Ibanez spec’d a pair of these aggressive-sounding single-coil monsters for the 25th-anniversary BTB 6-string. In addition, you have the powerful sound-shaping capabilities of Ibanez’s custom 3-band EQ, which gives you control over boost/cut for bass, mid, and high frequencies, plus a mid-frequency switch to fine-tune your midrange. Along with the master volume and pickup blend controls, this instrument’s superb electronics let you quickly dial the perfect tone for any occasion. Fingers, thumb, or pick — the 25th-anniversary BTB Standard’s electronics have you covered.Neck-through design ensures exceptional sustain Descended from the upright bass, electric bass guitars traditionally sported four strings. Then, along came extended-range basses with five and six strings. Adding more strings makes the neck contend with higher tension that can lead to warping. The 25th-anniversary BTB solves that issue with its 5-piece maple/walnut through neck. The multi-piece, graphite-reinforced, neck-through design guarantees the neck’s stability. Tuning machines, the nut, pickups, and the bridge are connected directly to the neck, ensuring optimal vibrational transfer and optimized sustain. Thus, the neck comprises, effectively, the entire instrument: the sleekly sculpted body wings are only affixed for playing comfort (and killer looks). Pick up an Ibanez 25th-anniversary BTB, and you’ll experience everything neck-through construction has to offer.It’s all in the details Ibanez’s obsessive attention to detail has made the company a global guitar and bass powerhouse. That same detail-oriented construction is one of the many things that helped the 25th-anniversary BTB make such a splash at Sweetwater. It comes with stainless steel frets that will last through years of hard touring. The zero fret lets the bass achieve exceptionally low action for silky-smooth playability. What’s more, the MR5S bridge/tailpiece enables you to customize the string spacing to fit your evolving needs as a player. And like all Ibanez basses, the 25th-anniversary BTB 6-string includes high-quality tuning machines for rock-solid tuning stability. Add it all up, and you’ve got a boutique-grade instrument. The Ibanez 25th-anniversary BTB Standard 6-string electric bass has what it takes to propel you to the top of your game.Ibanez 25th-anniversary BTB Standard 6-string Electric Bass Features: Ultra-stable 5-piece maple/walnut through neck with graphite reinforcement rods, satin polyurethane finish Sleekly sculpted okoume body wings for playing comfort and killer looks Rosewood fingerboard with 24 (+zero fret) medium stainless steel frets 2 Nordstrand Big Single pickups Active electronics with Volume, Balance, Bass, Middle, and Treble controls plus 3-way Mid-frequency switch MR5S bridge/tailpiece with adjustable string spacing Ibanez tuning machines SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape BTB Standard 25th-anniversary Color Silver Blizzard Body Material Okoume (wings) Body Finish Satin Polyurethane Neck Material 5-piece Maple/Walnut Neck Shape BTB6 Neck Joint Neck-through Radius 37.4" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay White rectangle Number of Frets 24 (zero fret), Medium, Stainless Steel Scale Length 35" Nut Width 2.12" Nut Material Plastic Bridge/Tailpiece Ibanez MR5S Tuners Ibanez machine heads Neck Pickup Nordstrand Big Single Single-coil Bridge Pickup Nordstrand Big Single Single-coil Controls 1 x volume, 1 x balancer, 1 x bass, 1 x middle, 1 x treble, 3-way mini-switch (mid freq) Strings .032-.130 Case/Gig Bag Sold Separately RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
