Ibanez Bass Workshop BTB865SC 5-string Bass Guitar – Weathered Black Low Gloss
5pc Maple/Walnut neck with Graphite reinforcement rods
The 5pc Maple/Walnut neck provides tonal clarity and superior attack. The Graphite reinforcement rods provides massive sustain and excellent stability.
Rosewood fretboard
Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.
Ash top / Ash / Okoume wing body
The Ash top imbues this bass with an exotic appearance and the Ash/Okoume body provides superior attack, bright and solid sound with rich sustain.
Bartolini BH2 pickups
The Bartolini BH2 pickups provide a tight bottom-end, punchy mid-range, and smooth response. The dual-coil style configuration maximizes articulation and a long blade pole piece widens the magnetic field, providing balanced string-to-string pickup response.
Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ
The Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ is our latest refinement on the concept of simple, straightforward, no-nonsense EQ control. The Boost and Cut for the Mid Control are each centered on slightly different frequencies, an innovation that delivers a preset range of the most favorable bass tones.
MR5 bridge
The Mono-Rail V is the ultimate bridge for bass string isolation. Each bridge is independently and securely locked down to the body for maximum vibration transfer without interference.
3-way Mid frequency switch
The 3-way Mid frequency switch allow players to change the mid-tone between 250, 450, and 700 Hz.
A detachable Finger ramp is included for comfortable finger picking.
Neck-through construction
The neck-through construction contributes to massive sustain and smooth access to high fretboard positions.
