At Sims Music, we love basses that balance speed, comfort, and serious tone—and the Ibanez Standard SR500N delivers all three in a big way. Its sleek, contoured okoume body is lightweight and ergonomically shaped for long gigs, while the fast SR-profile 5-piece roasted maple and walnut neck makes moving across all 24 frets feel effortless. Whether you’re locking into the groove or stretching out melodically, this bass stays comfortable, precise, and incredibly playable from the first note to the last.

Tone-wise, the SR500N is built to cover a ton of ground. A pair of Nordstrand Big Break pickups provide punchy lows, clear highs, and excellent articulation with quiet operation, while the Ibanez Custom 3-band EQ gives you powerful control over your sound for any style or setting. Premium hardware like the MR5S bridge and Ibanez tuners adds rock-solid stability and sustain, making this a dependable, stage-ready instrument that’s just as at home in the studio as it is under the lights.
