Ibanez SR300DX Soundgear Electric Bass
Ibanez first introduced the Soundgear bass in 1987. That same bass continues to be one of the world's most played basses. Why Because it is not the same bass. Certainly it's still the sleekest and sexiest. And with all SR models featuring active electronics, it's still the most tonally versatile. It still has the fastest neck. But they've continued to improve and update the Soundgear line.
Feature:
It's a no-frills bass, but the output sound is amazing. It has dual pickups, balancer, tone control, and volume control, that's it. That's all I need.
Quality:
This is a Japanese-made bass. Again, it is around 15 years of age. It looks and works like new.
Value:
Original MSRP is around 550 CAD. That's nothing for a product of this quality!
Desirability:
It is red color. I think that red is the best color for a bass. This is a classic Ibanez Soundgear, not the new childish Soundgear they make now. Looks and feels sweet!
Sound:
I was very much broke, but wanted to buy a bass. So I ended up buying a second-hand older model Ibanez SR600. And guess what? Under no circumstances will I ever change it to anything! It is amazing! Great sound, classic Soundgear appearance (it was manufactured between 1989 and 1994). New Soundgears tend to have great sound as well, but this particular one simply kicks ass!
Ease of Use:
Handles amazingly! Thin neck, well balanced bass. Tried a Fender Jazz Bass - it's just terrible compared to this one.
Support:
Hard to find information on this model on the official site, but who cares? As long as the product itself is great.
Overall:
I'll play this baby 'til my heart stands still.
