In 2018, with Polyphia’s star ascending, Tim’s long-standing loyalty to Japanese builders Ibanez paid dividends in this custom-made signature model. See the full list of Tim Henson guitars and gear below. Since 2018, Henson’s primary guitar has remained his signature Ibanez THBB10 which has been designed to the last detail to meet his every need. Tim Henson plays Ibanez guitars and is known for his broad catalog of Super Strat-based RG and AZ Series models. Here, we’re taking a look at the gear Tim Henson uses to meld the electric guitar’s storied past with its intriguing future. Astonishingly, Berklee knocked Tim Henson back, and he attended the local community college while grinding away on the local band circuit. Henson fell in love with Jimi Hendrix early on, copying Hendrix’s stage moves and learning his licks, and even auditioned for the prestigious Berklee music college. At ten years old, he picked up the guitar instead so he could fit in with his group of friends, all of whom were skateboarders rather than orchestra kids. He was classically trained from the age of three, studying under “strict and disciplinary” Russian teachers. Surprisingly, Henson’s first instrument was not the guitar, but the violin. After all, didn’t Eddie Van Halen already redefine guitar as we knew it back in the 70s? What more could a modern player possibly do? Photo by Delusion23
Even fewer managed to do so in the twenty-first century, when it seemed like all that could be said on the electric guitar was already said.
Few guitar players have managed to redefine the boundaries of the art of guitar like Polyphia’s mastermind Tim Henson.
