Ibanez TOD20FMN-BFL Tim Henson Signature Black Burst Fade

Ibanez Tim Henson Signature Nylon String Guitar for Modern Creativity!

The Ibanez Tim Henson Signature nylon-string guitar combines the warm character of nylon strings with the direct playfeel of a modern stage guitar. With an FRH hollow body, flamed maple top, sapele back and sides, a side sound port and Fishman S-Core pickup plus Ibanez AEQ210TF preamp, you get a versatile instrument for fingerstyle, progressive sounds, recording and live performance.

Signature Concept With Modern Nylon DNA

This model follows Tim Henson's modern approach and translates the expression of nylon strings into a compact, stage-ready body shape. Instead of a classical concert-guitar silhouette, the design opts for a slim FRH profile that will feel familiar if you come from electric, hybrid or modern acoustic guitars. The result is an instrument that feels immediate, controlled and fast while still delivering the soft attack, dynamic response and rounded tonal character of nylon strings.

FRH Hollow Body With Side Sound Port

The modified FR hollow body with fan bracing is tuned for controlled resonance and a clearly defined response. The flamed maple top provides a precise, articulated tone, while the sapele back and sides add warmth, stability and a pleasant woody note. The side sound port improves your onstage sound perception by projecting part of the tone directly toward the player. That lets you control picking nuances, dynamic shading and fine articulation especially well, whether you're playing unplugged or through an amp, PA or interface.

Nyatoh Neck With Wide Nylon Foundation

The nyatoh neck with a C-profile offers a balanced mix of classic nylon playroom and modern playability. The 46 mm nut width gives you ample space 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 distinctive signature detail that gives the instrument its own identity without compromising its functional focus.

Fishman Pickup and Ibanez Preamp With Tuner

The Fishman S-Core pickup captures the nylon tone directly and in detail. Together with the Ibanez AEQ210TF preamp, it forms a practical system for stage, studio and home recording. Use Volume, Bass and Treble to dial the sound quickly for different amps, mixers, interfaces or effect chains. The phase switch helps control feedback and tonal behavior in live situations, while the built-in tuner simplifies onstage routine. 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 factory strings 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 built for precise, modern playing. It suits creative players who want nylon tone, slim ergonomics and stage-ready electronics in a distinctive instrument.
