The GSR320 is a Soundgear series solid body electric bass model introduced by Ibanez for 2006. It was also sold packaged with an accessory kit as the GSR320A. It is produced in China as part of the entry level GIO line.

The GSR320 features a double-cutaway basswood body bolted to a maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with white dot position markers. Components include a pair of Ibanez passive Dynamix jazz pickups, a B10 bridge with 19mm string spacing, a plastic nut, and Ibanez tuning machines.

For 2014 the body material was changed to poplar. For 2018 the rosewood fingerboard was replaced with treated New Zealand pine. For 2019 the fretboard material was either treated New Zealand pine or purpleheart. For 2020 the fretboard was treated New Zealand pine. For 2021 the fretboard material was changed to purpleheart. For 2022 the body material was changed to okoume.

The GSR325 is a five string version. The GSR320BW and GSR320SW are similar models with art grain exotic wood tops.

The GSR320 was discontinued after 2021 from all markets except China.
