Ibanez SRF705 Bass Guitar Review - Bedroom Producers Blog

bedroomproducersblog.com

The Ibanez SRF705 is a sublime entry point for fretless bass enthusiasts, boasting a smooth feel and impressive tonal versatility. The AeroSilk piezo pickup delivers an acoustic-esque sound, though it can introduce unwanted string noise. Its extensive tone controls and the iconic "Mwah" sound make it a versatile choice across genres. While the piezo's attack may not suit everyone, the overall sound quality, particularly the resonant low B string, stands out. A solid choice for those seeking a fretless bass with character, despite minor caveats.

Ibanez's SRF705 5-string fretless bass impresses with its tonal versatility and playability, offering a rich sound palette thanks to its Bartolini MK-1 and AeroSilk Piezo pickups. The bass stands out with its sleek design and comfortable neck, making it accessible even for fretless novices. However, the lack of a quick pickup selection could be a minor setback for live performers. At $999, it's a solid choice for those seeking to add a distinct voice to their bass collection. Overall, it's a versatile and well-constructed instrument that deserves attention.
