Ibanez BTB845SC Bass Workshop, 5 String, Natural Low Gloss Overview

New for 2017, the Ibanez BTB845SC is the latest addition to the Ibanez Bass Workshop line, now featuring a redesigned body to follow Ibanez’s 2017 upgrades. The BTB series has been greatly improved with its upgraded features and high-end bass appointments. 

The sleek new body now has a curved bevel that helps create a more elegant line and feel, with beautiful figuring, swirls and darker pockets of Poplar Burl top. The select Mahogany body gives a warm tone with rich resonance and sustain. The stainless frets contribute to high durability and an extra bright tone, and the zero fret provides accurate intonation and minimal string height, adding to the precision of the instrument. The zero fret also helps open string sounds to be the same as other frets. 
The body styling of the BTB845SC features an extended 12th - 24th fret Single-Cut top horn, which improves sustain and stability due to the maximum contact of the body and neck. The back features deep contours which are designed to mould to the players body and provide extremely comfortable playability

The bridge and the preamp have also been upgraded. The Mono-Rail V Bridge assembly allows for a wide intonation adjustment range, and each isolated bridge works for tone transfer without cross-string interference. The preamp comes in the form of the Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ, which has a 3-way mid-frequency switch allowing for precise tonal control (250 Hz, 450 Hz, and 700 Hz). The EQ is complimented by two Bartolini® BH2 dual-coil pickups which offer fantastic deep lows, Crisp clear Highs and a full mid-range. Add in the factory fitted D’Addario® NYXL strings and you have a bass ready to take on any session or performance!
