The Ibanez BTB1835 NDL Premium 5-String Electric Bass, finished in Natural Shadow Low Gloss, features premium-grade materials, neck-thru construction, and top quality components, all meticulously combined into a stunning pro-level instrument. The BTB1835 features a strong and stable 9pc Maple/Bubinga/Panga Panga neck with Graphite reinforcement rods; this superior design provides enhanced sustain and stability, as well as greater tonal clarity and attack. A Panga Panga fretboard produces tight lows and mid range, and strong bright attack in the high end, while stainless steel frets with Premium fret edge treatment provide long-lasting performance and durability. The BTB1835's MR5S bridge features adjustable saddles for variable string spacing (19mm +/- 1.5mm), allowing precise, fine-tuned spacing suitable for every bassist's needs. A stunning neck-through body design, with Bubinga top and back, and Ash wings, provides tight lows, edgy mids, and a pleasant brightness with rich sustain. A pair of Aguilar DCB pickups utilise a dual-ceramic bar design to capture all the detail and character of your tone. These pickups' uniform magnetic field ensures that no information is lost, making this a great pickup for dynamic playing styles. An Ibanez Custom Electronics 3-Band EQ gives you even greater control over your sound, via simple and straightforward EQ controls. The Boost and Cut for the Mid Control are each centred on slightly different frequencies, an innovation that delivers a preset range of the most favourable bass tones. An additional 3-way Mid frequency switch allow players to change the mid-tone between 250, 450, and 700 Hz. An EQ Bypass Switch allows you to switch from active to passive operation.
