"Proffesional quality for alomost nay budget."
Feature:
The grover tuners are awesome! You never have to worry about losing your tuning set up, except for when you put fresh strings on it but life isn't perfect right? The equalizer has a wide range of sounds and the bartolini pick ups are the definatley my pick of any pick ups now.
Quality:
The Ibanez is definatly a work of art. Everyone that has seen me with this has given me nothing but compliments. I really can't think of anything bad about this bass besides the missing growl that I personaly enjoy the most.
Value:
You are not going to find a better bass for this price... EVER!
Desirability:
Its balance, shape and color are all beautiful. It stands out as its own work of art.
Sound:
The sound on this bass is smooth and equal. Its lows will punch you in the stomach and its highs lead the way into harmonic clarity. The only thing I feel its missing personaly is a powerful growl like that of a Warwick. Yet with the 3-band equalizer directly on the bass you can find any sound that fits your style.
Ease of Use:
If you are used to playing bass and don't mind jammin on wide... very wide neck then this bass is very comfortable to play. The neck is very flat which makes it easy to navigate threw the frets. I play progessive metal and I hit alot of notes one after another and this bass does not slow me down. Slapping isn't as easy but comfortable nont the less.
Overall:
The SR506 is overall a great bass. I am very satisfied with my purchase and feel I will buy more SR series basses. That will be after another Warwick though. Go to any local shop and try one of these sound gears out and see for your self. You will be amazed in the quality and playability of this instrument.

"This bass will cause a ruckus in the house! I love it!"
Feature:
I have no complaint about the lack of accessories. It doesn't matter to me. The bass is the main ingredient and "accessories" don't make it play any better.
Quality:
Quality?? Fabulous. Everything is professional down to the little plastic "map" around the control knobs. I am not worried about this thing "breaking". My husband is a gifted guitar tech, and he can spot sure quality at a glance...My Ibanez 6 string is TOTAL quality, especially for the price. I am more concerned about my tempermental Warwick giving me fits, and that thing was more than twice the price of this one!
Value:
Incredible value for the $$.
Desirability:
Well I wouldn't exactly describe a bass with a neck the size of a surfboard "sexy", but if you must use that term, then she is just that! It looks alot like my Warwick, which is kind of nice, but I am counting on her even more than the Warwick because I feel she is honestly made BETTER!
Sound:
The sound of this bass is likened to rolling thunder with a clarity from the heavens! I was so surprised when I first picked it up in the store. It was sort of an "I'll show you" thing - being that I am a small woman (5 ft tall) with small hands....but a bassist to the bone, and once I got hold of this baby (I named her 'Mudskipper") we were an uproarious team! I have it paired up with a Mesa/Boogie Big Block 750 with a 4x10 cab. She sounds outrageous with that, yet plugged into my little Peavey 112 practice amp, she is just as gutsy and mean! How could she sound any better? I doubt she could. The Bartolini's tell the tale.
Ease of Use:
Again, I couldn't believe this thing. Little me, all of five feet with goofy little hands, and I could play her like nobody's business! It took a few hours to get back up to speed, as I am used to 4-strings and this is my first (and probably last ever) six string. Just picture (and it is kinda funny) this little lady playing this giant's neck of a bass. This bass is simple and sweet to handle!
Support:
Not ever needed support with any of our Ibanez products. Just a great deal for the money spent.
Overall:
I expect to own and use this product as long as I live, breath and thump! I own twelve (12) basses, and I am certain that she will always be at the top of my collection. The bass has enhanced my playing by leaps and bounds because of the 6 strings.
