The Ibanez TOD10N Tim Henson Signature is a groundbreaking nylon-string electric guitar that bridges the gap between classical guitar expressiveness and modern electric guitar playability, designed in collaboration with Polyphia guitarist Tim Henson. The nyatoh body with a solid spruce top produces a warm, woody acoustic tone that is amplified through a Fishman Sonicore piezo pickup mounted under the saddle, delivering natural, feedback-resistant amplified nylon-string tones. The slim C-shaped mahogany neck with a walnut fingerboard features the electric-standard 25.5-inch scale length and a flat 15.75-inch radius that will feel immediately familiar to electric players making the transition to nylon strings. The 24-fret fingerboard extends playability far beyond traditional classical guitars, enabling the tapping, legato, and technical passages that define Henson's playing style. Bone nut and saddle contribute to tonal clarity and sustain, while the gold hardware and transparent matte finish give the guitar a refined, modern aesthetic. The built-in preamp with volume and tone controls keeps amplified operation simple and stage-ready. This guitar is ideal for intermediate to advanced players in progressive, math rock, fingerstyle, and fusion who want nylon-string textures within an electric guitar framework. The nylon strings and wider nut width require significant technique adaptation for players accustomed exclusively to steel-string electrics.
