A bass that's capable of laying down grooves in just about any genre, the Ibanez BTB1405E not only gives you five-string range, but the tonewoods and components for a great playing experience.

Extended Neck for Tight Sound

The 35" scale of the BTB's neck adds a bit of tension on the strings, helping ensure your low-end notes sound clear and don't buzz along the frets. The 7-piece neck is crafted of maple, bubinga, and walnut, lending it an elegant striped pattern. It is set into the body and reinforced with graphite rods for enhanced stability and resonance. The neck is topped with a rosewood fretboard and the body's deep cutaways give you access all the way up the neck.

Solid Build to Handle Rumble

This BTB bass combines a maple top and a mahogany body for a crisp tone that is able to articulate its extended five-string range. The body also features tone-enhancing components like a Mono-Rail IV bridge, which not only uses locking saddles, but isolates each string in its own independent saddle to eliminate any vibration interference.

Clear Single-Coil Sound

TheThe BTB is outfitted with two Nordstrand Big Single 5 Pickups in the neck and bridge positions. These single-coil pickups respond well to slap playing, providing the bell-like clarity that funk and R&B players love. Rock players will appreciate the bridge pickup's ability to reach snarling tones when overdriven, making it easy for a bassist to cut through the mix when they need to.
