Ibanez brings personality and an unmistakable sense of style to the bass guitar. They know that the bass requires a very specialized approach and as a result, they have taken the extra time needed to build their basses to serve as the foundation for any type of music. AMS has a wide selection of Ibanez basses and we’re here to help you find the exact one you’re looking for! Just like their electric guitar siblings, Ibanez basses are organized by production series - which takes the type of materials, levels of fine-finishing custom work, the country of origin, and group-specific features into consideration. They are also categorized by model, based on physical body shape and specific build parameters. So, for example. . . when you’re looking at an Ibanez SR Premium, that is an ‘SR’ model in the ‘Premium’ series.

Let’s start with the popular Ibanez bass guitar models:

Sure, there are times where the bass frequencies need to be heavy, but your bass doesn’t have to be! An Ibanez SR bass has all of the energy and weight that the low-end demands, all in a thinner, lighter, and quicker instrument. These basses are remarkably easy to wield - their smooth, gliding body contour and balance all the way up and down the neck are key features. Originally released in 1987, Ibanez ‘Soundgear’ basses have been a dominant power throughout the musical landscape for decades – no matter if that space is funky, heavy, rocksteady, or experimental. There is a wide range of brilliant finishes and pickup configurations available in 4-string, 5-string, and 6-string models. Whether you’re on the lookout for a budget-friendly first bass, a step-up instrument, or a professional model, AMS has the right Ibanez SR bass for you!

Ibanez BTB basses are things of beauty, and the visual aspect is just the very beginning. First, start with the neck-thru construction, solid bodies that sport beautiful combinations of different woods, and the deep double-cut design that really does mimic putting your hands up and throwing the double horns. The BTB’s 24 frets means extended range and these instruments really do make it easy to access the upper parts of neck. Next, it’s about having plenty of pickups, tonal colors, and switching options to choose from. 4, 5, and 6-string basses are represented, but you should also know that 7-string models are also available! An Ibanez BTB bass is just the thing to accompany the eager sonic adventurer and are ready for embark on some serious musical voyages.

The new Ibanez EHB bass brings an exciting level of performance flexibility and playing comfort to an instrument design that radiates a cutting-edge, modern look. The EHB’s headless construction and fresh body shape allow for a consistent playing position whether seated or standing, while the sweeping contours and chambered interior make for a lightweight, well-balanced bass that can be played for hours on end.
   
With an Ibanez Affirma (AFR) bass, you’re getting a boutique-style bass through and through – a statement-making design, neck construction centered around stability and freedom, and a tonal palette that is pure, tight, and confident. The first AFR models burst onto the scene back in the 1990s and they are continuing to turn heads and wow listeners. Ibanez Talman basses are genre-leaping creative tools that reference one of Ibanez’s vintage body styles, while combining a P-style neck pickup and J-style bridge pickup into a comfortable package – now that’s tonal freedom! Looking for classical double bass tones without needing to swallow up tons of space? The Ibanez Upright Bass is a modern, compact solution with a robust sound that can also accommodate plucking and bowing.

Having seen the models, here are the different Ibanez production series:

The bass really does deserve its own space! That is how Ibanez Bass Workshop got its start as a collection of instruments geared toward bassists who aim to express their music in unique ways. These basses are all about new ideas, new layouts, new build approaches, and ultimately, new instruments that can meet the needs of a very particular brand of musician. Bass Workshop shows that one size shouldn’t attempt to fit all – you’ll enjoy the right instrument for your voice, one that stands in the balanced center of value, inspiration, and performance.

A Japanese-made Ibanez Prestige bass is brilliant in both its artistry and sonic consistency, representing the steadiness, craftsmanship, and pure performance power that has come to define Ibanez’s devotion to the instrument for over forty years. A Prestige bass will serve as your trusty musical companion through thick and thin!

‘A no-holds-barred professional bass that handles your creative demands with ease, all at a comfortable price point.’ That’s exactly the type of endorsement that you’ll get from musicians who play an Ibanez Premium bass. With one of these axes, you’ll be able to dial in the types of bass sounds you crave, all with steadfast reliability.

If you’re looking for the widest selection of Ibanez finish colors, styles, and overall build layouts in a price range that allows you take advantage of our payment plans with no credit check, be sure to look at the Ibanez Standard line of basses. In addition to their popular 4-string instruments, you can also choose from 5-string, 6-string, and yes, even 7-string models!

Ibanez Gio basses represent the pure stylings of an Ibanez at a fraction of the price, making them the ideal instruments for beginners, studio enthusiasts, and gigging musicians who need a trusty axe while they are travelling. The short-scale Ibanez Mikro models in this lineup are just the thing for young players and people who would prefer a smaller bass, and they are available in a wide range of bright colors and popular finishes.
