    TI Jazz Flats on an Ibby Volo

    I have a set of TI Jazz flats on my ABG (34" neck), but the ABG is a finicky bass that I don't use very much any more. I'm thinking of swapping the flats onto my Ibby Volo (33" neck). Does anyone have any experience along these lines or informed suggestions to offer before I spend an afternoon...

    Ibanez BTB33 Volo Static/Buzz

    I have a stock Ibanez BTB33 Volo bass. It's been fine for years. Picked it up the other day after sitting unplayed for a while and got a nasty noise. Hard to describe. It's somewhere between a mid frequency buzz and static. Almost like the cord wasn't pushed in all the way. Here are some...

    NBD: BTB33 EADGC

    It's kind of a niche instrument but could be a niche that suits me. I believe these are being discontinued by Ibanez. BTB33 is a 5-string 33" scale bass tuned E-C. Bartolini pickups. The extra high string makes more chordal playing possible, useful if you want to be able to, say, play some jazz...

    Ibanez BTB33 Volo discontinued... alternatives?

    Hi everyone! I just had a bad luck... I had been saving up to buy the BTB33 Volo by Ibanez and it was the bass I had settled on. I was getting really close to my goals and excited. Finally this weekend I was ready but the bass has disappeared from Long & McQuade's online store. I asked and the...

    Ibanez Volo BTB33: First Impressions

    I've been playing an MTD Kingston Heir and a Michael Kelly Club Deluxe 5, strung E-c, and I wanted to find a two-octave fiver with E-c tuning, mainly for jazz; a fellow TBer recommended the Ibanez Volo. When I found one used for a reasonable price, I ordered it. I have been looking for a fiver...

    Ibanez BTB33

    Played one a few times. Lots to dig. Why they put those cheap wanna be Barts in there really irks me. Neck is great to play on and the 33" scale sounds and feels good. If I jumped in a would probably swap the pups, which I know there are not a lot of options for that monstrous size. I'd like a...
