Ibanez Signature THBB10 Tim Henson Black

What we say:

At A Glance

The Ibanez Signature THBB10 Tim Henson in Black is an astounding guitar from the guitarist and founding member of Polyphia. Known for his unique style of playing that includes elements of Metal, Prog, and Math-Rock, Henson needed a guitar that would allow each of these styles to be easily performed and also sound equally as good. The THBB10 does exactly that. The signature DiMarzio Notorious pickups sound great when playing heavy Djent-style riffs but also when fingerpicking and tapping melodic passages with a sparkling clean sound. Crafted to the usual high standards that you'd expect from Ibanez, this pro-level guitar is a real beauty.

Features We Love:

Roasted Maple Neck/Fingerboard

Not only does this look gorgeous, especially with the acrylic and abalone block inlays, but it does wonders for durability and stability. As moisture has been removed during the roasting process, it can withstand humidity changes much better, making it an excellent choice for touring musicians such as Tim Henson.

DiMarzio Notorious Pickups

Armed with an HSS set of DiMarzio Notorious pickups, these Tim Henson signature pickups have been voiced to suit his needs. They have a very focused sound with enough brightness to cut through a mix with detail but without sounding harsh. The Minibucker in the bridge has a moderate output so that it pairs very well with the two single coils.

Dependable Hardware

The THBB10 is armed with a selection of impressive hardware components. Featuring Gotoh MG-T locking tuners and a Gotoh bridge, stainless steel frets and Luminescent side dot inlays, this is a guitar that can go the distance.
