Description

Patterned on their famous SR 5-string, this Ibanez GSR offers the same alternative approach to electric bass that all SR basses do. Light in weight, heavy in tone, with the fast, thin neck that’s noticeably easier to play—whether you're a veteran player, or just starting out. Built to hold its own against pro level competitors, the GSR205BWNF features a solid Mahogany body with a sophisticated Walnut Flat finish that give it a luster well beyond its class. A Rosewood fingerboard, accented with medium-size pearl dot inlays round out the visuals A sleek, comfortable, GSR5 Maple neck—widely recognized as the industry standard for playability—and rock solid Ibanez B15 bridge, rev up the specs to accommodate whatever you’re setting out to play. Factor in Ibanez DXH-5 pickups for clarity and fullness, and the PHAT-II EQ for ultra wide tonal range and you’ll see why the GSR205 ranks as one of the most-played 5-string basses of all time.

    • Beautiful instrument!
Color: Charcoal Brown Burst
This is a fantastic instrument for the price point. It arrived well—packed and in need of very little adjustment. Although I will be changing the strings, the instrument was very playable, low action, good intonation. And to top it all off, it’s just beautiful. Ibanez does it again!

    • Nice for the price .
Color: Walnut Flat
Nice bass for the money like the thin neck . Sounds good but the strings are rough on the fingers . Get some flats to go with it and your rocking .

Received my bass and was immediately impressed with how beautiful the finish and color of the wood is. Was initially very disappointed as it would not tune at all! I'm basically an advanced beginner, but can easily tune my own guitars. Came with flat wounds and I tried three different tuners. Would still not tune. Took it to a guitar store and the luthier told me the strings were terrible and the guitar had Not been set up at all. Even in a rudimentary way. Like they forgot?. Even the truss rod was set too flat. $60 additionally invested with new stings and a set up by an expert, it now plays very nicely. If you don't know how to adjust for intonation you'll have to have an expert do it. Love the Bass, but disappointed I had to drop money on better strings and a major set of adjustment. Plus a drive across town. Just be mindful that you may have to do this if you buy one. I expected a little better from Ibenez.. ... show more

This is a nice bass it just needs to be set up. The action on the low string was like a half inch high but get it set up and it's fine.

    • Nice tone, great value
Color: Natural Grey Burst
First bass I’ve ever owned for myself, love it! The low B string sounds great, couldn’t do without it. I play a lotta jazz; with some tone adjustments this bass is perfect, although it’s great for playing metal as well. It’s solid, but lightweight enough where it won’t completely kill my back during gigs. Smooth handling on the back of the neck, and a clean fretboard. The frets are a tad sharp on the ends, but it hasn’t proven to be an issue during playing. They can easily be sanded down. I recommend this product to any beginner and intermediate bassists. ... show more

Mi Ibanez de 5 Cuerdas: ¡Una Obra de Arte que Suena a Gloria! Miren, de este bajo... uff, ¿qué más puedo decir? Desde el momento en que lo tuve en mis manos, supe que era algo especial. El sonido es nítido, perfecto y limpio. Cada nota, cada vibración, sale con una claridad que te deja boquiabierto. Y los bajos... ¡son sabrosos! De verdad, te envuelven, te hacen sentir la música en el pecho. Lo más impresionante es que, por su precio, este bajo entrega mucho más de lo que pagas. Es increíblemente profesional, con unos ecualizadores que te permiten moldear el sonido a tu antojo. No es un juguete, es una herramienta seria para cualquier músico. Y el look... ¡waow! Te ves espectacular con él, bien pro, como alguien que realmente sabe lo que hace. Es hermoso, súper hermoso. Cuando lo sacas, la gente lo nota. Tiene esa presencia que te hace sentir que estás tocando un instrumento de primera línea. No te arrepentirás de comprarlo, te lo aseguro. Ahora, un punto MUY importante que tienen que saber, y aquí es donde se ve lo profesional que es Ibanez: al segundo de recibirlo, viene desajustado su lomo. Sí, el mástil necesita un ajuste para la tensión de las cuerdas. Esto no es un defecto, ¡es una señal de calidad! Un producto que viene ajustado de fábrica puede sufrir grietas o dañarse durante el transporte por los cambios de temperatura y humedad. Por eso, Ibanez lo envía así, para que llegue perfecto y lo ajustes a tu gusto. Así que, mi consejo de bajista: si no sabes cómo ajustar el mástil (el neck relief), llévalo a una tienda o taller especializado. No te fíes de cualquier tutorial de YouTube que jura que quedará perfecto, porque puedes astillar el mango y arrepentirte de por vida. Para mi suerte, yo soy bajista y sé algunas cosas, así que ajusté el mío y quedó perfecto. En resumen, si buscas un bajo de 5 cuerdas que te dé un sonido impecable, unos bajos que te hagan vibrar, un look que te haga sentir como una estrella y una calidad profesional que supera su precio, este Ibanez es la elección. Solo recuerda el detalle del ajuste, y tendrás una joya en tus manos. ... show more
