Ibanez Gio SR 4-String Bass Phat EQ

A good next step for students building confidence on bass, Ibanez GSR200 GIO gives learners a standard 4-string feel with a bit more tone-shaping than a basic beginner model.

The PJ pickup layout covers plenty of school band styles, while the Phat II EQ adds extra low-end when students need a fuller sound for ensemble work or performance.
