"...don't buy this bass..."

Feature:
The sweepable mid-control is very cool, and the electronics are quiet.

Quality:
This bass didn't feel solid to me -- in fact, it felt rather flemsy.

Value:
For the tone that is produced, this bass should not be this expensive. The wider string spacing is good if you are beginner/intermediate getting your first 6er, but I would not recommend this bass to any serious player.

Support:
n/a -- I don't own it, so I wouldn't know.

Submitted: 8/17/2005

Style of Music: Whatever I get paid to play

About This Product!
Description
Docs
Like all Ibanez instruments, the BTB is made with the bass player in mind. With a thick, full sound and clear tone, the BTB Series lets your real bass sound be heard. Played by some of today's top bass players, when you hear one, you'll know why.

The BTB Series comes with a fuller body and neck, with more passive pickups for better quality tone and sustain. Also, BTB basses feature Neutrik locking jacks and Monorail II bridges so the strings are independent, and do not interfere with each other as they vibrate. If it's subtlety you're going for, the studio-quiet Vari-Mid 3B EQ allows you to modify and color your tones as much or as little as you want. And don't forget about the 18 volt circuitry that provides much greater headroom than found on standard active EQs.
