Review: great bass - great bass. well it has it's limitations. I'm a guitar player so for what it's worth. well made. intonation is good. the action, distance the strings are from the frets, is good. good sound. I would recommend for the beginner and intermediate. I ended up putting flat wound strings on mine and Seymour duncan pick ups in it just for an upgrade. I play in a band and wanted a beefier sound. but overall it's great. I would highly recommend it. good value for the money.
Review: Excellent value, but be prepared to setup & tune! - This came with a tag indicating that it had been inspected and setup at the factory. But, shipping and handling must have had an effect on it (and/or they weren't careful at the factory) since it had multiple setup issues: - Neck curvature was incorrect (not concave enough) - E string bridge position was too low (and other strings were slightly uneven) The manual shows you how to fix the neck curvature and the tool is included in the box. The manual didn't say how to adjust the bridge, but it was pretty easy once I found some documentation online: insert a small allen wrench into the holes on both sides of where the string enters the bridge area. Once I fixed those two issues and did basic tuning (strings were about a minor third too loose for EADG tuning), it played great! I like that it's a bit lighter than my other bass (Squier vintage PJ) and has a flatter, slightly slimmer neck. I also like that the neck back is a smooth satin finish (vs. a sticky high-gloss finish on my Squier). Conclusion: I strongly recommend that you have an allen wrench set (w/ options around 2mm for the bridge) and a feeler gauge in order to perform setup when you get your instrument. The manual tells you proper string heights. Electronics and knobs seem fine. There is one knob that mostly stops, but you can push it a bit further. But, generally, the knobs respond as described according to the diagram at ibanez.com and changes are continuous as you'd expect. While getting the bass set up, I noticed some buzz coming out of my amp (Rumble 40). I was worried about electronics quality, but tracked the problem down to overhead lighting in the room that was on a dimmer circuit. Once I turned off those lights, the buzz went away and I got a very clean sound. I had played this model before and noticed that it was easier to play than my Squier. That's still the case. Only two things left to decide are (1) whether to put on flatwounds, and (2) what to do with my Squier :)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what about bangladeshi price?**
A: What about it?

**Q: what is the length of this bass?**
A: 44.5" overall, 22 frets. On an unrelated note, beware that this bass uses active pickups, which means they are powered by a 9v battery. It can be kind of a drag if it dies and you don't have a spare lying around. Otherwise, great bass for the price.

**Q: Do you have to have a 9-volt battery for it to work? Or will it play in passive mode without the battery?**
A: It plays in passive mode, but the 9- volt definitely makes a big different in sound. Adjustments can be made with the phat bass knob if you want less or no active bass.

**Q: needs batteries??**
A: It is an active bass and does require a battery.-Beau Monde Guitars

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ awesome bass at a great price
*by D***Y on December 20, 2024*

this has to be one of the best buys ive made! plays awesome after a minimal amount of bridge set up(has a slight fret buzz ). super light action, the stock pick ups are just fine and has to be the LIGHTEST bass ive ever played...my old stage go to was an Aria Pro beast, thing probably weight clove to 30 lbs but had a super fat sound that was perfect for live, never wanted to use my 57 fender p bass for live shows!! i recently got back into playing and this bass paired with the Fender Rumble amp is absolutely perfect!!
