The Ibanez SR1600E series was designed with high-end features while maintaining affordability. Part of the SR Premium line and manufactured in the Ibanez Premium factory, the SR Premium 1600E 4-string electric bass is designed with high-end features while maintaining affordability, making it the standard for the serious, professional musician. The SR Premium 1600E boasts a smoothly contoured exotic & beautiful poplar burl top on a large mahogany body for gorgeous looks and powerful, aggressive tone. Its five-piece SR4 wenge/bubinga neck is also bolstered with KTS titanium reinforcement rods inside, and finished with a rosewood fretboard.

The Mono-Rail IV bridge is the ultimate in string isolation for bass. Each saddle is independently and securely locked down to the body for maximum vibration transfer and no interference. One screw controls the height of each saddle for easy adjustment. Ibanez Premium basses are the professional use basses which have been satisfying real professional players on their stages or studios.

Nordstrand Big Single pickups provide the clear sound characteristic of single coil pickups with an aggressive edge. The EQB-IIISC 3-band EQ with mid-frequency select (250Hz or 600Hz) and EQ-bypass switches gives you a world of tonal possibilities, making the SR Premium 1600E as versatile as it is good-looking.

I own three Ibanez sound gear basses SR300, SR405QM and now SR1600E. I must say the 1600 is one great instrument!! top notch finish and craftsmanship. This bass has all the tone one could ever expect, the norstand pick ups are clear as a bell great EQ. The set up was spot on from factory. this bass surpasses all others I have owned to include my Ric 4001 that I've owned for 32 yrs, this will be my new gigging bass.
