Ibanez TOD70 Tim Henson Signature 7 String Electric Guitar

The Ibanez TOD70 CSV is the brand new for 2024 Tim Henson Signature 7-String RH Electric Guitar with Bag in Classic Silver. Looking very similar to the 6 string model, this is the first 7 string signature guitar for Tim Henson.

Polyphia is a primarily instrumental progressive rock band based in Plano, Texas. By weaving technical and virtuosic guitar instrumentations together with hip-hop, jazz and R&B-influenced production and grooves, Polyphia has created a truly unique and original sound.

Ibanez has worked closely with Tim Henson, one half of the dynamic guitar duo of Polyphia, for many years, and together have developed a signature model, the TOD. The guitar is highly inspired by the Ibanez AZ model, and it also features some of Tim's personal touches to make it perfectly designed for his versatile playing style.
The TOD's most striking aesthetic feature may be the fingerboard inlay design, which Tim has dubbed as the "Tree of Death". The name and the design are both nods to the iconic Ibanez "Tree of Life" inlay design, but with a twist.
