Ibanez Standard SR500A TGF - transparent gray flat

The Ibanez Standard SR500A TGF electric bass is a modern instrument that combines playing comfort with sonic versatility, designed to meet the demands of contemporary musicians.

Overview

For decades, Ibanez has distinguished itself with its solid-body electric basses, combining ergonomic design with a wide range of tonal options. The Ibanez Standard SR500A TGF is an excellent example of this expertise, offering high-end technical features for discerning bassists.

An Okoume Body for a Warm, Balanced Sound

The body of the SR500A TGF is crafted from Okoume, a wood that serves as a lightweight yet high-performance alternative to mahogany, delivering rich resonance and a well-balanced tone—ideal for a wide range of musical styles.

A meticulously crafted neck for optimal comfort

This bass features a bolt-on neck made of walnut and torrefied maple, which has undergone a heat treatment that improves its stability, protects it from humidity, and makes it more resistant to temperature fluctuations. This results in smooth and comfortable playability.

Bartolini pickups for a robust and defined tone

Equipped with Bartolini BH2 pickups, the SR500A TGF delivers a powerful and clear tone. These pickups provide a well-balanced frequency response, enhancing the low end without sacrificing the mids and highs.

A custom Ibanez circuit for tonal flexibility

Ibanez’s custom circuit allows for both passive and active operation, featuring a three-band EQ. This gives musicians the ability to shape their tone to their preferences, whether playing funk, rock, or other styles.
