Ibanez SR500AL-MHL Left-Handed Bass Guitar, Mahogany Brown Burst Low Gloss
Left-Handed SR Versatility and Comfort
The Ibanez SR500AL-MHL brings the renowned SR series design to left-handed players, combining smooth playability, lightweight construction, and flexible electronics. Finished in Mahogany Brown Burst Low Gloss, it offers a refined aesthetic alongside reliable, gig-ready performance.
The Okoume body keeps the instrument lightweight while delivering a clear, resonant tone with balanced lows, mids, and highs—ideal for a wide range of genres and playing styles.
Stable Neck and Powerful Electronics
Built for consistency and durability, the 5-piece roasted maple and walnut neck resists temperature and humidity changes, ensuring dependable performance in any environment. Its slim profile allows for fast, comfortable playing, staying true to the SR’s signature feel.
The rosewood fretboard enhances warmth and midrange clarity, while medium frets provide precise articulation. Equipped with Bartolini® BH2 pickups, this bass produces a tight low end, punchy mids, and smooth highs with excellent string-to-string balance.
The Ibanez Custom 3-band EQ, paired with a 3-way mid frequency switch and EQ bypass function, allows for detailed tonal shaping and easy switching between active and passive sounds.
