{"product_id":"ibanez-btb946-col-cosmic-blue-low-gloss-403794","title":"BTB946-COL Cosmic Blue Low Gloss","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA BTB Designed for Modern Playing in the Ibanez Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BTB946 embodies the BTB spirit: a long-scale, stable, and detailed bass designed for bassists seeking tight response, solid low end, and ergonomics suited for technical playing. Its 5-piece maple\/walnut neck reinforced with graphite and neck-through construction aim for exemplary consistency, ideal both in the studio and on stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Is the BTB946 For?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 6-string bass is particularly suitable for \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to advanced\u003c\/strong\u003e players who want to explore chords, extended lines, and modern techniques (fingerstyle, articulate slap, tapping). Its versatility makes it relevant in \u003cstrong\u003emetal\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efusion\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emodern rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003egospel\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003epop\u003c\/strong\u003e, whenever a present low end and clear mids are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe combination of a \u003cstrong\u003epoplar burl top\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003eokoumé\/ash wing body\u003c\/strong\u003e promotes a balance between attack, definition, and sustain, with great projection and a solid foundation. The \u003cstrong\u003eNordstrand Big Single\u003c\/strong\u003e pickups provide a meaty and aggressive texture while retaining the precision of a single coil: plenty of midrange presence and a clear attack, ideal for cutting through a dense mix. The \u003cstrong\u003e3-band equalizer\u003c\/strong\u003e expands the tonal palette (from massive lows to sharper highs), while the \u003cstrong\u003ebypass\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003epassive tone control on the treble potentiometer\u003c\/strong\u003e facilitate character changes during play. The \u003cstrong\u003e3-way mid-frequency selector\u003c\/strong\u003e helps dial in the bass exactly where you need it, depending on style and amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecommended Compatible Accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor identical replacement, the BTB946 comes with \u003cstrong\u003eD'Addario NYXL32130SL strings\u003c\/strong\u003e in gauges \u003cstrong\u003e.032\/.045\/.065\/.080\/.100\/.130\u003c\/strong\u003e.
