Description

Patterned on their famous SR, the Ibanez GSR offers the same alternative approach to electric bass that all SR basses do. Light in weight, heavy in tone, with a fast, thin neck that you will find just a bit more comfortable than other brands-whether you're a veteran bassist, a 6-string guitarist or just starting out. Built to hold its own against pro level competitors, the GSR205SM features a solid Poplar body, and exotically Salted Maple top. A Jacobi fingerboard, accented with medium-size white 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 set out to play. Factor in Ibanez Dynamic H pickups for clarity and fullness well beyond their price point, and the PHAT- II EQ for ultra wide tonal range and you’ll see why the GSR205 ranks as one of the most-played basses of all time.

Color: Natural Grey Burst
This guitar is some serious bang for the buck! It came a little dried out and with a high action so I would recommend a professional setup but this guitar far exceeded my expectations in both quality and tone-crafting.

    • 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

The one that was originally sent to me was wrong. Although all of the labeling and documentation showed that it was the GSR205SMGNT (natural grey), it was clearly the GSR205SMCNB (brown). Amazon was quick to address the issue and put in for a replacement. Unfortunately, it ended up on backorder and I didn't receive it for another 2 months (it's a popular model). Oh, boy...I gotta say, the wait was worth it! Not only was it right this time, but instead of just the basic spalted maple top, it is also partially quilted maple. It looks absolutely beautiful. The attached photos really don't do it justice. Anywho, on to the bass itself. As I have stated in some of my other reviews, Ibanez gets it right. They really know how to make a top quality budget instrument. Setup was near perfect, and after I threw a new set of strings on, she was thumpin' like a boss. It was definitely worth the wait. Highly recommend. ... show more
