Review Summary
2022-04-10T09:02:10
This bass plays nice, sounds nice, and fits nicely (weight, how it hangs). However, there are QC problems you would not expect in a $1700 instrument: the neck finish is a little rough, two of the potentiometers were loose, requiring that I removed the knobs, open up the back to hold them in place, and tighten the nuts. Additionally, there does not appear to be a user manual of any kind. Instead you have to go to the Ibanez web-site and find a generic manual for the bridge and one for the preamp, but not one for this $1700 instrument. There are no suggestions as to what the little chunk of wood is for or where it should be placed (it?s a ?finger ramp?). It?s really as if Ibanez does not care much about the customer.
