Ibanez built the GSR205SMCNB as part of its GSR sub-line within the broader SR Series, positioning it as a five-string electric bass with an emphasis on figured tonewoods at an accessible tier of the range. The model carried a Spalted Maple top over a Poplar body, paired with a Maple neck designated the GSR5 profile.
The Jatoba fretboard featured white dot inlays and medium frets, with a 305mm radius and a 34-inch scale (864mm). Nut width measured 45mm, widening to 67mm at the 22nd fret; neck thickness ran 21mm at the first fret and 22mm at the twelfth. String spacing at the bridge was 16.5mm. Pickup duties were handled by a passive Dynamix H humbucker at the neck and a passive Dynamix H humbucker at the bridge, with onboard tone shaping provided by the Phat II EQ. The B15 bridge and all remaining hardware were finished in black. The instrument was offered in a Charcoal Brown Burst finish.
Owners sourcing replacement components — bridge saddles, strap buttons, tuning machines, or pickup covers — should cross-reference the B15 bridge specification and the black hardware colour when ordering. A qualified guitar technician or luthier can assist with setup, nut replacement, and confirming compatibility of any aftermarket parts with the five-string spacing.
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
