Thumbs up Ibanez GSR190 Jumpstart Pack

Comes with a bass, amp, tuner, cable, picks, and a gig bag.

Bass Specs
  • Maple GSR4 Neck
  • 22 Medium Frets
  • Rosewood Fretboard
  • B10 Bridge
  • STD P Neck Pickup
  • STD J Bridge Pickup

The GSR190 is like a GSR200, but with out the Phat Boost or whatever they call the 4th knob. Basically an old GSR200.

Review

Overall a good starter pack. The bass had a some fretbuzz when i first got it, but a setup fixed that. The bass is built well and pretty durable. The neck is thin and feels good to me. The amp is good for practicing by yourself. Too weak for use in a band situation. I think it sounded better when i took the back off, but thats just my opinion.

Rating: 9/10

You forgot the "rating" bit of the review . Also, you didn't comment on how you liked or disliked the GSR, you just described how it is.
