Ibanez TOD10N-SMF Guitar Silver Metallic Flat

Ibanez Tim Henson Signature Nylon-String Guitar for Modern Expressive Power!

The Ibanez Tim Henson TOD10N blends the warm, articulate tone of nylon strings with the direct handling of a modern stage guitar. With a solid Sitka spruce top, Sapele back and sides, a modified FR hollow body, a side sound port, plus a Fishman S-Core pickup and Ibanez AEQ210TF preamp, you get a versatile instrument for fingerstyle, progressive tones, recording and live performance.

Signature Concept for Modern Nylon Sounds

This model channels Tim Henson's creative approach and translates the character of a nylon-string guitar into a compact, stage-ready body shape. Instead of a traditional classical silhouette the design uses a slim FRH profile that feels especially familiar if you come from electric, hybrid or modern acoustic guitars. At the same time the soft attack, dynamic response and rounded tonal character of nylon strings remain intact. That makes the guitar ideal for fingerstyle, hybrid picking, modern pop arrangements, loops, progressive parts and detailed studio work.

FR Hollow Body With Solid Top

The solid Sitka spruce top offers quick response, clear articulation and dynamic tonal development. Back and sides of Sapele add warmth, stability and a balanced midrange. The modified FR hollow body with fan bracing is tuned for controlled resonance and practical handling. The side sound port improves your on-stage perception because part of the sound projects directly toward the player. You can therefore control attack nuances, dynamic shading and fine articulation especially well—whether you practice unplugged or play through an amp, PA or interface.

Comfortable Neck for Precise Playing

The Nyatoh neck with a C profile strikes a good balance between classic nylon playing space and modern playability. The 46 mm nut width gives you enough room for clean chords, complex voicings, arpeggios and fingerstyle patterns while remaining comfortably manageable. The rosewood fingerboard with a 400 mm radius supports precise lines and a clear feel across all 22 frets. The Tree of Death inlay is a striking signature detail that gives the instrument a distinct identity without compromising its functional focus.

Fishman Pickup and Ibanez Preamp With Built-In Tuner

The Fishman S-Core pickup captures the nylon sound directly and in detail. Paired with the Ibanez AEQ210TF preamp this creates a practical system for stage, studio and home recording. Use Volume, Bass and Treble to quickly adapt the tone to different amps, mixers, interfaces or effect chains. The phase switch helps control feedback and tone behavior in live settings, while the integrated tuner makes gigging life easier. The setup stays straightforward yet flexible enough for modern musical demands.

Thoughtful Hardware for Reliable Playability

The rosewood bridge with a bone saddle supports clean vibration transfer and stable response. A bone nut, gold classical tuners and the factory stringing in .028/.032/.040/.028W/.035W/.044W provide a balanced feel across treble and bass strings. With a 25.5" scale, 11.6 mm string spacing and a glued neck-body joint at the 16th fret, this signature nylon-string guitar is designed for precise, modern playing. It's made for creative players who want nylon tone, slim ergonomics and stage-ready electronics in a distinctive instrument.
