The EHB1005F is a five string, fretless EHB series solid body electric bass model introduced by Ibanez for 2023. It is produced in Indonesia as part of the Ibanez Bass Workshop line.
The EHB design features a chambered body double cutaway body shape with a prominent upper horn and a deep lower scoop. The chambered body has an ergonomic design with a slanted back to enable the player to maintain a similar playing position whether seated or standing.
The EHB1005F features a headless design with a chambered American basswood body bolted to a graphite reinforced roasted maple and walnut neck with a Richlite fingerboard with no frets and luminescent side dots. Components include individual Monorail V HS bridges with adjustable string spacing, a pair of Bartolini BH2 passive pickups, a detachable finger ramp, a Vari-mid 3-band EQ with EQ bypass switch, a locking Neutrik output jack and Schaller S-Lock strap pins.
There are short lines (sidelines) on the upper edge of the fingerboard to mark the positions where the frets would be on a fretted instrument.
