5-Piece Maple/Walnut Neck & Jatoba Fretboard

The fast and stable 5-piece Maple/Walnut neck delivers excellent attack, clarity and sustain. Ibanez’s slim SR neck profile ensures effortless playability, especially for fast passages and extended range bass lines.

Paired with a Jatoba fretboard, the SR405EQM offers a balanced midrange response with crisp, articulate highs, making every note clear and defined.

Quilted Maple Top & Nyatoh Body

A beautifully figured quilted maple top not only enhances the bass’s visual appeal but also adds snap and tonal definition. Beneath it, the Nyatoh body provides a warm, resonant low end with excellent sustain, keeping the bass punchy yet musical.

Equipped with Ibanez PowerSpan Dual Coil pickups, the SR405EQM delivers rich, dynamic output with enhanced harmonic detail and high-frequency clarity. These pickups are designed to reduce noise while maintaining powerful low-end response and articulate mids.
