Ibanez BTB25TH6-SLM Silver Blizzard Matte
In 1999, a new model called Boutique Bass was released.
The Ibanez BTB was developed with the concept of making the 5th string (low-B string) sound pleasant with a 35-inch extra long scale, and later became popular with artists in the heavy and loud genres in particular. .
In 2024, 25 years after its birth, we will release an anniversary model that embodies BTB's current location.
-5pc maple & walnut neck (equipped with graphite reinforcement rod)
A 5pc neck that combines maple wood and hard walnut wood with a clear sound image and rich attack. Graphite rods inside the neck enhance rigidity.
The neck back is colored in the same color as the body and has a matte finish.
-Neck-through construction body, 35 inch extra long scale
The long sustain and rich resonance provided by the neck-through structure, and the seamless playing feel of the neck back are arguably the BTB's greatest features.
In addition, the scale is 35 inches, which is a characteristic of BTB, ensuring a solid sound even with the thicker gauge bass strings.
-Unique SilverBlizzardMatte finish
Both the front and back of the body are finished with a special coating (wrap finish). It has a unique finish, no two are the same.
-Rosewood fingerboard (w medium stainless steel frets)
We use rosewood, which is the most popular material for fingerboards and is known for its well-balanced sound.
The frets are stainless steel frets that are characterized by bright sound quality and high durability.
-Nordstrand BigSingle magnetic pickup
This pickup has a clear tone unique to single coils and a strong aggressiveness, giving it a character that makes its presence felt without being overshadowed by the band ensemble.
This is why it is widely supported by bassists in the heavy loud genre, which tends to have a large number of notes.
-MR5S Bridge
The MR5S (monorail) bridge is equipped with a string pitch adjustment mechanism. Each string has an independent bridge, which transmits string vibrations directly to the body.
In addition, the saddle can be moved 1.5mm left and right, and the space between the strings (interstring pitch) can be adjusted arbitrarily within the range of movement.
