Beautiful Soundgear! I've been very curious about these! It looks like they're beginning to retire the well worn Bart MKs in favor of these Nordies... and I'm GLAD! Great video my friend!
I agree! The nordies sound pretty good!
idk it's just my ear or......it's like you play " 3 band fender P bass and forgot to lowering the mid knob and treble knob"
dont get it wrong ....it's very outstanding tonal characteristic....and beautiful woodgrain too.....
and yes......when i bought my sr1400 mlg......it is high action too....and i go to music technician to help me resettinh the neck and lowering the action..... maybe my hand such a whiner.....or the natural characteristic of thin and slim neck is make you have to resetting the neck more often ....or just because of humidity in my place.....
and thanks for reviewing this bass ivan...i am keep wondering what ibanez big break sounds like when it first come.....and you give me answer
Absolutely insane! Great bass and very good review! Thank you man!
Thanks! Here’s the full review: ruclips.net/video/mQZUZRmLgz4/видео.html
I've got an SR755 and I play it A TON. it's light, sounds great and has a crazy fast neck. For the price, it's the best bass I've ever owned. Hotrodded it with Bart NTMB with A/P and coil taps. Upgraded the Barts to the 'real deal' barts. Incredibly versatile bass!
Nice!! I bet it’s a killer bass 💪🏽
It's all the temperature changes it goes through during shipping. Tighten the truss, and it will be fine.
Yup
I love that vulfpeck sound!
Thank you! 🙏🏽
I had it custom set up by Sweetwater with different strings at low/medium distance to fret (they give you three options: higher - medium to low - low . I am happy the way they set it up, less action.
Glad to hear you are enjoying the bass :)
I have the 605 ..the action was nice and low bass is excellent super light
Nice! It’s a cool bass 🤘🏽
I love this bass.....
Hey Ivan,
nice first impressions by you about this pretty bass. Do you have any experiences in regard to the different variants of the Trbx series by Yamaha that you might bewilling to share with us? I am especially interested to learn about your thoughts towards the Trbx 504 and 604. So far I've only heard good things about them.
Thx and Tschüss! 😁
Thanks for watching! I’ve only played the RBX170, which was my very first bass
heyho
i own a Yam TRBX 605 in a beautiful amber finish..This bass is getting even better the more I play and explore it...great workmanship,gret neck profile, really good pickups and preamp...no need to change anything on this bass...just perfect the way it is ,plays and sounds...
I use it with a E,A,D,G C configuration..and tuned in dropped D..no need for a low B String...
its 34 inch scale...
kind regards...
higly recommandable bass in my opinion..the 4 string surely as well...TRBX4 i guess...
Ibanez neck profile is way to small for my hands...never get used to it..so that brand doesnt work for me...BTB does it but dont like the body design...
@@rawhead66 Thanks man, I really appreciate it that your share your view in this topic!
I ordered two tools to choose and buy one of them: sr500e and sr600e. Now I’m puzzled by choosing which one is better?))) Help me decide!
Hi Ivan, I very much enjoy your videos. Of the two, which model do you prefer, the SR 650 or the SR 600?
I preferred the 650 because of the P-Pickup
@@IvanBassist thank you.
Have one in Blue. Tuners let it down, I swapped mine out to a named brand. Bone nut fitted, that's a personal choice. East electronics next. Great bass, needed improvement.
Nice!
Every new instrument needs to be setup. The action is too high?
Yea it shouldn’t need a dramatic action setup for that price.
Looks the part definitely. I hope I can get an idea about how this differs from my SR650E from your review (when it comes). Essentially it's going to be the difference between the pickups as I see that everything else is the same.
My 655E 5 string I bought is identical except the pickups as well. And my action was too high too. I've heard all basses made in Indonesia have high action... but easily fixed.
The 650E that i tested came with nice action, which is why i was surprised about this one
@@IvanBassist Mine was OK-ish too. I don't think it's a serious issue though as the action is adjustable. A high nut is a more serious problem though, because it affects action (and intonation) and filing a nut down to the correct height can be easily botched. Unless it is done expertly, especially the E string can easily sound muted and bland. I had it happen on two of my basses and I had to change nut altogether (case 1 - an ESP-LTD B-204) or use pieces of paper to "tighten" down the string in the slot (case 2 - the SR650).
Amazing bass man! Congrats!
Hey Ivan, do you have any bass with dive neck? If yes, how do you deal with it?
I've just bought one beautiful one with this nightmare issue.
Hey there! Ibanez sent me the bass for the video test, but it’s going back after i’m done testing 😄
About the neck dive: I don’t have any basses that actively neck dive when playing with a strap standing up. Some fall slightly when sitting down tho.
Which bass did you buy?
@@IvanBassist It is a P Bass (actually a PJ) of a brazilian brand. For use a bad combination of woods. Poplar body and maple neck. I'm managing using straps even sitted. But its annoying!
You could try to add ultra light tuners in order to reduce some of the weight of the neck
@@IvanBassist I think it could work. Thanks Ivan!
The only fix I know is a high-friction strap, and that's after owner a neck-diver.
I have a505e with bh2 barts. Not sure which i prefer
I prefer the Nordstrands. The barts are too dark sounding for my taste.
I have an Ibanez SR655 with Nordstrand P/J pick up configuration. For the price, they really take beating. I'm a little surprised at the high action on yours; maybe the instrument was the last one off the line on a Friday night!? I shouldn't think you'll have a problem getting it to play just right. Personally, I've always set up my basses myself and I encourage all players to do the same. With modern manufacturing standards, even cheaper instruments can be made to play well. Thanks for your reviews, Ivan.😉
I’ve already lowered the action and it’s working fine now. It was just a bit of a surprise because all the other Ibanez basses I’ve received for testing had a good setup right out of the box.
Glad to hear you like the videos!
Hey 👋 buddy thanks for the awesome reviews, keep it up 👍, also I’m in between buying the Ibanez SR606e or Fender ultra Precision bass I know they’re totally different basses I like them both but my question is for the investment as my last bass which one would you choose to buy? I really value your opinion :)
That’s a very tough question considering that a) they are very different basses like you said, b) they are in totally different price ranges c) I don’t know what kind of music you play.
@@IvanBassist I play anything from Arabic/Assyrian and funk, Latin nearly all styles 😊
I’ll make it easier what if I’m getting it for collections? :)
Between those two basses i’d say get the ultra, because of the higher build quality
@@IvanBassist thanks 🙏 brother well said 👍
Wonder if the action is high to minimize bass buzz. I have played the 200, 300 and 500 and I felt like there was a lot of buzz in those models…
If I remember correctly, They told me afterwards that the bass had been sitting in the container and did not have time to set it up before shipping it.
Què altura tienen las cuerdas? Y qué altura es la que prefieres tu?
No medi la altura, pero ya las ajuste un poco. Ahora se puede tocar mejor ✌🏽
Extremely light? I got mine today and it's 9.8 pounds. I'm kind of mad about it.
Sorry to hear that. The one i got is indeed super light. You can see me throwing it in the air in the video 🤷🏽♂️
Glad I saw this comment. I tried one in a store that was very light and I've been looking to buy one since. Is there really that much variation?
It looks like some 600E are 2-piece body and others are 3-part body. Maybe some different fabrication ? My 300E is 7.3 pounds, could be lighter than other 300Es.
If you think the 600 is light, you should pick up a 300.
Haha 😆
@@IvanBassist I wasn't joking. My 300 is half a kilo lighter than my 600.
@@mickavoidant4780My 300E is 3.3 kg. My 305E was 4.1 kg (sold). 1 more string : almost 1 more kg.
wEIGHT?
