NBD, flame maple Ibanez

Traded a SX electric guitar to my neighbor for this flamed maple Ibanez bass that he found at a flea market. It is a Chinese Gio, but has no model number on the back of headstock like my Mikro. I assume it is a GSR200, but searched the web and can't find anything on a Gio that looks like this. I did find the sn. and indicates a 2004-12 production. Any ideas on model/year?

edit: Found a source for Ibanez catalogs. It was listed in the 2009 catalog as an Amber Burst GSR200FMAMB.

It has the bass boost/battery.
