Ergonomic body design

The EHB’s headless construction and specially designed body enable the player to maintain a similar playing position whether seated or standing.

Slanted body back

The top half of the back of the body is slanted which allows the bass to rest slightly closer to the player’s body for better control and a more ergonomic feel.

Ibanez custom headpieces

Rugged yet light-weight Ibanez custom headpieces enable strings to be easily set and released by a hex wrench from the back side.

Comfortably rounded body edge, Chambered body

Its contoured, ergonomic design and chambered body make for a lightweight, well-balanced, and comfortable instrument that’s excellent for long sets or practice session.

Scooped cut on the body back

There is extra carving on the back of the body behind the lower horn for easier upper fret access.

9pc Panga Panga/Walnut neck w/Graphite reinforcement rods

The 9-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck provides superior note attack, tight lows and increased sustain with the Panga Panga fretboard.

Luminescent side dots

The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.

Ash top / Okoume body

The Ash top imbues this bass with an exotic appearance and the Okoume body delivers a rich mid-low end.

Bartolini® BH2 pickups

The Bartolini® BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range, and smooth response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response.

Vari-Mid 3-Band EQ w/EQ bypass switch

The Vari-mid 3-band EQ features a variable mid-frequency control which allows you to dial in an incredibly wide range of sounds. There is also an EQ bypass switch for passive operation with the treble control acting as a passive tone control when the EQ is bypassed.

MR5HS mono rail bridge w/string spacing adjustable saddles

The MR5HS bridge is designed especially for the EHB basses and features wide intonation range. Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer, and the saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm, answering every bassist’s individual string spacing demands, no matter what playing style. Teflon washers are used on each tuner for a smooth tuning action.

Schaller S-Locks strap pins and Neutrik locking jack

Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack hold the strap and cable securely.

Detachable Finger ramp

A detachable Finger ramp is included for comfortable finger picking.

Panga Panga fretboard
