When Polyphia released Playing God in 2022 – a song that gave fans a glimpse of Tim Henson’s elusive new Ibanez nylon-string model – it proved to be a huge hit.
It was the perfect springboard for the launch of what was revealed to be Henson’s signature nylon-string electric acoustic, the Ibanez TOD10N, a year later, which subsequently became Reverb’s best-selling acoustic of 2023.
Now, Ibanez has released the TOD10NL, a left-handed model that extends the love to the lesser catered-for lefties – even if it arrived some 14 weeks after a miniature version, modeled by Henson’s dog on Instagram.
A thin, modified FRH-bodied build with fan bracing, it is made from a solid Sitka spruce top and sapele back and sides.
It features a 22-fret walnut fretboard emblazoned with Henson’s eye-catching Tree of Death inlay design, and a C-shape nyatoh neck – all the same specs that made the rightie model so popular.

Its sleek design is iced with a walnut bridge and gold classical tuners, with its tones ushering out from a Fishman S-Core pickup and augmented with Ibanez’s AEQ210TF preamp with an onboard tuner.
The pickup is active, so a 9V battery is a requirement, but well worth it for an authentic-sounding nylon that benefits from the thin, speed-friendly genetics of an Ibanez electric guitar.
