Ibanez Affirma Premium AFR5 Walnut Electric Bass, 5-String, (with Case)

Ibanez proudly revives the 5-String Affirma Premium AFR5 Walnut Electric Bass with modern upgrades. The Walnut body provides a tight response and warm sound with a firm low end. The neck is 3 pc Maple with 2 Graphite rods inside for added stability, and jointed to half of the body. It is called “half neck-through” construction which helps to reduce sacrificing the body’s vibration and achieves enough sustain to its tone. The Ebony fretboard on the neck provides a tight response. The neck end adjustment allows you to adjust the neck easily without loosening the strings.

The AeroSilk MR5 Bridge has unique saddles which were designed to work in concert with the piezo pickups and enhance the acoustic "stand-up" quality of the sound. Also, the bridge allows for a wide intonation adjustment range, and each isolated bridge is securely locked down to the body for maximum vibration transfer without interference. Bartolini X55JX pickup split coil design deliver a deep and punchy tone. With its combination of the piezo and magnetic pickup, the 2 band EQ assists bassist in finding their perfect tone. Other features include special thumb rest on the body. A hard-shell case is included.
