Description
Sound & Tone
The extended 37" low B and neck-through build give this five-string a tight, defined bottom end with long sustain, so low notes stay articulate rather than turning muddy. The dual T1 humbuckers, 3-band EQ and mid-sweep cover a wide range from clean and transparent to thick and aggressive, while the stainless steel frets and Panga Panga fingerboard add a crisp attack. It suits progressive rock and metal, fusion, and modern session work where extended-range clarity and fast, precise fingerstyle or slap lines matter.
Ibanez BTB805MS Multiscale Bass in Trans Gray Flat
The BTB805MS is built for bassists who need articulate low-end punch and bulletproof intonation across all five strings. This is a workhorse five-string that holds its own on any stage.
Construction & Tone
Neck-through construction with a poplar burl top on ash and okoume wings provides the rigidity and sustain you need for cutting through a live mix, while the graphite-reinforced maple and walnut neck stays put through venue temperature swings. The T1 Humbucker pickups paired with a 3-band EQ, mid-frequency sweep switch, and bypass function let you dial in anything from transparent articulation to aggressive bite—the locking Neutrik stereo output jack ensures your signal stays locked in no matter how much the bass moves on stage.
Playability & Hardware
The Panga Panga fingerboard with abalone dot inlays is smooth and road-ready, while 24 medium stainless steel frets handle slap, picks, fingers, and everything in between. The MR5S bridge with 18mm string spacing keeps everything stable across the multiscale geometry, and the 47mm plastic nut is sized right for a five-string. Factory-gauged strings (.045–.130MS) are optimized for standard tuning (G–D–A–E–B).
