Description
Big Horns. Big lines. Big Tone.
The BTB470 is a serious piece of early-2000s Ibanez design, combining an unmistakably modern look with the kind of substantial, player-focused construction that made the BTB series stand out. Finished in Pearl White, this 2007 example has plenty of visual presence, with its elongated body lines, deep contours and distinctive hardware giving it a properly contemporary feel.
It remains in great used condition, with early fret wear consistent with regular playing and a few minor nicks and impressions across the body. There are no large dings or significant damages, while some tarnish has developed across the hardware over the years. Overall, it presents very well for a bass of its age, retaining plenty of its original character.
The BTB470 is a particularly appealing choice for players looking beyond the usual traditional bass designs. Its extended, sculpted body and modern styling give it a purposeful appearance, while the BTB platform was designed with versatility and playability firmly in mind.
A great opportunity to pick up a well-preserved example of Ibanez’s distinctive BTB approach from 2007, with just enough honest wear to show that it’s a bass that begs to be played.
