Overview

Inspiring multi-scale bass with small-shop quality.

The Ibanez BTB605MLM lets you take your playing to the next level with its impressive design geared for optimal sound, feel and versatility. This professional 5-string electric bass guitar leverages neck-through construction and a multi-scale layout to provide massive sustain and smooth access across the fingerboard. Meanwhile, its flexible preamp and pickup configuration unlocks a spectrum of highly adaptable tones perfect for the stage or studio.

Sculpt Your Ideal Sound With Neck-Through Construction

The BTB605MLM's neck-through design promotes phenomenal sustain, letting your notes ring out with clarity. Its 5-piece maple/walnut neck also enhances attack and definition for articulate bass lines. You'll power through fast riffs and complex chords smoothly, as the uninterrupted neck facilitates effortless shifts into higher registers. Graphite reinforcement rods provide rock-solid stability for consistent intonation and tuning stability over time.

Play Confidently Across the Fingerboard With a Multi-Scale Layout

Optimized for ergonomic comfort and intonation accuracy, the BTB605MLM features a 35"-34" multi-scale fingerboard. The fanning frets follow the natural angle of your hand, making it easier to play intricate lines across all five strings. You'll also enjoy optimized string tension, as the varying scale lengths are tailored to each string's gage. This enhances playability tremendously while keeping the BTB605MLM in tune.

Sculpt Your Tone With Customizable Active Electronics

The BTB605MLM lets you shape your sound with precision using its flexible preamp. Powerful T1 humbucking pickups capture your playing with excellent clarity and balance. A 3-band EQ provides customized tone-shaping, while a Mid Frequency switch lets you target key midrange frequencies for the perfect EQ curve. You can also bypass the preamp and use passive tone controls for an organic, uncompressed tone. Between its adaptable electronics and resonant construction, the BTB605MLM makes it easy to craft your signature bass voice.

Add Exotic Flair With a Flamed Maple Fingerboard

The BTB605MLM distinguishes itself esthetically with its flamed maple fingerboard. The eye-catching wood grain patterns give the bass an upscale, exotic look. It also feels extremely smooth and comfortable under your fingers during extended practice or live sets. Durable medium stainless steel frets provide excellent intonation and resist wear over time. Visually stunning and road-ready, the BTB605MLM is built to impress on all fronts.
