    Ibanez SR300e Pickup Size?

    Hey all! If any of you have a 4-string Ibanez SR300e with the PowerSpan pickups (2016 and later), could you please measure the pickup size? Debating getting one and wondering what upgrade pickups might fit in that space. Also, is the bridge recessed or simply surface mounted? Thanks!

    Absolutely kicking myself...

    Just a heads up, this is some blatant Ibanez content spoken by an admitted fanboy of said company. I remember years ago playing the SR300e basses when they were brand new. Liked the tone, thought the coil tap was a great feature paired alongside the 3-band EQ. They had some REALLY sexy finish...

    Ibanez models to consider for a beginner?

    When looking at the SR300EB WK, the black weathered look so durable, like the SR500E. It seems like the finish on the SR370E and SR400EQM will last longer. The SR370E uses maple instead of Nyatoh for the body. Is it worth an extra £50 over the SR300EB? The SR400EQM has a layer of maple on top...

    Question to Ibanez Sr300e owners

    Hi guys, Few days ago I bought a bass as in the title and I have a concern about a alighment/spacing/distance from string to the edge of fingerboard. I don't know how to call it. As you can see on the pics. The distance from E string and fretboard edge is much bigger than the same of G string...

    Refinishing Ibanez SR500 and SR300e

    I'm interested in buying one of these Ibanez SR300E basses in "weathered black" The body is mahogany and seems to be finished similarly to the SR500 - a thin lacquer finish that chips easily. Any idea on whether I could simply sand the finish off and stain/oil the body?

    Has anyone A B ed a SR300e to a SR 370e?

    Any difference in the sound? I know the only real difference is maple vs mahogany body, so does it cause any real tonal property differences? I personally would expect the 370e to be a bit brighter due to the maple. Though I have owned older 370s and 300s but they had electronics that weren't...

    NBD - Ibanez SR300E

    So I decided it was time to get a new bass. Partly because I felt I wanted something new to play to keep things fresh and interesting, partly because all my other basses are P or P/J-type basses. At first I had my sights set on a Jazz Bass. Looked at a few MiM's, but they were a bit pricy for...

    Ibanaz SR300E vs SR300 vs SR250 ???

    I just purchased a brand new Ibanez SR300E and I'm really digging it a lot, great sound, great neck and very lightweight. As a lifetime BEAD player I will file the nut slots on my new SR300E to accommodate the larger gauge BEAD strings I always use, 125 for the bottom B (ALL my P Bass's are BEAD...

    What's the difference between the Ibanaz SR300E and SR300EB ?

    My apologies for the dumb question but I'm new to getting an Ibanaz brand bass, 4 banger. Is the difference between the the SR300E and the SR300EB just the available color's ? And another question if anyone knows this answer, I'm an avid longtime BEAD tuned bassist, does anyone know what the...

    Hey, before starting, i just want to say that im new to this website and my english is not my first language. Anyway, I was looking for a bass, and the Ibanez basses are pretty good for me, so I saw this SR300e for 325 USD (6,500MXN) And then I saw a Used SR500 for the same price, it is in...

    Advice needed - Ibanez SR300E or Sire M3?

    I have mainly been a Fender and Music Man player, but lately have been wanting to add a more "modern" style active bass for some variety. Ibanez has been popular for a long time, so I naturally looked into their lines. Since this is somewhat of an experiment for me, I would like to keep my...

    Pickups for an Ibanez SR300e

    I wanna upgrade my pickups, I'm currently thinking of Bartolini MK4's. Can anyone confirm whether these pickups would fit? I've heard mixed things but would prefer a definitive answer. Also - if anyone has any further pickup suggestions instead of MK4's that'd be sweet, since I wouldn't mind a...

    Tin, Tin, Tin

    So I recently came across the Ibanez SR300E, thinking the PowerTap feature was pretty cool and for 350 was a great deal for the amount of electronics packed into the thing. I bought it at GC where I played for about 30 minutes, loved the fast neck, asked if there were different colors and...

    Ibanez SR300 vs SR300E

    Hello, this is my first post so I guess I should introduce myself. So, my dad gave me his old Kramer when I was 12 and I've been playing it ever since (I'm 22 now). I couldn't afford to get myself something better, and the old thing did the job fine, until recently I've been invited to join a...

    Ibanez SR300E Distorting

    This bass is brand new. I sent it out for it's free setup. The action still feels a little high for what I like. But if I lower it it buzzes! I have also noticed while practicing through my headphones if I max the preamp controls and the volume I get major distortion no matter what volume I...

    Ibanez SR300E

    I saw both the SR305E and SR300E at the local GC store last weekend so I tried them out. Wow. Great bass guitars, if the SR line was a good choice for easy playability, the Indonesian quality is even better with the SR300E ones. I was interested in the 305E but the 300E is so lightweight and...
