Ibanez BTB805MS-TGF

A late review, i love this bass. Actually i wanted a fan fret bass that isnt that "djenty" as Dingwall. Its phenomenal.
The only problem i found is that the neck is a bit more sensitive than expected when touring. It needed daily adjustments.
That's something classic for multiscale basses, but i feel its a bit too sensitive at tempratures changes.

It's a pain to find long life strings for this one, got the new Daddario XSB45130SL, extra ong scale yet the B and E string fall short to the nut. My yamaha trbx505 has fretbuzz, and so does this one that is 2x more expensive. Thats a big BIG negative. Other than that the build is good, nice pattern, i like the bridge. The pickups could be better, i dont like the pickup blend, it would be better if it had a guitar style selector, you can make that change yourself but its a hassle. Has a bunch of Mids. It's a budget Dingwall. But if you want a Dingwall sound, buy a Dingwall.

It's a good instrument, sounds good, feels good. Can't complain about the sound or features, and it also looks good.

But the QA was a miss. Majority of the frets on both sides are quite sharp to the point that I can't ignore I'll have to take it to a luthier to file them down. No idea whether it's only this one bass or if it's a common issue of this lineup. In any case, it's an extra expense I'd rather not have since the bass itself already isn't cheap.

Unfortunately, the cable connection broke after 3 days, and I am very disappointed with the poor quality of this bass.
