If you're not afraid of innovation, then the Ibanez Bass Workshop EHB1506MS six-string headless bass is nothing short of a stone-cold treat. Expect maximum versatility, outstanding sound and unrivalled playability, all courtesy of a chambered body built from hand-selected, lightweight African mahogany, ergonomic body shaping, and the natural feel of an EHB4 neck. This bass simply boasts extreme comfort and, since this is a multi-scale model, things just keep getting better. The more-accurate multi-scale length doesn't just guarantee pure intonation along the entire fretboard but ensures optimal balance across all six strings. All polished off with a nine-piece panga panga and walnut neck and topped with a slice of figured poplar burl, you're also getting a uniquely rich foundation sound. The Ibanez Bass Workshop EHB1506MS: Modern Foundation, Natural Power The organic tone of the build is translated by a pair of Nordstrand Big-Split Custom pickups that have been teamed up with super-flexible active tone controls to deliver powerful yet natural amplified sound. Hit the EQ bypass switch and gain passive tone control in the mere blink of an eye. This is a headless bass, so everything is tuned and intonated via the high-precision MR5HS bridge and, since the headstock and machine heads have simply been removed, the weight and balance of this Bass Workshop model is beautifully optimised. To finish, Ibanez include a matching gig bag.
