Ibanez BTB Iron Label 5-String Bass BTB625EXBKF
The Ibanez BTB625EX is a modern 5-string bass built for players who want extended range, clarity, and a solid, stable feel across the entire neck. With its neck-through construction and active electronics, it delivers a consistent response and strong articulation suited for a wide range of styles.
Constructed with an okoume body and a 5-piece maple and walnut neck-through design, this bass offers excellent sustain and a balanced tonal foundation. The neck-through build gives it a smooth, even response from low B to high G while also providing easy access across all 24 frets.
The ebonol fretboard paired with medium stainless steel frets provides a smooth, durable playing surface with a fast feel. The addition of a zero fret helps maintain consistent tone and string height across all notes.
Equipped with Bartolini BH2 pickups, this bass delivers a clear and focused voice with tight low end and defined mids. The Ibanez custom 3-band EQ with a 3-way mid frequency switch allows for precise tonal shaping, making it easy to dial in everything from punchy, modern tones to more balanced, full-range sounds.
Additional features include the MR5 bridge with 19mm string spacing for comfortable fingerstyle and slap techniques, along with black hardware for a clean, modern look.
The BTB625EX is a versatile, performance-ready instrument designed for players who need extended range, clarity, and control in a reliable platform.
