Key Features Of The Ibanez GSR Bass Guitar Range

The guitars have a sleek, double-cutaway "Soundgear" body shape, typically made from woods like poplar, agathis, okoume, or mahogany, designed for comfort and balance. Most of the range features a one-piece maple neck with a thin profile (GSR4 shape) and a narrower nut than traditional bass guitars, making them easy to play, especially for those with smaller hands.

Most Ibanez GSR models come with a versatile P/J pickup configuration, which includes a split-coil "P"-style pickup in the neck position for warm, full tones, and a single-coil "J"-style pickup at the bridge for a tighter, snappier sound.

Looking for a punchier sound? The popular GSR200, GSR205, and GSR206 models include an active Phat II EQ bass boost circuit, which provides extra low-end power and a "meatier" tone. The more basic GSR180 model uses passive electronics.
