Dial In Your Tone With Dynamix PJ Pickups
The Ibanez TMB400TA bass comes equipped with a Dynamix PJ pickup configuration, combining the best of both worlds. The Precision-style pickup in the neck position produces a solid, fundamental tone focused on low-end punch. Switch to the Jazz-style bridge pickup and you'll get more treble bite and midrange growl perfect for cutting through the mix. Blend the two pickups together, and you can shape your own signature bass sound. An Ibanez 2-band EQ provides intuitive tone-shaping control with passive tone circuitry, letting you boost lows or accentuate highs as needed. Whether you need a smooth, round vintage tone or an aggressive modern bass crunch, the TMB400TA offers exceptional tonal flexibility.
Roasted Maple Neck Enhances Playability
The TMB400TA bass features a roasted maple neck treated to increase stability and durability under changing conditions. The heat treatment also enhances the wood's resonance for added sustain and richness. Combined with its comfortable medium frets, the roasted maple neck offers smooth, fast playability ideal for complex bass lines. Graphite reinforcement rods provide excellent stability for precise intonation, while a rosewood fingerboard produces a focused midrange tone. The TMB400TA's neck profile gives you the speed you need, with a comfortable feel that helps reduce fatigue during long sessions.
Rock-Solid Tuning Stability With Fully Adjustable Bridge
No matter how hard you dig in, the TMB400TA bass stays rock solid and in tune thanks to its B10 bridge. The bridge is fully adjustable for precise intonation, with sturdy construction that prevents shifting over time. Combined with the Graph Tech TUSQ nut, the B10 bridge keeps your strings stable and resonant. Consistent tuning stability means you never have to second guess your bass on stage or in the studio. Simply dial in your perfect setup and trust that the TMB400TA will stay there.
