At a Glance
The Ibanez SR405EPBDX is a professional-grade 5-string bass built for players who demand articulate, punchy tone in funk, fusion, modern rock, and metal settings. Its slim Maple/Walnut neck, PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups, and 3-band active EQ deliver the responsive, focused character the SR line is known for, with the extended lower register of a 5-string at a significant B-Stock savings. At 9 lbs 4 oz with a bolt-on neck, it balances comfort during long sets with substantial low-end projection and the visual impact of Mars Gold Metallic Burst finish and gold hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this bass?
B-Stock means this SR405EPBDX is fully functional with complete manufacturer warranty coverage, but has minor cosmetic imperfections on the Mars Gold Metallic Burst finish. These marks are purely superficial and have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity—you get a professional-grade instrument at a significant discount.
Is this bass suitable for intermediate players or is it professional-only?
The SR405EPBDX is built for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. Its slim 5-piece Maple/Walnut neck and responsive ergonomics make it approachable for developing players, while its articulate tone and active EQ versatility reward advanced technique and suit professional studio and live work.
What genres does this bass work best in?
The SR405EPBDX excels in funk, fusion, modern rock, and metal—genres where articulate, punchy tone with focused low end and tight mids are essential. Its active pickups and 3-band EQ are less suited to traditional jazz applications.
How does the 5-string configuration compare to a 4-string?
The 5-string adds a low B string for extended lower register possibilities while maintaining the SR line's articulate character and playability. The 34-inch scale and slim neck keep the instrument balanced and responsive despite the extra string.
Can I adjust the action and string spacing on this bass?
Yes—the Accu-cast B500 bridge features adjustable saddles, allowing you to dial in both string spacing and action to match your personal preference and playing style.
