Ibanez BTB1825 Review and Demo

Check out this boutique style Ibanez. Yes, things were crashing around in my basement went paying this bass.
SPECIAL NOTE: my friend Steve Lane lent me this bass to review. Shortly after returning it to him, his house in Central Massachusetts, was broken into and a number of instruments, including this one, were stolen. If anyone has any information, please let me know!

I would love to have that bass. Ibanez is always high quality. Gorgeous!

[@KPJohnson]

This one really was top notch. One of the nicest basses I’ve ever played.

[@LowEndLobster]

NICE! Been curious about these. I really like the look of the upgraded 1835 and the new multiscale BTBs.

[@KPJohnson]

Yeah, this is a very cool bass. So nice to play. The multi scale BTBs are a nice surprise. I've often said I'd like to see Ibanez do those instead of the SR series and now, I got my wish. Very Dingwall like.

I've been eyeing the 6 version for a while.. I really like the Bubinga/ash combo. Ive never been a huge fan of the eq setup on previous models but Ibanez has nailed it with the neck and body woods on this bass. Been looking at a lot of 6s and for $2k it really is a very fair price for what yaaa get. Not a lot of talk about this instrument. Planning on getting it soon! Thx for the demo bud👍

[@KPJohnson]

You’re welcome! It is a fine instrument.

BouTique Bass👍🏽

Sounds pretty good, but the fact that *the sound keeps distorting* makes it difficult to form an opinion about the bass. I wish you would record this again while _keeping an eye on the recording levels..._ (Sorry for complaining. You seem like a nice guy. Hope you take this as "constructive criticism" and not as a "diss" of any kind...)

[@KPJohnson]

Noted. Unfortunately this bass can’t be redone as it was stolen. I have made a better effort to keep the levels in check in my videos since then. This video was done 18 months ago.

I was told that it stands for BoutiqueBass.

Hey I have a question you said it has passive mode also, so if the battery runs out, can you use it without 9v battery? Or it simply stops working? Thanks

[@KPJohnson]

Passive mode works without the battery. So you can use it as a tonal option or a backup if the battery dies.
