Overview
A small rehearsal room or home studio suits this Ibanez Gio five-string, which pairs a poplar body with a maple neck and rosewood fretboard. The SR design is described as having a smooth, fast neck and a lightweight body.
The extra string widens the range below a standard bass, and the fixed bridge means few parts to adjust. The pickup layout is given only as a code and the listing does not describe the controls or tone circuit.
Who it's for
A player learning five-string technique in a practice room gets a conventional layout and a jack for any amp. A buyer who needs a four-string bass or detailed pickup and preamp information should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Maple neck, rosewood fretboard
- Pickup details given as one code
- Controls and tone circuit unstated
- Case and strap unconfirmed
Performance notes
A neck of maple with a rosewood fretboard gives the smooth, fast feel the listing describes, and a poplar body is listed with a lightweight feel. The fixed bridge anchors the strings at a set point, so adjustment is by saddle height and intonation only.
