Ready to deliver state of the art bass exploration and sonic supremacy, the Ibanez BTB Bass Workshop series delivers bold, adventurous takes on the electric bass guitar, and the BTB865MS multi scale 5-string provides exactly that: uncompromising, untraditional, and unforgettable bass experiences. This bass, with its extended range, multi scale neck, and Ibanez Custom electronics, excels at one-of-a-kind style and practicality, opening new avenues for low-end creativity.

Introduced in a striking double-cutaway silhouette with a Transparent White Flat finish, this BTB credits its exotic appearance to the ash top, while the body made of ash and okoume supplies rich sustain, a solid sound with thriving brightness, and an attack that makes sure no note goes unnoticed. The 5-piece maple/walnut neck-through construction leads to additional resonance and a smooth, seamless feel, while the neck's Graphite reinforcement rods provides excellent stability. Affixed to the neck is a bound panga panga fingerboard that exudes tight lows and snappy attack, housing the 35"-37" scale length that is segmented and fanned with 24 medium sized stainless steel frets.

Projecting the solid tone from the BTB are the T1 humbucker pickups found in the neck and bridge positions—a set of passive pickups that are suitable for many genres, producing a clear high-end, punchy mid-range, and a full-bodied, tight low-end. In addition to the tonality, this pickups are individually mounted for height dependent nuanced tone, with each pickup featuring rounded edges for comfort while playing, and the staggered, slightly offset positioningthat reflects the multi scale nature of the instrument. Ibanez utilizes their Custom electronics to dial in exciting tones with a wide array of controls—volume, balancer, boost/cut knobs for bass, mid, and treble—along with an EQ bypass and 3-way mid frequency switch. Truly, there are very few basses that harnesses so much variable tone than the BTB.

Secured in a transport ready hardshell case, the BTB865MS multi scale 5-string bass is equipped to be your new low-end, extended ranged companion.

From a Long Time Hard Sole Dress Shoe Wearer, These are a Must Have!
Size: 12, Color: Blue
I have been wearing hard sole dress shoes for decades and with the full COVID shift to dressing super casual in a professional work environment, I was in the market for some more casual let dressy shoes that were a heck of a lot more comfortable and flexible than my hard soles so I thought I would give this brand and style a try. Oh man, I'm in love. These give you that dressier look yet you can totally dress them down with jeans or cordouroys, so versatile. As I did with my hard soles, I inserted one of my Nike Air in soles and man, these are so comfortable I bought navy and brown! I usually wear these with thin dress socks and they go perfectly with any type of suit set, a no brainer purchase here. I'm a 12 and bought a 12, perfect fit, not to skinny, not to wide, just right. Bottom sole grip is impressive, never felt unstable, solid rubber sole here. I decided to lace them up so there are not tying and the tongue does slip down sometimes so with this feature, best to use a metal shoe horn, then it's super easy to slide them on, they seem to take a beating and remain clean too, I've definitely scuffed them up against many things and still no damage, it's crazy, must have a great finish. NOTE TO Note to MANUFACTURER/SELLER - You need to make a version in GRAY in this specific style and I will buy them instantly, and I assure you they will be incredibly popular! Really not sure why there isn't more colors in these like gray, shades of gray, maybe red, lighter blue and maybe some with different tones in standard colors. Casual dress shoe wearers are looking for new and exciting bold colors so this is the perfect shoe type to deliver on that.

Finally, a dress shoe that actually feels like a sneaker!
Size: 8.5, Color: Dark Brown
I was honestly super skeptical about buying shoes on Amazon, especially "dress sneakers." Usually, they either look incredibly cheap in person or they completely destroy your heels within an hour. I am so glad I took a chance on these Bruno Marcs. I commute to campus and take the bus almost every day, so I end up doing a ton of walking. I needed something that looked sharp and put-together, but I absolutely refused to sacrifice comfort for a long day on my feet. These completely hit the mark. Right out of the box, there was zero break-in period—no stiffness, no pinching, and no blisters. They are incredibly lightweight, and the material actually looks premium, not like that shiny, fake plastic you sometimes get at this price point. The traction on the bottom is surprisingly good too, which is a lifesaver when I'm rushing to catch my bus on rainy mornings. If you’re on the fence, just get them. It’s rare to find a shoe that balances looking professional with feeling exactly like your favorite weekend sneaker. Easily one of the best wardrobe purchases I've made in a while!

High quality, perfect color and very nice price!
Size: 14, Color: Brown, Size: 14, Color: Brown
I bought this shoes for my husband's Christmas present, so he didn't try yet. So far, the color is perfect! I feel like he can wear this shoes with different outfits, for the price it seems hight quality, it is not heavy at all. The shoe features a soft, comfortable lining and the sole is perfect because it is non-slip.

These fit very nicely, are comfortable, and work for my wide feet!
Size: 12 Wide, Color: Brown
Once I learned while shoe shopping in my youth that I needed wide-sized shoes, I wasn't able to easily choose from any shoes I saw in the store. I usually have to go find the wide widths and have to deal with the limited styles they have. Shopping online has been hit and miss, too. Sometimes, shoes are advertised as wide width, but end up still being too narrow. These shoes fit me just right. They were not too tight at the toes, gave good width at the arch, and the opening was large enough that I didn't have to undo every single lace just to get my foot in. They also look nice, and I'm sure will take a decent polish. Also, note that this does say it's an Oxford shoe, but it does have the open lacing and is more of a derby-style shoe. This also helps with sizing for my wide feet. If I didn't already have a pair of black shoes, I'd look at picking one of these up. My only reservation with these is that the soles are not dark-colored to complement a more formal style. I feel the white makes them a little more casual. The sole is also more transparent/opaque coloring at the heel and underneath, which you can kind of see-through, so keep that in mind. It's not fully clear, but is kind of transparent, which I was not expecting. I think it also shows where it picks up dirt as you wear it. Just more of a style cue one way or another. As a reference, I buy the 4E wide and Extra Wides in New Balance and Skechers. I also have a hard time getting any good fit in Nike shoes.
