The concepts behind boutique basses are often the justification for making them extremely expensive. With the advent of the BTB however, Ibanez decided that these same concepts of well-selected body materials, 35” neck scale, and deep cutaways could be applied to an instrument that anyone could afford. All the BTB basses feature neck-thru construction and deeper cutaways for enhanced playability and balance.
Bartolini® MK-2 3-band EQ and Neutrik® locking output jack.
Bartolini® MK-2 pickups exclusively designed for BTB series basses.
5-pc Maple/Bubinga thru-neck.

Comments about Ibanez BTB575 5-String Electric Bass Guitar:
I figured i would wait a few months to make a review of this. Now that the honeymooon phase is over, i think i can make an accurate review of this bass.
First off, the Bartolini system is one of the most user friendly i've played so far. The bass/mids/treble/pickup-selector knobs all click when at the center position, which really helps when you want an even tone.
One problem i had with the electrical system is switching out the batteries. I came very close to severing the wires trying to remove the battery. Also, you have to use a screwdriver to remove the battery cover. If you don't leave the bass plugged up for days at a time this won't really be a problem.
The hardware does its job, nothing more. This is my first bass to use individual bridges per string, but I think I like them. There's not that much difference, audibly IMO.
The wood used isn't anything special. The bass is heavily drenched in gloss, but it doesn't exactly feel cheap. It resonates just as well as many other basses in this price range.
One thing to keep in mind, the string width is much wider than the SR series five strings. It helps when you're practicing but I would not want that when playing live.
In my honest opinion, I think this a good bass, and it's not a bad investment. Keep in mind that the newer versions of this bass have even further upgraded electronics. I got this bass at my local shop at clearance price to make room for more inventory.
I hope this helps!
