Attractive?

That mysterious, very unattractive bass highlighted here late last year, is the new Ibanez Grooveline bass. I don't think it'll win any accolades in the design department but the ergonomics are there. The body's offset design is a fusion of what I believe to be the RD & Affirma curves, both are extinct now. The designers' objective is for the Grooveline to epitomize balance so visual attraction takes a back seat here. The bridge is also fresh for an Ibanez bass- the Tight End unit; we've seen them before in the FR & RG1451, though.
