Seismic 5-string Subterranean Sonics Engineered to Enthrall
With its BTB Standard BTB945, Ibanez has crafted a no-holds-barred baron of basses that blends a hexad of high-performance tonewoods with a suite of sonic sculpting capabilities worthy of bedroom-wall wide-eyed wondering. Its comfortably contoured poplar burl-topped body is teeming with character and even more tone-crafting possibilities, and once it’s in your hands, you’ll be filled with low-end traversing tenacity that’s only multiplied by the dyad of Ibanez and Nordstrand electronics. A quick overview reveals a tonewood assemblage fully endorsed by AJ’s Music & The Music Man Guitar Workshop: a layered ash-over-okoume wing design beneath the poplar burl top, with a solid 5-piece maple and walnut neck running the full length of the instrument that is topped with a shimmering rosewood fretboard. Add a 5-piece Mono-rail V bridge to the mix, and you have sustain for days with ideal string-to-string isolation. When you add in the onboard 3-band active EQ, you’ll have no trouble crafting the bass tones you love.
Nordstrand-fueled low-frequency fury
Considering the bass’s constellation of tonewoods, Ibanez wisely chose a Nordstrand suite of circuitry capable of capturing its dimensional depths. A bombastic brace of Big Single soapbar single-coil pickups arm you with an unassailable armature of Alnico V-fueled ferocity, blending brawling brightness fuzz-friendly fervor into a pliable, punchy powerhouse pairing. What’s more, a custom-crafted configuration of Ibanez electronics comprising a 3-band EQ, per-band control knobs, and a dedicated Balancer is supplemented by an EQ bypass and a 3-way mid-frequency switch, allowing you to sweep mids and hone tones with unrivaled detail and dynamism.
Enduring sustain and resounding neck-through resonance
You can trace the history of the neck-through design all the way back to Les Paul’s famous 1941 “The Log” solidbody guitar prototype or to Rickenbacker, who gave us the modern version in 1956. Either way, generations of innovators and top-tier manufacturers have relied on neck-through designs for superior sustain. Pick up an Ibanez BTB Standard BTB945, and you’ll experience everything neck-through construction has to offer, with full-spectrum sonics felt vibrating clearly through its ultra-stable 5-piece maple and walnut neck, right down to the strap peg. The extended sustain doesn’t just add body to your tone, it provides greater tonal balance that you’ll hear in every note you play. What’s more, the increased dimensional stability and harmonic depth of its 5-piece construction are augmented by graphite-reinforcing neck rods, reducing weight and maximizing playability, with greater resistance to twisting and warping.
