Ibanez SR1350B DUF Dual Mocha Burst Flat Premium Electric Bass
Description
Ibanez SR1350B DUF Dual Mocha Burst Flat Premium Electric Bass
The SR1350B DUF is engineered for recording-focused players who demand articulate response and tonal flexibility across sessions. Its slimline neck profile and balanced body weight—defining strengths of Ibanez's SR series—enable precise finger technique and extended comfort during tracking. The titanium-reinforced panga panga neck paired with a bound fingerboard and abalone inlays delivers the premium construction necessary for capturing consistent, professional-grade tone session after session.
Playability & Build Quality
A titanium-reinforced Atlas neck in panga panga with a 24-fret bound fingerboard maintains stable intonation and neck relief through long studio days, critical for phase-locked bass lines and punchy fills. The 34" scale ensures traditional low-end foundation. The walnut top with panga panga strip over an African mahogany body adds visual character while contributing tonal warmth—ideal for blending with drums and kick without muddiness. Premium fret edge treatment keeps finger noise minimal during overdubs, and the flat finish preserves the natural wood tonal character without finish coloration.
Tone & Electronics
Twin Nordstrand Big Single passive pickups capture punchy, articulate transients with impressive clarity—essential for definition in dense mixes. The Ibanez custom 3-band active EQ with a 3-way mid frequency switch and EQ bypass lets you sculpt tone within a take or across multiple variations—warm, vintage character for pocket work or modern attack for aggressive parts. The bypass switch with passive tone control on the treble pot provides a fallback to pure passive tone for tonal emergency edits.
