Ibanez Gio GSR205PC 5-string Bass Guitar - Transparent Pale Black Burst

The GSR205PC in Transparent Pale Black Burst has a moody, refined look that belies its affordable price. The okoume body and purpleheart fretboard aren't woods you typically find on budget instruments, and they make a real difference -- the tone is rounder, warmer, and more musical than what you'd expect from the Gio line.

Under the hood, dual Dynamix humbuckers and the Phat II EQ give you everything from clean fingerstyle warmth to overdriven pick attack. The maple neck is fast and stable, and the B15 bridge provides solid intonation across all five strings. A smart choice for gigging musicians on a budget or students who want a 5-string they won't outgrow quickly.
