With the Ibanez BTB Bass Workshop , Ibanez shows that true boutique quality does not necessarily require a boutique budget. The 5-string Bass combines a full-length neck-thru construction with a stable 5-piece maple/walnut neck, which offers maximum tuning stability and long Sustain thanks to graphite reinforcement rods. The 37-35" multi-scale scale length ensures a tight low-end on the low strings with comfortable playability in the high registers. Visually, the combination of okoume/ash body wings with an elegant poplar burl top provides a grandiose look, while the T1 humbuckers together with the Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ electronics including switchable mid-frequency and bypass option cover an exceptionally wide sound spectrum from modern punch to warm vintage sounds. The instrument is rounded off by the MR5S bridge system with variable string spacing adjustment, high-quality Hardware and an included hardshell case. This makes the Ibanez Bass Workshop BTB805MS-FNL Florid Natural Low Gloss an uncompromising professional bass for modern playing styles, studio and stage!
