An ergonomic and tonally versatile headless bass for the modern player.
The Ibanez EHB1505S headless electric bass guitar brings cutting-edge design and exceptional tonal flexibility together in one sleek package. This 5-string bass features a specially contoured, chambered body that makes it impressively lightweight and comfortable for extended playing sessions. Its unique construction also provides excellent balance whether you play seated or standing. The EHB1505S pairs premium tonewoods and top-notch components to achieve a powerful, nuanced voice perfect for the wide range of tones demanded by today's bassists.
Play in Comfort With the Ergonomic Body Design
The headless configuration of the EHB1505S removes unnecessary mass from the bass while enabling a compact, ergonomic body shape. The contoured body contours to your own, providing a natural feel and allowing unfettered access to the highest frets. A scooped cutaway behind the lower horn further aids your reach. The chambered African mahogany body minimizes weight without sacrificing resonant tone, while the figured poplar burl top lends eye-catching beauty. This lightweight yet solid construction makes the EHB1505S a joy to play on stage or in the studio.
Dial in Your Tone With the 3-Band EQ and Passive Control
The EHB1505S puts exceptional tonal control at your fingertips. Its 3-band EQ features bass, midrange and treble controls, including a variable mid control to sweep through a vast range of mid frequencies. An EQ bypass switch activates a passive tone circuit governed by the treble knob for organic tone shaping options. Whether you want deep, thunderous lows or bright, funky attack, the EHB1505S EQ system provides the tools to craft your signature sound.
Play All Night With Superior Comfort and Playability
Several smart design choices make the EHB1505S a dream to play for extended periods. Its 9-piece Panga Panga and walnut neck delivers tight, focused tone and excellent stability. Medium stainless steel frets provide smooth playability along the panga panga fingerboard. For customized string spacing, the MR5 bridge's sliding saddles provide a +/- 1.5mm range of adjustment. Luminescent side dots aid positioning in dark settings. The ergonomic body shape enables comfortable playing stance, while a detachable finger ramp facilitates fingerstyle techniques. The included gig bag safely transports your EHB1505S to gigs and rehearsals.
Unleash Your Creativity With Exceptional Tonal Versatility
From deep dubstep wobbles to jazz harmonics, the EHB1505S empowers you to explore new sonic possibilities. Its NordstrandTM Big Split pickups serve up a rich, balanced voice with single-coil snap when split. The 3-band EQ with sweepable midrange provides exceptional tonal control. A passive tone circuit expands your options even further. Express yourself with the vast tonal palette and comfortable playability of the Ibanez EHB1505S headless bass.
