Detail 01
Hexa Mid system with 3-way mid-frequency switch
Provides six selectable mid-frequency options alongside the 3-band EQ.

Independent shopping perspective
Ibanez’s Prestige SR4500 is a four-string bass built around an ash body, a five-piece S-TECH maple/walnut neck, and a roasted maple fingerboard. Nordstrand Big Single pickups feed the Sonitech 3-band EQ, while the Hexa Mid system gives six mid-frequency choices for more deliberate sound shaping. An EQ-bypass switch changes between active and passive operation quickly. Luminlay side dots help with position reference under dark-stage lighting, and the included hardshell case supports taking it to rehearsals and performances.
