Ibanez EHB1265MS NML 5 String Multiscale Electric Bass - Natural Mocha Low Gloss

Ibanez EHB1265MS NML 5 String Multiscale Electric Bass - Natural Mocha Low Gloss

The EHB’s headless construction, contoured body, ergonomic design, and chambered body make for a lightweight and comfortable instrument that’s excellent for long sets or practice sessions. This series also sports a combination of high-quality tone woods and versatile electronics, resulting in a cutting-edge, ultra-modern bass, capable of cutting though the complex landscape of tones required for today’s bassist.

The EHB1265MS features a stunning Walnut top and an Ash body for a pleasantly bright tone with rich sustain. The 9-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck and Panga Panga fretboard provide superior note attack, tight lows and increased sustain, while highly durable stainless steel frets accentuate tonal brightness. Luminescent side dot inlays provide clear visibility in dark environments and the truss rod adjustment is located at the end of neck for easy access. 

A pair of Bartolini BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range, and smooth response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response. The Vari-mid 3-band EQ features a variable mid-frequency control which allows you to dial in an incredibly wide range of sounds. There is also an EQ bypass switch for passive operation with the treble control acting as a passive tone control when the EQ is bypassed. The MR5HS bridge is designed especially for the EHB basses and features wide intonation range. Each bridge piece is independently and securely attached to the body for maximum vibration transfer, and the saddles are adjustable for string spacing +/-1.5mm, answering every bassist’s individual string spacing demands, no matter what playing style. Teflon washers are used on each tuner for a smooth tuning action. Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins and a Neutrik locking jack hold the strap and cable securely, and a detachable finger ramp and a gig bag are included with each instrument.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Ibanez EHB1265MS NML 5 String Multiscale Electric Bass, finished in Natural Mocha Low Gloss, is a great option for bassists who demand the best from their basses - the Bartolini pickups are incredibly versatile, and playability is smooth and effortless.
