Thinner neck for easier fretwork.
A millimeter may not seem like a lot in many situations, but in the case of the neck of a bass guitar, it can make a world of difference as far as playability. The 2008 model of the Ibanez SR530 is a millimeter thinner than the 2007 version, giving those with smaller hands a chance at working the fret that much easier. It also features Bartolini MK1-4 neck and bridge pickups for capturing the smooth, warm tones resonating off the mahogany body. The electric bass guitar also includes a Bartolini MK1 3-band EQ for altering your sound to your own tastes, and a Accu-Cast B20 bridge to keep your strings in line no matter how hard you attack them.
