The Ibanez EHB1500 headless electric bass brings innovative design and premium features to deliver exceptional playing comfort, rich acoustic tone and versatile electric voices. Designed for the progressive bassist, the lightweight EHB1500 has an ergonomic body shape that makes playing enjoyable whether seated or standing. The gorgeous figured poplar burl top on the African mahogany body generates vibrant resonance for your notes to sing clearly. With its easily adjustable truss rod and smooth-playing panga panga fingerboard, the EHB1500's 9-piece panga panga and walnut neck provides authoritative attack and singing sustain.

Nordstrand Pickups Offer a World of Tonal Possibilities

Equipped with a set of Nordstrand Big Split humbucking pickups, the Ibanez EHB1500 supplies you with a wide spectrum of punchy, balanced bass tones perfect for any musical situation. The Nordstrand pickups capture the EHB1500's rich resonance and strong fundamental tone, delivering even output across the strings. Dial in the perfect blend of lows, mids and highs with the onboard 3-band EQ, which lets you hone in on the ideal midrange frequency. Bypass the EQ with a quick flip of the switch for a transparent passive tone shaped by the treble control.

Built for Ergonomic Comfort and Playability

The headless design of the EHB1500 removes excess weight from the headstock, creating an evenly balanced and lightweight instrument that feels fantastic on stage or in the studio. The ergonomically contoured body shape enables a consistent playing position whether you're sitting or standing. The chambered mahogany body further reduces weight while enhancing resonance. The EHB1500's slick panga panga fingerboard invites fast playing across its smooth surface, while the 24 medium stainless steel frets provide excellent intonation and lasting durability.

Premium Components Deliver Rock-Solid Performance

Outfitted with high-end components, the Ibanez EHB1500 delivers exceptional stability, tuning accuracy and reliability even under demanding playing conditions. The MR5HS bridge is designed specifically for EHB basses, with each piece solidly mounted to the body for maximum energy transfer. Precision tuners with Teflon washers enable smooth and precise tuning adjustments. Premium Schaller S-Lock straps locks and Neutrik output jack securely anchor your strap and cable. With its premium design and components, the Ibanez EHB1500 provides everything discerning bassists need in a high-performance headless bass.
