General

Thanks to premium hardware and the ultimate playability offered by a slim neck profile, the Ibanez SR range has been home to some of the most satisfyingly playable basses released to date. Needless to say, this SR2600 in Cerulean Blue Burst is no exception and features a poplar burl top supported by an African mahogany body that comes decked out with gold-plated hardware. Add on a stunning panga-panga fretboard and you’ve got a real eye-catcher. To level up the playability, the 24 stainless steel medium frets have even received the Prestige Fret Edge treatment for a smooth, polished feel, while the relatively flat fretboard has been granted a 12-inch radius for eased pitch-bends.

Active Tone Controls, Bypass and Nordstrand Pickups

The SR2600 isn't just easy on the eyes and fret hand but boasts the sonic flexibility of active tone controls that can be used in passive mode whenever needed. By combining the push button and the balancer control of the EQ section, bass cuts and boosts can effortlessly dialled in while the 3-way mid frequency switch allows you to boost or cut the 250 Hz, 450 Hz or 700 Hz frequencies. And then there's the pickups, finishing touches and other extras: Nordstrand Big Single soapbar pickups that pack especially articulated, spiced-up mix-slicing sound; ever-practical luminlay side dots; and an included gig bag for dependable on-the-road protection.

Wrote the following about Ibanez SR2600-CBB Premium Cerulean Blue Burst Electric Bass Guitar

Snel geleverd, uitstekende bas. Smalle, platte hals in mat hout, die merkbaar sneller speelt dan die van veel andere basgitaren. Ook het geluid staat mij aan. Heldere tonen, diepe bassen, niet te muddy, veel instelmogelijkheden. In deze 4 string-versie ook uitstekend voor slappen. Eén van mijn andere basgitaren is een 5 string SR. Daar vind ik de krappe 16,5 mm string spacing een beetje een nadeel. De SR2600 heeft gewoon 19 mm string spacing, net zoals de meeste 4 strings. Hij is ook vrij licht en voelt compact aan. Kan van belang zijn als je hem twee uur rond je nek hebt hangen. Het enige dat ik vreemd vind, is dat Ibanez op al zijn Premium en Prestige basgitaren plastic draaiknoppen monteert, daar waar de meer betaalbare versies stevige metalen knoppen hebben. Volgens wat ik elders las, zou dat zijn om gewicht te besparen, maar dan hadden ze imo net zo goed voor aluminium knoppen kunnen opteren. De plastic knoppen functioneren overigens perfect, maar ze ogen alleen een beetje goedkoop. Voorlopig heb ik deze bas alleen gebruikt in standaard tuning, want voor lagere tonen, gebruik ik één van mijn 5 strings.
