Ibanez: SRC6 bridge

Here's a close up of the SRC6's bridge- it's Ibanez's own Tight End (TE) model. This isn't a breakthrough debut as the TE is a guitar bridge already used in the RG1451 (CLICK). The implications here are that, despite wanting to go deeper into the lower frequencies, bassists would have to re-think this consideration as the slots here simply could not accommodate thicker gauges. It would also mean that this SRC6 sports a guitar string spacing so if you wish to replace the nut with some other preferred material, you can easily shop for replacements.
