Ibanez BTB605MS Cerulean Aura Burst Matte

What we say:

At A Glance:

The Ibanez BTB605MS Cerulean Aura Burst Matte is a 5 string multi-scale bass with a gorgeous colour and many top features. The T1 pickups feature two separate, individually mounted coils resulting in a well balanced and powerful sound. With an excellent level of craft throughout, it has been well made and gives the player an outstanding 5 string instrument.

A secure MR5S bridge keeps everything functioning as it should while a panga panga fretboard with 24 medium stainless steel frets make for an easy time when playing. Certainly ideal for the metal player in need of big tones, this can also do jazz and blues due to the clarity and versatility on offer.

Features We Love:

Construction

Neck-through construction keeps the sustain to a very high level thanks to the 5 piece maple/walnut layering. The wing sections of the body are made from okoume and finished off in the glorious Cerulean Aura Burst Matte finish.

Stainless Steel Frets

Gracing the panga panga fingerboard are the 24 Medium stainless steel frets. Ready for a busy touring schedule or demanding studio tracking, stainless steel frets go the extra mile, feel great when bending, and give you that extra peace of mind.

Electronics

A pair of T1 pickups combine with Ibanez's highly powerful 3-Band EQ which features a variable mid-frequency control, putting a wide array of tones right at your fingertips. There's even an EQ bypass switch for passive operation, letting you bypass the circuit and utilise the treble control as a traditional passive tone control.

Highlights:

• All tonal possibilities and applications are covered
• Excellent construction and levels of craft
• Reliable and ready for a long life on the road
