At AJ’s Music & The Music Man, we’ve seen many of the finest instruments on the market today, and few basses can compare with the Ibanez Premium BTB1835 5-string bass. The Premium BTB1835 bass delivers monster tone backed by equally impressive sustain and articulation. The 9-piece neck is graphite reinforced for maximum stability, with Gotoh tuners for tuning precision and a Mono-rail V bridge for amazing note articulation and sustain. A pair of premium Aguilar DCB dual-ceramic-magnet pickups plus a powerful 3-band EQ complete the Ibanez Premium BTB1835 bass, providing eminent tone to match its supreme playability.
There are many great reasons world-class bass players swear by Aguilar DCB bass pickups, found in the Ibanez Premium BTB1835 bass. These dual-ceramic-magnet pickups give your Premium BTB1835 an extended range of tonal versatility, offering a fine balance of responsive attack, smooth sustain, and complex harmonics. And you’ll be impressed by the extended tone-shaping options the 3-band EQ delivers. There’s also a 3-mode midrange switch, which allows you to sculpt your overtones to fit any musical genre or playing style.
Ibanez specified their excellent Mono-rail V bridge for the Premium BTB1835. Unlike single-body bridges, each Mono-rail saddle is completely separate from the others. This does two things for you. First, since they aren’t connected, the saddles create minimal sympathetic vibration. This prevents unused strings from ringing. Second, each saddle is double anchored, allowing energy to transfer efficiently between the string and the body. As a result, bassists here at AJ’s Music & The Music Man are raving about the Premium BTB1835’s astonishing clarity and sustain.
Ibanez began its life in 1908 as the Hoshino Gakki company in Nagoya, Japan. However, the company didn’t get into the guitar business until 1929, when they started importing Salvador Ibanez guitars from Spain. In 1935, Hoshino Gakki began building Spanish acoustic guitars under the “Ibanez Salvador” name, which was later shortened to “Ibanez.” Although Ibanez began manufacturing electric guitars in 1957, the company was relatively unknown in the West until the 1960s, when they started producing guitars based on American designs. By the late 1970s, Ibanez stopped producing derivative instruments and began manufacturing the innovative original guitar and bass designs that the company is now known for. Ibanez is also famous for their effect pedals (most notably the Tube Screamer) and guitar amplifiers.
