Having intuitive control over your core tone is imperative, and the BTB25TH5 grants it via Ibanez's Custom Electronics 3-band EQ. The dedicated Bass, Mid and Treble controls each use slightly different Mid frequencies, letting you hone in on the most flattering tonal range for your playing style. The Mid control also includes boost and cut parameters for additional flexibility. Whether you prefer an aggressive punch, airy openness or balanced neutrality, the BTB25TH5 puts inspiring bass tones at your fingertips.
Constructed for excellent stability and massive, unwavering sustain, the BTB25TH5's neck features a five-piece maple/walnut design reinforced with graphite. The rigid graphite rods enhance the neck's resilience against environmental changes, while the alternating maple and walnut strips provide gorgeous esthetics along with enhanced tone and attack. Thanks to its neck-through design, you'll also enjoy smooth access to even the highest frets.
The BTB25TH5 comes loaded with a pair of Nordstrand "Big Single" pickups, which pack the power of a meaty single coil into a space-friendly soap bar housing. Delivering forceful, articulate tone with characteristic single coil snap, these innovative pickups complement the BTB25TH5's sonic personality perfectly. Let your playing cut through the mix with aggressive authority or dial back the intensity for rhythmic support—either way, your notes will ring out with pristine definition.
Getting your ideal string spacing for comfort and intonation is effortless with the BTB25TH5's MR5S bridge. Its fully adjustable saddles provide +/- 1.5 mm of spacing adjustment so you can set up your strings exactly how you like them. The BTB25TH5 also comes equipped with a 3-way Mid Frequency switch, letting you choose between 250Hz, 450Hz and 700Hz to sculpt your mids to taste. Whether it's in the studio or on stage, you'll have total control over your tone.
