Description
Ibanez SR490 4-String Electric Bass Guitar
Sleek, sexy and sonic versatility are the reasons Soundgears can be found in every kind of music from gospel to goth to garage rock. Bassists who want the power and versatility of active electronics and fastest neck available have made the Soundgear standard equipment in the most controlled studio environments and the most out-of-control live performances. The SR490 series are built with a mahogany body and a 5-piece wenge/walnut neck and 24 frets. The electronics include a powerful 3-band EQ and versatile IBZ DX pickups.

Ibanez first introduced the Soundgear bass in 1987. That same bass continues to be one of the world's most played basses. Why

Because it's not the same bass. Certainly it's still the sleekest and sexiest. And with all the St models featuring active electronics, it's still the most tonally versatile. It still has the fastest neck. But Ibanez has continued to improve and update the Soundgear line.

When the Soundgear first came out, a highly compressed sound was popular. Now players demand a heavier sound with a more human touch. To accommodate these changes, Ibanez, changed the Soundgear. And now the range of Soundgears is staggering - everything from elite instruments to the new amazingly low priced GSR models.
