Ibanez SRF700 Fretless Bass - Brown Burst Flat

The SRF ”Portamento” offers a Panga Panga fingerboard that extends the length of the standard SR neck to a hefty 30-fret length. Several years in the making, the SR Portamento's new AeroSilk piezo system delivers an uncanny touch of hollow-bodied openness, and realizes the innovative Upright Double Bass sound to blend into the mix that both inspires and redefines the role of the solid body bass.

Bartolini® MK-1 pickups / AeroSilk piezo pickup
The Bartolini® MK1 pickups use a split coil design that provides a very wide frequency range and enhanced definition for maximum accuracy. The Neck and Bridge pickups have equal response, like traditional single coils, but without the hum and noise. The custom bridge contains the magic of the AeroSilk Piezo system to provide that sense of ”air” that characterizes upright sound.

Ibanez 2-band EQ w/Piezo active tone control
The EQ section incorporates the controls of the magnetic pickup(s) with the AeroSilk Piezo system. Controls include a Master volume, bass and treble controls for the pickup(s) and a Master volume and a tone control for the Piezo system.

Custom AeroSilk bridge
The Custom AeroSilk bridge was created specifically for the optimum performance of the AeroSilk Piezo pickup system. Unique plastic saddles work in concert with the piezo pickups and enhance the acoustic ”Upright” quality of the sound.
