and honestly its I don't think it sounds much like this demo.

[@lummond]

Well it does look like a premium offering I just cannot wrap my head around a 1600 US dollar instrument made in Indonesia, where the Squier Affinity series is made

[@joelspaulding5964]

Country of origin is irrelevant in this day. What specs are ordered and what quality is allowed through by the company named on the headstock?

[@lummond]

@@joelspaulding5964 I get it, I just don't agree. I cannot see a scenario where I would take this over a used American Precision or Jazz for oftentimes four hundred bucks cheaper

[@colb999]

@@lummond It's a new bass so comparing it to a used one isn't fair or relevant. Even if they were the same price, I'd take this over just about any MIA Fender. I have a number of MII Ibanez and the quality is excellent, and I feel the value much better.

[@danwatt5789]

@@joelspaulding5964 when you factor in that an indonesian was paid $20 a day to make that Bass, then country of build is absolutely relevant. There is a reason the Spector Euro basses are made in Czechia, for example.

[@reynhart66]

@@lummond Perhaps the scenario where you want a modern sounding / looking bass and don't have the money for an american made Spector, MTD, Sadowsky, Whatever. Without speaking luthier, custom shop, just imagine the price of a spec equivalent bass by Fender MIA. You would probably say that's crazy expensive !
