Ibanez TOD10N Tim Henson Signature Nylon-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Pearl Pink Flat

Seamlessly blending classical tone with electric-style playability, the Ibanez TOD10N Tim Henson signature nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar pushes the nylon-string guitar into entirely new territory. Developed with one of modern guitar’s most forward-thinking players, Tim Henson of Polyphia, it reflects his genre-defying approach—combining technical precision with a sleek, performance-driven design. A solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid sapele back and sides delivers a clear, articulate voice, while the thin hollowbody construction and side sound port allow for high-volume performance with reduced feedback. A nyatoh neck with a slim C profile and rosewood fingerboard offers a fast, comfortable feel, while a 15.75" radius and 1.81" nut width make complex playing more accessible. Finally, a Fishman S-Core pickup and Ibanez preamp ensure clean, stage-ready tone, while Tim’s signature “Tree of Death” inlay and minimalist appointments give the instrument a distinctive, modern edge.

All-Solid Tonewoods and Hybrid Hollowbody Construction

A solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid sapele back and sides delivers a clear, balanced tonal foundation with strong articulation and focused midrange. The spruce top provides headroom and dynamic response, while sapele adds warmth and definition. This familiar tonewood pairing is combined with the TOD10N’s thin hollowbody design, which helps reduce feedback and enhances control in amplified settings. Traditional fan bracing supports a natural nylon-string response, while the slim, ergonomic body enhances comfort during extended play. With no traditional top soundhole and a side sound port for direct monitoring, the design maintains an acoustic feel while adapting seamlessly to modern performance environments.

Electric-Inspired Nyatoh Neck for Speed and Precision

A nyatoh neck paired with a rosewood fingerboard and slim C profile delivers a fast, comfortable feel that’s immediately familiar to electric players. With a 1.81" nut width and a 15.75" fingerboard radius, it offers a more approachable playing surface than a traditional classical guitar, making complex chords and technical passages easier to navigate. The rosewood fingerboard adds warmth and balance to the attack while maintaining clarity and note separation. Combined with a 22-fret layout and extended upper-fret access, the design supports fluid movement across the neck for modern, technical playing styles.

Fishman S-Core Pickup and Ibanez Preamp for Stage-Ready Control

Equipped with a Fishman S-Core pickup and Ibanez AEQ210TF preamp, the TOD10N translates its natural acoustic voice into a clear, balanced amplified signal. Onboard controls for volume, bass and treble allow quick tonal adjustments, while a phase switch helps reduce feedback and refine low-end response in live settings. A built-in tuner ensures you’re always dialed in, making the system practical and reliable for performance while preserving articulation and detail across a wide range of playing dynamics.

Signature Tim Henson Appointments With a Modern Edge

From the striking “Tree of Death” fingerboard inlay to its clean, minimalist silhouette, the TOD10N reflects Tim Henson’s distinctive visual style—modern, refined and immediately recognizable. Pearloid body binding adds subtle contrast, while the smooth matte finish reinforces its contemporary, stage-ready aesthetic. A rosewood bridge and bone nut support stable tuning and accurate intonation, while classical-style tuners provide smooth, precise adjustment. Every detail complements the guitar’s forward-thinking identity without distracting from its performance-driven design.

Tim Henson Signature Built for Modern Nylon-String Performance

As a founding member of Polyphia, Tim Henson has inspired a new generation of players through a combination of technical mastery, fearless creativity and a willingness to challenge convention.

Built for players seeking a nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar that supports technical precision and amplified performance, it delivers clarity, control and versatility across a wide range of styles. The Ibanez TOD10N Tim Henson signature nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar offers a forward-looking interpretation of nylon-string design.
