Ibanez Tim Henson Signature Electric Guitar, Metallic Mauve w/Gig Bag

Found at the absolute cutting edge of modern guitar innovation and virtuosity, the Ibanez Tim Henson Signature TOD10 arrives as a love letter to the fan of the ever-evolving face of rock music. Assembled to equip a player with the tools needed to act as sculptor of the proverbial marble of modern guitar music, this Ibanez piece touches down to excite and innovate.

The mindful, internet-dwelling guitarist of today is sure to know something of Tim Henson. As the famed guitarist of the progressive rock band Polyphia, Henson has shaped a space for himself among the pantheon of modern guitar masters by way of his virtuosic playing and striking aesthetics. This is not to mention his trendsetting form of melodic riffing that has since taken modern music trends – and internet video feeds at large – by storm. Henson, veritably a “modern” guitarist in every sense of the word, traditionally looks to Ibanez guitars for his form of playing. With this signature model, Henson’s view on guitar is sure to come alive in one’s own hands.

This Tim Henson signature Ibanez comes together with a number of unique materials and appointments to result in a truly fascinating and musical instrument. The double cutaway body of this TOD10 is formed from American basswood and is matched with a roasted maple neck. Together, these woods form the basis of the body for a guitar that slips easily under the arm and smoothly across the palm. This guitar’s roasted maple is shaped in an AZ Oval C profile for inspiring quick trips across the full scale length. An ebony fingerboard joins in on this equation and is punctuated by twenty-four Jumbo stainless-steel frets. With the integration of this fingerboard and assortment of frets, Henson’s melodic surfing of scales can truly come to life for players seeking a similar form of riffage.

Sonically, this guitar summons a spectrum of sounds through the utilization of two Fishman Fluence Tim Henson Signature Series Active/Alnico (H) pickups. This pair of humbuckers is noteworthy due to its integration of a Fishman Fluence Voicing switch, accessible via a push/pull pot on the tone knob. With this switch, players can expand the tonal landscape this signature model is capable of for accessing exciting frontiers for their playing. Further additions to this guitar enhance playability including a Graph Tech nut, a Gotoh T1502 tremolo bridge and an ultra-modern 12.0079” fingerboard radius. Truly, this TOD10 is a model for players seeking to push melodic boundaries and reach new highs all their own.

For the modern-minded player, this Tim Henson signature is designed for speed, melody and excitement. Carrying on in Ibanez’s legacy of reinventing standards and uncovering new musical discoveries, the TOD10 captures the moment before it’s gone.
