Description
Let us introduce you to the Ibanez ICB720FM-CBS Iceman Bass Guitar in Cosmic Blue Starburst.
The Ibanez ICB720FM-CBS takes the legendary Iceman silhouette and reimagines it as a sleek, modern 4-string bass. Finished in a stunning Cosmic Blue Starburst with a flamed Maple top, it’s built to stand out visually while delivering a powerful, flexible tone that can handle anything from tight, technical lines to huge, aggressive riffs. With premium Nordstrand pickups, a rock-solid 3-piece Maple neck and a fully adjustable MR5S bridge, this bass is designed for serious players who want both attitude and precision.
Iconic Iceman shape
The ICB720FM proudly inherits the classic Iceman body shape, with sweeping lines and a dramatic outline that has turned heads since the 1970s. This updated bass version keeps that unmistakable design while refining the ergonomics for comfort and balance on stage or in the studio.
Powerful Nordstrand Big Break pickups
Loaded with a pair of Nordstrand Big Break pickups, this bass delivers a full-bodied, muscular tone with an aggressive edge. Each pickup packs a meaty split coil into a soapbar housing, combining the punch and clarity of a single-coil with noiseless performance. Whether you’re playing fingerstyle, with a pick or slapping hard, the response stays articulate and defined.
Active 2-band EQ for wide-ranging tones
The Ibanez Custom Electronics 2-band EQ gives you instant access to a broad spectrum of sounds. With independent bass and treble controls plus master volume and pickup balancer, you can quickly dial in everything from tight, scooped modern tones to warm, vintage-inspired voices. It’s ideal for players who need one bass to cover multiple genres and settings.
Stable neck & adjustable MR5S bridge
A 3-piece Maple neck with a satin polyurethane finish offers strength, stability and a smooth, fast feel. Medium frets on a 12-inch radius bound Panga Panga fingerboard make for accurate intonation and comfortable playability across all 22 frets. The MR5S bridge provides solid anchoring and 19 mm string spacing, with adjustable saddles that allow you to fine-tune the spacing to suit your technique.
