The SR500E 1P-02 features several high-end attributes that make it an appealing option for both beginner and intermediate players, as well as those who prefer a more modern aesthetic and sound.

Here are some of its key features:

1. Body Construction

  • Body Wood: The SR500E features a Mahogany body which gives the bass a unique, visually striking appearance with a naturally warm, rich sound profile.

  • Shape: The body has a thin, contoured shape that’s very comfortable to play, especially for those who play for extended periods.

2. Neck & Fingerboard

  • Neck Wood: The neck is made of 5-piece maple and walnut, which enhances stability and strength.

  • Neck Shape: The neck is a SR4-shaped neck, which is slimmer compared to traditional bass necks. This allows for faster playing, which is great for slap bass and other techniques that require quick hand movement.

  • Fingerboard: The fingerboard is made of Jatoba, which has a bright, tight grain and offers smooth playability. The fretboard also features 24 medium frets, offering plenty of room for soloing and fingerstyle play.

3. Pickups and Electronics

  • Pickups: It comes with a pair of Bartolini pickups (humbuckers), designed to provide clarity and punchy, dynamic sound. These pickups are highly versatile and can deliver everything from smooth jazz tones to aggressive rock growls.

  • Electronics: The bass is equipped with an Ibanez custom 3-band EQ. This setup gives players a wide tonal range with precise control over the bass, mids, and treble frequencies. The EQ also features a mid-frequency switch, allowing you to dial in specific tones based on your playing style.

4. Bridge and Hardware

  • Bridge: The SR500E has an Accu-cast B500 bridge, which is designed to improve sustain and tuning stability.

  • Tuners: It features Die-cast tuners, known for their smooth, reliable tuning adjustments.

5. Aesthetic Features

  • Finish: The bass is available in a striking Natural Flat finish.

6. Playability

  • Lightweight: The SR series is known for its lightweight construction, and the SR500E is no exception. The bass is easy to hold and comfortable for long practice sessions or performances.

  • Fast Neck: The slim neck profile is designed to facilitate fast play, which makes it a popular choice for bassists who like to execute quick runs or complicated finger techniques.

7. Versatility

  • With its advanced electronics and flexible tonal palette, the SR500E is highly versatile and can be used in a variety of genres, including rock, metal, jazz, funk, and more.
