EHB Ultimate Ergonomic Headless Bass 5-String Multi-Scale Model
Ergonomic Headless Bass
The EHB is the ultimate ergonomic headless bass that is easy to carry and easy to play. Above all, it is the ingenuity of the bass's sound. The Ibanez Bass Workshop has taken a fresh look at headless basses, which have often been described as "unplayable" or "difficult to use," and has created a completely new headless bass, the EHB. The EHB is not a copy of any other headless model, nor is it simply a headless version of an existing design or shape.
EHB body ergonomically designed to fit the player in perfect balance, whether standing or seated.
The horns are shaped to balance the body and neck when played standing and to be easy to hold, while the body curve on the treble string side was designed with particular emphasis on fit and balance when played seated. The surface of the body is contoured to provide a sloping surface where the elbow rests. The body edges that come into contact with the body are all smooth and rounded. The back of the body is boldly cut to become thinner toward the bass strings. This is designed to enhance the fit when playing while seated and to allow for the angle of the eye when looking at the fingerboard inlays. In addition, the back of the horn on the treble string side is cut in a scooped shape to facilitate access to the high frets.
Chambering for a more sensuous feel of the body's sound
By experiencing the vibrations inside the body as they are in a hollow body, the player will be more aware of the sound he or she is making. This also leads to a slight weight reduction.
Vari Mid 3 Band EQ w/EQ bypass switch
As the abbreviation of "Variable frequency control for Mid EQ" indicates, this EQ offers more flexibility in Mid control. Normally, a 3-band EQ would divide the bandwidth into three bands (HIGH/MID/LOW), and the developer would arbitrarily set the focus of the specified frequency range and control the boost or cut. The Vari Mid allows the user to arbitrarily set the focus of the midrange. For example, the mid can be set to 100Hz, which is roughly in the bass range, and boosted to compensate for the lack of bass.
Bartolini BH2 pickup
The Bartolini BH2 pickups feature a well-balanced warm response with a tight bottom end and rich midrange.
