![The All-In-One BEAST! - Ibanez SR1600B [Demo]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/lLMzY8Sv-To/mqdefault.jpg)
I could listen to you say "Panga Panga" all day long
Panga panga
It's an Indonesian island just south of Wanasemipeepee and Kindawannalaya. Just saying.
Bought one of these when they first came out in '87, still going strong.
Different things, IMO. What you have is what is now called Prestige.
I bought the road star rb800.nice bass. Smelled like Coco puffs
@@keithmcclellan4350 Nice, the headstocks looked cool. Remember those little RB888's? I wish i wouldnt have sold mine, it was a pearl color bean bass.
Having toured Germany quite a bit the last few years, I really like hearing your accent. It alleviates the pain and stress of not being able to tour because of this pandemic.
Love your reviews, lots of detail about the Basses, great demo's and you make it all fun to listen to. I've been looking at the Ibanez SR series for my new Bass and your reviews have been really helpful.
René is back!!!! nice way to start the year indead ^__-
The Funky Gnome
@@FunkBaz hahaa :)
Man this guy can make any bass sound good what an awesome player !
Loving these. Great bass playing.
Yeah well! We are now awaiting the review of the EHB series! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to listen to basses from everywhere.
Those satin finishes look amazing. I haven't owned an Ibanez in 20 years, but based on the improvements I'm seriously considering one of these.
I have the sr1400 from last year. The SR basses at this price point are excellent. A great value
I love how it sounds and everything, nice growl and clean sound hopefully to get one, I love the bass.
It's really good news you specify the pickup setting of every demo. It helps a lot.
Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum neuen Studio ...
Nice sounding bass and good looking at the same time.
wow now I really want one of those. I was kinda meh on them before but those sounds really nice and look great.
Im unsure if its your accent or the content/playing that keeps me coming back :) keep up both....though guess you don't have a choice on one of those.
Love the grey one. ❤
The Premium series are a huge step up from the cheaper models. I really miss my SR1205.
The exact video I needed
Nice little Rush tribute at the end...thanks Rene!
Oh , i dont know anything about rush. Wich song is it? Thanks for watching!
Rene Flächsenhaar great playing by the way...sounds a little like the guitar in the bridge between the Tide Pools and Hyperspace sections of the song “Natural Science”
@@MacTeee Thanks man, will check this!
Rene Flächsenhaar you are a great bass player, so happy you continue with the demos!
@@larrygsThanks a lot for your kind words. Its always fun to me to sit in with basstheworld
Nice looking bass and it has a good sound.
great video!!.. Ibanez amazing bass!!!
That SR1345B is super articulate and deep-sounding bass.
Sr1345b
I liked the sound of my BTB675, but it is heavy, has sharp instead of contoured cadges, and haa a wide neck. I got an SR1306, but it's taking me a little time to get all the settings hust right for the sound I want. I got a lot closer last night my adjusting my compressor/limiter. As the pickups and preamp have a different output I'm doing little tweaks to get the tone I want. The SR is much easier to wear and much faster to play.
Great. I saw that one on the market. I wondered what it sounded like. The Norstrand pickups seem to sound better than Bartolini 's. It guess it all depends on what sound you want.
I want to hear more of your beautiful Eastern German accent indeed
The Nordy pups certainly help. But having owned a SR500 I still think that there's something missing tonally. Just not sure that there's enough wood to really impart some resonance on the strings. It's why I sold mine after getting a Fender Jazz.
So he mentions at 1:24 that the only difference between the basses is the colour and wood tops. Does anyone know how the different wood tops affect the basses? Asides from visuals I want to know how it'll affect the sound or playability ect.
Panga Panga.
I’m going to be checking back on the video just to hear how you pronounce Panga Panga. It seems I have been mispronouncing it for a long time lol!
Great review of some great basses, as usual, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Love the accent. Would love to visit the mother land myself someday.
I was apprehensive about these Big single pickups producing a lot of audible Noise and HUM, but it seems really controlled.
Awesome bass player!
Nice review
I had all fender basses, the SR300 E and a Warwick Corvette and send all back. I really love the sound gear neck but I’m a metal guy who wants to play 4 strings and as such Ibanez lets me standing in the rain. All black basses are cheap or 5er so I was forced to buy the leas edgy color for a 4 string and that’s the natural burst. But common Ibanez, give me the possibility to buy a iron label 4 string pls!
Muy guena... Me agrada mucho el sonido... 😊
Pls I have 2 quick questions on Bass SR2605 Premium. Those frets are really Stainless Steel? As they describing on the official site ... and Is there high polish to protect that beautiful finish against scratches and marks and is it really protecting it? And the one last , how balanced this bass is? Because a lots of SR models are neck heavy, because of their light bodies.... So is there any neck dive? It has tendencies to go down to its head? Pls Or someone who owns this bass
Great to get these (excellent) basses out of the way, now SHOW US THE NEW HEADLESS IBANEZZES!!!
We’ll record them in February!
@@basstheworldofficial Looking forward to it!
My new Ibanez SR600E with Nordstrand pups arrives this week, and I am sure it will make me sound just like René . . . but only in my dreams. 😪
Not gonna lie, I watched this video a while back while shopping for a new bass. Now, I come back to it every now and again just to hear Flächsenhaar play. Sick bassist.
...also panga panga 😂
What's the string spacing on the five string versions? Are we into jazz bass territory at least? Seriously thinking about getting one but I can't stand narrow string spacing at all....
Bridge allows for +/- 1.5mm adjustment
That's my passport photo ♡♡
Great video tho
If there was an option to buy them with Aguilar's super singles would be nice...
There is now one with the DCB's, different color and gloss finish. I like the looks, but the Aggies seem very flat, no bite. Just warm and round. Probably going for this one.
I bought one just so I could say Panga Panga. Also it’s an amazing bass. Thanks for making great content.
I need a 1 hour panga panga video plis xD
Really good bass, but amazing bass player!
Can you guys make a review on the brand called Cort Bass guitars?
They do reviews on Cort basses. Look it up. I just purchased the GB74 GIG. They did a review on it. They also did a review on the GB74 JJ.
I'm a fan of Ibanez but the basses I've heard (and own) are just lacking something soundwise. There's a sort of blandness about the tone. I'm probably going to swap out the pickups in my Ibby at some point, just need to find the right ones.
Try swapping out the preamp before swapping out the pickups, especially if you own one of these Premium series basses with the killer Nordstrand pickups.
@@SaiyanMikey That's a good idea. I have the SRFF805 with Bartolini BH-1 pickups. I was actually considering putting Nordstrands in there. I also have a Dingwall NG2 and was considering putting the same Darkglass preamp into the Ibanez.
@@SaiyanMikey Exactly, it seems these preamps make there basses sound similar no matter what pickups they’re using.
I love the way Ibanez's SRs look and their playability, but the tone always comes across a bit thin to me.
That's look great, perfect construction and they have a very nice feel when playing, but like any other Ibanez I find them extremely dull. Exotic woods don't make a difference.
Can’t go wrong with Ibanez
Have you reviewed an ATK?
"...beautiful Eastern German accent..." four words which I never thought I would hear combined in my lifetime.
🤣
What track is that being played at the beginning of the video??
its just something i made for this video.
Those Cort basses sound pretty good.
2:30 ....... Really nice!
1:33 just as a little note, I'm not sure about all the specs of the current lineup, but soundgears have not always been bolt on.. I own an SR1006 prestige and an SR800 from the mid 2000s and both are neck-thru builds... I know that when they started coming out with the new premium line a few years ago there was an SR1400 and SR1400T which was a neck thru option... Personally I would prefer if they would continue to make the higher end basses with neck-thru construction but that's just my personal preference.... und ja, deine deutsche accent ist sehr schon xD xD
I think the neck thru mid 2000s was the sr900 & 905. I've got the 4 string model and I still use it regularly 😁
why wasn't the 1105B included?
These are the basses Ibanez sent us
Glad to see they are reinforcing the necks, before they were too flimsy, IMO.
Are those basses have 'neck-dive' problem? I want to listen your honest answer. Are those well balanced?
I just got an SR505 and no neckdive whatsoever. Was impressed as my bass body only weighs a little over 8 pounds.
soundgears don’t have neck dive problems any one who says they do has weak little twig arms that can’t hold a bass
SR1345B here. No neck dive whatsoever and plays and sounds great.
@@Synsizer How is the acoustic tone of the SR1345b? Can yoy feel the vibes in the wood?
@@anderstromborgbrstrup4413 I have had no experience with acoustic bass. So I really can't accurately speak on that topic. I will say I have been able to get a wide plethora of usable and excellent tones out of this beast. Personally, this is one of the most enjoyable instruments I have owned. And I have owned MANY professional instruments. Go play one if you can. Only you will know if it is right for you. Good luck!
I'm not big on the body style. You can get the tone of Ibanez's most notable rock bass endorser, Fieldy.
medium quality basses, but good for gigs as they are light wieght, now for recording, fender jazz bass 70 nat
The Amish dude is back....good player....👍
had to spend some time in the woods.....
So I have a Cort B5 Plus ASRM, which I bought instead of a Ibanez SR375, and after looking at these new Premium Ibanez bass guitars I still think my Cort is so much more worth it.... I would still take my Cort B5 over these Ibanez Premium basses any day, especially compared to the quality, sound and price of the Cort. Thoughts on my opinion?
My thought is that you're wrong 🤣 But Cort has some good stuff that stands on its own.
I just sent back a Cort A5PLUSSC & purchased an Ibanez Premium. To me the Cort’s B string was non existent above the 12th fret. Not so with the Ibanez. The Cort’s neck seemed a little more chunky as well. But I love Cort Basses overall. I wanted the A5 Ultra Ash but they can only be found in Europe. If I didn’t like it I didn’t want to have to send it back.
I would subscribe just to hear you say panga panga again
Me Dá um baixo desse de presente ? Lindos adoro baixo
1:02 Cory Wong That's my passport folio
It seems to be all slapping or this thin, pecky bridge pickup playing. It's kind of hard to get an idea of the actual tone of the bass. (That said, I overall really like the videos and demos!)
Ibanez for life!! Modern tone, modern feel, tight string spacing, amazing quality. Not the biggest fan of the Nordstrand Big Singles, doesn't have the clarity of the old Bartolini's and harmonics are INSANELY difficult to get singing.
I feel the problem is the preamp... This have 500k in blend and volume... This value loss the real bass and mid bass... Vs 250k sound more organic... Warm
Haha he figured it out, half the reason I’m here is for the accent
René is back great where is Lars
Hey, gibt's den auch als Lefthand-Edition?
Metal Girl würde mich auch interessieren 😉
@@PureBassifying Für uns gibt's echt nicht viel Auswahl...🙄
ich glaube nicht
@@basstheworldofficial Kannst du auch mal gute Lefthander vorstellen?
Im not a Ibenez fan.....but Not bad!
Love to see the Amish get funky. Makes me feel good inside.
3:48 damnnnnnn
That Amish looking dude is a very good player.....well done....
Looks cool, but Indonesian made SRs have serious intonation problem, very often. (Weird bridge, poorly routed neck pocket..)
Buy a prestige
And it's all self-suggestion =)
I own a premium and have 0 problems. Love it! I even have light gauge strings 120-40 DR’s and 0 problems. But I hear you!
I have the SR 1345B No probs whatsoever with intonation (or anything else for that matter).
2:46
3:48 Does he djent?
nope :)
More of they figured out what worked for their Soundgear line. SAME stuff, okkkkk!
I have the 1345b. Not a bad bass, not a great B string though.
Just the opposite opinion here. My Ampeg classic preamp pedal may be helping. Either way though, everyone who has heard mine has thought the B was excellent.
@@Synsizer Maybe I got a bad one. Also the active electronics died. It was returned. I now have a Lakeland Skyline 55-01 deluxe, extremely pleased with that. She’s a keeper.
@@bassonthemark8191 Great to hear! Those are really nice too. My SR 1345B is absolutely awesome with no probs at all. Sorry you had that experience, but at least you ended up with something your happy with. Enjoy!
@@Synsizer and I will say this. I have an Ibanez SR 500. My first bass. Love it. There will be another Ibanez in my future. They are fantastic basses.
So literally every other Ibanez
Say ponga ponga again!
Panga Panga!!!
first thing , that ibanez should do w their SR premium 5 string version should be fix that fckn neck diving, its one of the worst that ive experienced. And like everyone told me , there is no neck dive at all. I suppose ppl. dont know what neck dive is. that means if u sit ur bass on ur lap it shouldnt go right away down on its head.
The proper bass strap will completely alleviate that eazy peazy. Worked for me anyway. Had 2 basses that had neck dive and neither drop with that strap on it. Many straps will work, just have to experiment.
The voice is a bit strangely recorded. Its a bit flimmering i would say
I'd like it better with humbuckers.
Wouldn't have the same tonal range I don't believe. I bought it specifically for the Nordstrands. This bass is butt kick'n. I added a noise gate for places where noise comes through the pickups. It did not change the character of the sound whatsoever and kills the noise when a note is not being played. Worked flawlessly. This bass sounds and plays great. Exactly what I wanted in this price range.
@@Synsizer A noise gate seems like a reasonable solution, but for me I just can't stand the hum, so I'd prefer humbuckers. The first thing I do to any bass with single coils is rip them out for something hum cancelling. Nordstrand makes a double coil in the same size I think.
@@CordScott Totally get it. Your me several months back. I was determined to get humbuckers ONLY, no exceptions. Then I picked up one of these and immediately heard the exact sound I was looking for. And quickly found a half dozen others useable in other songs and genres. It kind of upset me cause I knew I found that ever so hard to find sweet spot sound and yet, the pups were single coil..yuk! Noise was VERY low, but I hate ANY noise whatsoever. I tried many more humbucker basses and finally gave up. This was the one. Most places I would hear no to very little noise except MY music room. Figures, right? Anyway, I ordered a 34 dollar sonic cake noise wiper mini pedal due to reviews and BAM, problem over. I do mean over too. Doesn't cut off early at all when using my compressor/sustainer. But does cut off immediately if muted or sound drops below my set threshold. As far as noise when playing: when playing the noise floor is SO low you can't hear it even using bass only. With other instruments playing we are really talking absolute zero. After paying over 1500 with tax for the bass, I really didn't care in the least to spend 34 bucks on the pedal, especially that resolves the issue completely. And yes, I have heard the big blades (humbucker version of the singles) and though they are very nice, they just lose a bit of what the singles have to offer, and I wanted it ALL. If you ever hear a set of singles you really fall for, try giving the pedal a quick try and you may be surprised, I was. Current set up is Peterson strobostomp pedal, Ampeg classic preamp pedal, Ampeg compressor pedal, Sonic Cake Noise Wiper and a Hartke Bass Attack 2 for recording or DI. Getting an Eden I90 chorus pedal and a TC electronic Up/Down Octave pedal very soon. Amp is Fender Rumble 500 and adding the extension cab next month for playing out. Enjoy your bass!
@@Synsizer Thanks. Seems like a good solution. I guess I just have some sorta OCD about the hum, or my ears are sensitive to it. I play a lot through my mesa preamp pedal at home when learning songs for gigs so any noise is super noticeable. And at gigs I've always hated single coil hum though front of house. I know the gate pedal takes care of that problem, but at the end of the day I kinda want a self contained solution in the bass itself. I guess I just can't mentally get past it and yes I know its illogical.
@@CordScott Lol, yeah I get it. Main thing is we each found what works for us and are pleased with it. Different strokes and all. Thx for the response!
Почему у меня такое ощущение что он говорит по немецки, но английскими словами?
Im buyin one to say panga panga
No slap? 😭
Sure????? :)
my dream is to have a bass like this but I don't have financial conditions
BAD CHOICE, BUY YOURSELF A FENDER
@@andrejpliaskin9444 Mmm yes me like most generic bass brand mmm
Well, it's a year later. Did ya save up and get one, or something else? I'm just now getting one. Really nice axe.
1:31 puga punga lol
shouldnt this demo guy not be able to use technology?
Laziest vid you've made.
Whaaaat?
Man plays bass in room full of amps. Wears headphones.
but he plays really nice basses.
That’s a studio thing
@@basstheworldofficial Yeah.. I know... however it's still funny as hell to look at.
Panga panga!
