Ibanez built the SR5006OL as part of the SR Prestige Series, positioning it at the upper tier of the SR bass line as a six-string instrument finished in oil. The Prestige designation indicated domestic Japanese production standards within the SR range, and the oil finish treatment was reflected in the model suffix.
The bass was constructed with an African Mahogany body, wenge top and back, and a five-piece wenge/walnut Atlas-6 HP neck reinforced with KTS titanium rods. The wenge fretboard carried 24 medium frets with Prestige fret edge treatment and mother of pearl and abalone oval inlays. Electronics consisted of a pair of passive Bartolini Custom pickups — one at the neck, one at the bridge — fed into an Ibanez Custom Electronics three-band EQ with an EQ bypass switch, a passive tone control on the treble pot, and a three-way mid-frequency switch. Hardware throughout was finished in gold. The MR5S bridge was set at a 16.5mm string spacing. The Graph Tech BLACK TUSQ XL nut measured 54mm wide at the nut position, with the neck reaching 83mm at the 24th fret, 19.5mm thickness at the first fret, and 23mm at the twelfth. Scale length was 864mm (34 inches) and the fretboard radius 500mm. The instrument shipped strung with Elixir strings gauged .032/.045/.065/.085/.105/.130 in standard six-string bass tuning B through C.
Owners sourcing replacement parts — including compatible bridge saddles for the MR5S, Graph Tech BLACK TUSQ XL nut blanks, or Bartolini-compatible wiring components — should consult a qualified luthier or bass guitar technician familiar with Prestige-series instruments.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
From the people who own them
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.
Owner photos
Put yours on the record.
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.
What do you know about this one?
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.
