Ibanez BTB470 IPT 4 String Bass Guitar

Buy at www.musicianscart.com Ibanez BTB series .The concepts behind boutique basses are often the justification for making them extremely expensive.With the advent of the BTB however, Ibanez decided that these same concepts of well-selected body materials, 35″ neck scale, and deep cutaways could be applied to an instrument that anyone could afford. All the BTBs feature neck-thru construction and deeper cutaways for enhanced playability and balance. This year, new BTB 700DXs, featuring EMG pickups, join the lineup (other models feature Bartolini MK2 pickups with EQ).

Description of the Ibanez BTB470 IPT

For those who prefer a bass that has a more classic feel to it, the ARTB is a 70s style rock machine. The combination of the mahogany body, the 30.3″ short scale length and set neck create a warm tone that recreates the days of arena rock. The short scale neck is also comfortable for smaller hands.

Bartolini MK2 Pickups and EQ

The MK2 pickups are quad coil designs. The Neck pickup tone is very deep and the Bridge pickup tone is bright, just like the US made pickups. They are also balanced for output so that the deep tone Neck pickup does not overpower the Bridge pickup. The MK2 electronics compliments and enhances their wide tonal range.
