Unlike others BTB models, this 2018 Ibanez BTB747 7 String Bass features a sleek body shape with smooth contours and a curved bevel, creating an elegant feel and unique appearance. This stunning 7 string bass is crafted from a combination of ash and mahogany, with a walnut top, delivering a sweet and resonant tone with a firm low end. For added comfort and style, a double cutaway is also incorporated and provides flexibility across the whole fingerboard.
As well as an eye-catching choice of body woods, BTB747 also includes a 9-piece maple, panga panga and walnut neck-through design, delivering enhanced sustain and stability. A neck-through construction ensures that the neck will not warp or twist over time, and maintain a reliable tone.
The Ibanez BTB747 7 String Bass features a jatoba fingerboard, which is a more sustainable tonewood than the commonly used rosewood. Jatoba is very similar to ovangkol and koa in both looks and tone. This substitute tonewood adds a wonderful resonance to the overall tone, and provides a smooth platform for the left hand. A zero fret is also included and provides accurate intonation, along with minimal string height.
For a powerful bass tone, Ibanez BTB747 7 String Bass is equipped with a duo of Bartolini BH2 dual-coil pickups that deliver a warm, balanced response with a tight bottom end and a full midrange. Achieving the perfect tone is easy with the three-band EQ, while the three-way mid frequency switch offers a variety of output options.
Over the past 30 years, Ibanez have always been at the forefront of developing the right tools for Electric Guitar and Bass players, pushing the boundaries of music. For decades, Ibanez designers and luthiers have been the embodiment of this ideology, pushing their skills to the edge of imagination, consistently creating some of the most versatile and unique instruments ever. Although Ibanez guitars and basses have been made since 1908, it wasn't until the late 1980’s that they began to form an identity for themselves when artists such as Steve Vai and Frank Zappa began using their instruments. Now with a huge artist clientele across the globe Ibanez are a leading manufacturer of electric guitars and basses and a first choice for many dedicated musicians.
