Developed by Ibanez, the exposed poles of the PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups produce a stronger signal and increase response at higher frequencies without sacrificing bass. The result is a tone rich in harmonic details and dynamic expression.

The 3-band EQ works in conjunction with a coil switch for maximum control over a wide range of professional bass tones. The Tap mode (single coil) creates a dynamic, punchy sound with superior articulation. The Series mode (humbucking) offers a warm, full tone, and the Power Tap mode provides the best of both worlds: combining the clarity of the single coil with the deep lows of the humbucker. The bridge Accu-cast B500

The Accu-cast B500 bridge features adjustable saddles for variable string spacing of +/- 1.5 mm, accommodating the specific string spacing preferences of each bassist.

About Ibanez

Ibanez is a guitar and bass manufacturer based in Japan. Its name comes from the Spanish luthier Salvador Ibañez, whose excellent guitars were distributed in Japan by the Hoshino Gakki company. The 1929 recession affected the company, which closed in 1933. The Japanese market was left without supply, so the importer decided in 1935 to start manufacturing Spanish guitars on its own and distributed them under the name "Ibanez Salvador." Later, the name was changed to "Ibanez".
