Ibanez GWB1005 Gary Willis Fretless 5 String Bass (Natural Ash)
This 5-string masterpiece is the end result of a collaboration of Ibanez and master bassist Gary Willis. Crafted by the same master luthiers who brought you the Bob Weir Limited Edition, it is made of well-grained light ash that's left natural for a look of sheer elegance. The GWB style neck is 3-piece maple, with an Ebonol fingerboard that has offset pearl dot inlays and fret markers. An impeccable tone is provided by the Bartolini pickup that's made just for this bass, as well as the Bartolini NTBT EQ. The black hardware includes a STD bridge, sealed tuners, and multiple strap buttons for different playing positions. Hardshell Case included.
