★ The "BTB—Boutique Bass" model—Ibanez’s flagship bass!
Now available at a special new-item price—only one in stock!!

~The “BTB-Boutique Bass” series, weaving a new chapter in Ibanez’s bass history~
Combining high-end specs with expressive capabilities that inspire the player’s creativity—that’s the “Ibanez” “BTB-Boutique Bass,” one of “Ibanez”’s iconic, historic bass models, just like the SR series.
In 2017, while retaining its excellent playability and sustain, “Ibanez” revamped the BTB bass by incorporating new features.
Packed with attractive features—including stainless steel frets, a zero fret, and a Bartolini® BH2 pickup—the BTB745 and BTB746 promise a rich tone.

◆Features
・MR5S bridge
It features the MR5S (Monorail) bridge, equipped with an individual string pitch adjustment mechanism.
Each string has its own independent bridge, transmitting string vibration directly to the body.
Additionally, the saddles can be moved ±1.5 mm left and right, allowing you to freely adjust the spacing between strings (string spacing) within the adjustable range.
This allows for fine-tuning to suit your playing style.

・Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-band EQ with Mid Frequency Switch
This equalizer produces a wide-range, low-noise active sound. (Powered by a 006P alkaline battery)
By flipping the switch, you can set the mid-frequency band—the core of the bass sound—to 250 Hz, 450 Hz, or 700 Hz.

・Bartolini BH2 pickups
Equipped with Bartolini BH2 pickups, which feature a tight low end, a rich midrange, and a well-balanced, warm response.
