The Ibanez BTB605MLM is part of the longrunning BTB series, a line built for players who want massive sustain, premium ergonomics and a modern, boutiquestyle feel without the boutique price tag. This model takes things even further with a multiscale design, neckthrough construction, and a feature set that's clearly aimed at serious bassists who need clarity, punch and articulation across all five strings.

The body uses okoume wings attached to a 5piece maple/walnut neckthrough core, reinforced with graphite rods for rocksolid stability. The extended scale length, 35" on the bass side down to 34" on the treble side, tightens the low B while keeping the higher strings comfortable and familiar. It's a beautifully balanced instrument that feels natural whether you're playing fingerstyle, pick or modern technical styles.

A flamed maple fretboard with abalone dot inlays adds a touch of elegance, while the medium stainless steel frets (plus a zero fret) ensure longterm durability and smooth, consistent tone across the entire neck.

Electronics come courtesy of the new Ibanez T1 passive pickups, designed for wide dynamic range and excellent note separation. They're paired with the Ibanez Custom Electronics 3band EQ, complete with an EQ bypass switch and a 3way midfrequency selector, giving you a huge amount of tonal control. Whether you want deep, rounded lows or aggressive midforward punch, the BTB605MLM can get you there quickly.

Hardware is toptier throughout, including the MR5S bridge with 19mm string spacing, offering precise intonation and rocksolid tuning stability. Gold hardware completes the look, giving the bass a clean, modern aesthetic that suits its Pearl White Matte finish.
