Description

Development of this bass started from one simple question; Can we create both fretted and fretless-sound on one bass? The SRAS "Ashula" is the simple solution from Ibanez. With its unique construction, both the fretted and fretless parts are on one neck, enabling solid tone, chord work, smooth playing, sensitive voicing, and so on. Why not go hybrid? The "Ashula" expands the possibilities of the bass guitar in ways you have never experienced.
