I'm glad to see this bass getting reviewed....for what it is, it's a superb bass...

I hope to own a whole line of Ibanez basses someday...I want another four, a five and a six from them after I get a ton of money...but I will still keep my GSR around because there's nothing bad about it...

After playing around with a Cort Curbow's EQ, I do wish the GSR had more to offer in that department...but I really shape my tone more with my amp and my BP200 anyway

I love the body design on this bass, because it's perfect for sitting down to jam (the Curbow is not thanks to the deep cutaway) and it's easy to play with a pick, at least the way I do it (another strike for the Curbow...)

I think the 4.5 rating is good...this is not a PERFECT bass by any means, but you get a ton of bang for what little buck you put into it
