Three all-new left-handed versions of Ibanez's award-winning SR500BM Soundgear bass will debut at the 2007 NAMM Summer conference in Austin. Included with the 4-string and 5-string versions is the SR506BML, the first left-handed 6-string bass ever offered by Ibanez in the United States.

All three basses feature comfortably contoured mahogany bodies fitted with Bartolini MK1 pickups and, of course, the slender-yet-strong Ibanez Soundgear neck prized by bassists for its fast and easy playability.

The SR500BML 4-string lists for $799.99. The SR505BML 5-string lists for $839.99. The SR506 6-string lists for $906.65.
