Ibanez GIO SR GSR205-BMT Blue Moon Burst

Ibanez GIO SR GSR205 Electric Bass for Modern Low-End Power!

The Ibanez GIO SR GSR205 is a modern 5-string electric bass with a slim maple neck, lightweight Okoume body, two Dynamix H pickups and Phat II EQ. It gives you a versatile instrument for punchy bass lines, extended low-end parts and comfortable playability in the signature SR design.

Extended Range With Comfortable SR Ergonomics

As a 5-string bass, the GSR205 delivers the extra low-end range you need for modern rock, metal, pop, worship, funk and recording work. The 34" scale provides a familiar long-scale feel, while the extra low string expands your reach for riffs, grooves and more complex arrangements. The lightweight Okoume body helps keep the instrument comfortable whether sitting or standing. Combined with the SR's ergonomic contours, it results in a bass that plays direct, balanced and built for long sessions.

Fast Neck for Precise Lines

The maple neck with GSR5 profile is designed for comfortable playing and supports clean position changes, fast runs and controlled fretting-hand work. The Purpleheart fingerboard offers a stable playing surface with clear response and is neatly marked by white dot inlays. With 22 medium frets you have enough range for classic bass work, melodic fills and modern techniques. The 45 mm nut width provides ample room for five strings while staying compact enough for comfortable long sessions.

Dynamix H Pickups With Phat II EQ

Two Dynamix H pickups deliver a powerful, wide bass tone with a solid foundation, clear mids and strong presence. Use the two volume controls to blend neck and bridge positions precisely, while the tone knob quickly adjusts the highs. The Phat II EQ adds extra low-end push, making the GSR205 especially suited to punchy modern sounds. That lets you move between warm fundamentals, defined articulation and a heavier low end without making the setup unnecessarily complicated.

Solid Hardware for Reliable Performance

The B15 bridge with 16.5 mm string spacing provides stable contact, precise intonation and a comfortable attack across all five strings. Ibanez tuners, a plastic nut and factory stringing in .045/.065/.080/.100/.125 deliver a practical starting setup for rehearsal, stage, lessons and home recording. The G-to-B tuning opens the full 5-string range without needing to retune your instrument. This makes the GIO SR equally suitable as a first 5-string, a reliable workhorse for gigs or a flexible addition to an existing bass rig.
