The Ibanez SR400EPBDX features a SR45pc Maple/Walnut neck with a Poplar Burl top over an Okoume body, fitted with a Jatoba fretboard with white dot inlays. The neck carries 24 frets with medium fretwire, offering a balance of playability and bending control. String spacing at the bridge is 19 mm, and the instrument is setup from the factory to 1G, 2D, 3A, 4E with D'Addario EXL165 strings (.045/.065/.085/.105).
Hardware is finished in gold, and the bridge is an Accu-cast B500 providing a stable anchor and consistent intonation. Pickups are PowerSpan Dual Coil units in both neck and bridge positions (passive), delivering a hum-canceling dual-coil response with full-frequency coverage. Tone shaping is handled by Ibanez Custom Electronics: a 3-band EQ with a 3-way Power Tap switch, allowing broad tonal adjustment and access to alternate coil or voicing options. Medium frets and a 24-fret layout extend upper-register access without compromising fret feel. The specified string gauge and factory tuning suit heavier rhythm work and down-tuned setups, though the instrument remains adaptable to lighter gauges if desired.
Overall, the setup and components lend themselves to players seeking a versatile instrument with reliable hardware, detailed tonal control, and a straightforward, serviceable playing surface.
