The Ibanez SR400 bass guitar is very comfortable
to play. The neck is thin up at the headstock, you
can move your hand along it well because of the
necks finish. The SR400's neck at the back has
a matte finish making it very easy to slide your
hands up and down the neck. Its easier to play
the higher frets because the neck is a bolt-on
with a curve where the neck bolts.
The body of the Ibanez SR400 is contoured very
well. There are no sharp edges anywhere. You
can play the SR400 standing up or sitting comfortably.
If you are sitting down and put the bass on your right
thigh, it will stay balanced and not lean one way
or another.
The SR400 bass guitar is very playable because
the strings are loose. You won't have to play with
much force to get a sound, and it won't wear your
fingers out so much.
The pickups of the SR400 Ibanez are in "P/J"
configuration. There is a split "P" pickup at the
neck position and a single humbrucker at the
bridge. For each pickups volumn there are three
knobs and one for tone.
The Ibanez SR400 bass guitar stays in tune very
well. The tuners at the head are 2 on each side,
and they are Gotoh tuners. The tuners are not
to tight or loose, but they are light enough to keep
the strings in tune.
The SR400 bass is good for an intermediate guitarist,
and the best thing about it is its neck is so smooth,
playable, and thin.
