Ibanez Standard TMB35-MGR Mint Green - 5-String Electric Bass

I bought one of these 5 strings, and it’s a fantastic guitar for the money, I actually got is 2nd hand for around 130! Mental! I like it so much I want a 4 string now

良き

This bass knocked my socks clean off. There is a real issue with neck dive, given the proportions and weight of the tuning hardware, but if you play with the bass up higher towards the chest, in a slap position for instance, the balance feels perfect. The pickups are loud, clear, and passive, which is a huge plus for a lot of folks.

Purtroppo ha completamente disatteso le mie aspettative. Carino solo da vedere, nulla più.

You know for the money this is a very useable reliable 5 string short scale. I'll be honest I really don't enjoy playing 5 string basses but it's a tool every bassist should have. I have tried/own several sub $1500 5 string short scales.....not in love with any of them. A friend recommended this bass and I have to say it's well worth the $329.99 price tag. Feels solid, sounds really good for a passive bass and it's pretty cheap. My only complaint and this is not with the bass itself is finding 5 string short scale flat wounds for it.......like finding a Unicorn.

珍しい仕様なので、怖い物見たさでつい購入してしまいましたが。 ・フレットの打ち込みがちょっと雑でビビリが出る箇所がありました。 ・5弦のブリッジを最も下げてもオクターブチューニングが合いませんでした。 ・J側のボリュームノブが弦に近くてちょっと邪魔 ・交換用の弦が補修用部品扱いらしくWebで販売しておらず店舗で注文しなければならない 等々、実用には少々難がありました。 でもそんなに音は悪くなく、弦間も広めでスラップもやり易く、左手も超らくちん。お遊び的には楽しいベースです。でも楽器としては1～2万円くらいの安ベースのほうが良いです。コレクションとしては面白く話の種にもなりますけど。 #2024/01/16追記 専用弦、Amazonでも買えるようになっていました。 https://www.amazon.co.jp/Ibanez-STG-TMB35-045-130-30%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%E3%83%81%E3%82%B9%E3%82%B1%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB5%E5%BC%A6%E3%83%99%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B9%E5%BC%A6-TMB35%E5%B0%82%E7%94%A8/dp/B0BLNJB3LN/
