    Ibanez SR506 Strings

    Hey guys and gals! I have mostly played flats (Chromes, Rotos, and TIs) and am new to the six string game. And, I am looking for the best sounding of the very versatile rounds when playing fingerstyle (normally) and using a pick (aggressive plucking, chording, and soloing) with no slapping...

    ESP LTD B206-SM vs. Ibanez SR506

    Greetings! First official post here after reading for years. After about 30 years of playing bass, I’m looking to get a six string. Because I’ve always followed a “punk rock ethic” budget, I’m really only considering basses under $500. These two are both currently available locally, and I’m...

    Ibanez sr506 strip down and Tru-oil refinish

    The Ibanez sr506 is a great six string bass with a really crappy finish that wears off easily. I sanded off all of the old finish and took the time to refinish the body and neck with Tru-oil. Wow! I am happy that I did. I would recommend this to anyone with an sr506 that has a failing finish...

    Found Ibanez SR506 for $350 - good price?

    Hey, all. Been a while since I've been here - had an old account under the name "lunchmeat317" that I've forgotten the password for. I wanted your expertise, though! I've found an Ibanez SR506 (mahogany finish) at my local pawn shop, for $350. It seems as though it's been set up quite well; the...

    Should I get a used 5 string Jazz bass or Ibanez SR506?

    I am on my two final decisions and I was wondering if anybody had experience with either or both of these basses? So can a couple people help me and list the pros and cons of a 5 string Mexican jazz bass and the Ibanez SR506? Much appreciated!

    Making the plunge to 6 strings

    Greetings fellow bassters! I've been a strict 4 string player my whole life, always considering the low B to sound muddy, the high C to sound tinny. Not to mention Jaco didn't need any more than 4. I also played upright as my main focus for many years, and I liked to keep as much consistency as...

    As the name of the post would suggest, I'm in need of new pickups and electronics for an ibanez sr506.

    Fretless Ibanez SR506 Advice

    I learned Jaco was right and frets are just speed bumps, so I need a fretless to replace my trusty ESP. I've always loved the look and feel of the SR500s and just found a great price on the 506. Ibanez doesn't have a lot of 6-string fretless options, and I am not a portamento guy at all, so I...

    NBD Ibanez SR506 and a discovery

    Hey guys! I've been working on a project with a drummer friend, and at the outset we decided that we didn't want guitar driven music. We're trying to do a sort of instrumental electronic funk with indie elements, think Alt-J meets Griz, Ott, Glass Animals, etc. Ever since that decision I've...
