Boutique Build Quality
The BTB1936 features a Curly Maple with Walnut stripes top & back, with an African Mahogany body that delivers superior tonal clarity and sound.
The sleek body has a curved bevel that helps create a more elegant feel.
Durable stainless frets offer bright tone, and the BTB1936 features a zero fret for accurate intonation and minimal string height.
The zero fret also helps the open strings sound like the fretted notes.
The deep cutaway of the lower horn allows effortless access to higher frets, whilst the 18th fret neck joint of the upper horn provides tonal sustain and neck stability.
Thru-Neck Construction
The BTB’s 35-inch through-neck is constructed with 7 pieces of Panga Panga and Purpleheart and features 2 Graphite rods inside the neck for added stability.
Moreover, the neck end adjustment allows you to adjust the neck easily.
The extended scale length helps create a clear sound and sufficient string tension for the lower strings while adding ringing sustain to the upper strings.
The BTB1936 comes strung with D’Addario NYXL strings which offer a large dynamic range and sensitive harmonic response.
Powerful Electronics
The Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ, EQ bypass switch, and 3-way midfrequency switch allow for precise tonal control (250 Hz, 450 Hz, and 700 Hz).
When the EQ bypass is activated, the treble-tone control knob works as a passive tone control for the instrument’s output.
Aguilar Pickups
The Aguilar DCB pickups provide well-developed overtones, singing sustain in the body and note decay.
The pickups dual ceramic bar magnets provide a dynamic and responsive attack.
The combination of the EQ and the Aguilar pickups promises superior tonal possibilities for any playing situation.
Premium-Hardware
The MR5S bridge allows for a wide intonation adjustment range, and each isolated bridge is securely locked down to the body for maximum vibration transfer without interference.
Other features include a Premium fret edge treatment, secure high-tech Neutrik locking output jack, Gotoh machine heads, and a gig bag.
