Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Ibanez’s SRF700 Portamento is a 34-inch-scale, four-string fretless electric bass built with a mahogany wing body and five-piece Maple/Bubinga neck-through construction. Its extended 30-fret Panga Panga fingerboard reaches into upper registers associated here with upright bass. Bartolini MK-1 neck and bridge pickups work alongside the AeroSilk piezo system, with separate control sections for each. Individual piezo string-level controls on the back let you balance response when using different string gauges, making it a detailed instrument for shaping blended electric and piezo bass sounds.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Recording or stage setups that blend Bartolini pickup sound with the AeroSilk piezo system.
- Players using different string gauges who need individual piezo-string volume adjustment.
- Fretless bass parts that use the extended 30-fret fingerboard’s upper register.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require frets for note reference.
- Players seeking a bass with fewer than 30 fret positions.
