Great Bass Love The Color
Let me start out by saying I've owned a 2006 SR300 since it was new and absolutely love it, it is a great starter, backup or main instrument for players of all levels. I purchased it when I was still in bands and a band I was in needed a bassist. It was years since I played bass and I really think the SR300 made the transition easier. Now that said the 2021 SR300e blows the 2006… read more out of the water. It's sound modeling capabilities are on par with many more expensive bass', the neck is thin yet sturdy and it plays fast. The tonal options with the three band equalizer are infinite, with the right settings it'll sound somewhat like a P bass. But... No it's not a P bass or a Jazz bass, if that's what you want I suggest buying one of those. If you was a good inexpensive (not cheap) that isn't cheaply made then the SR300 or SR305 (five string version) are a great choice. I own both!
Bad pre-amp distortion.... Ibanez doesn't care....
So, I have to admit that I bought this one because of the color. It reminded me of Atsuko Yamano and I'm a big fan. Also, I figured it would be a nice backup/beater bass. However, the pre-amp has issues and distorts BADLY. So much that it makes the speakers in my cabinet flutter. I've swapped out the battery more than once with no luck. I contacted Ibanez asking if there was a trim… read more pot to adjust. They communicated with me ok. But, it was form letter questions. Eventually I made a GoPro video to demonstrate the issue. I included a couple of other active basses to show it wasn't the amp. They replied that the bass was functioning properly. And that if I didn't like the sound, I should just return the bass. REALLY? So, I found a YouTube video that shows how to bypass the pre-amp. Now the bass is a functional tool. I will be avoiding Ibanez in the future though.
