The BL100 features a basswood body with a white pickguard bolted to a maple neck with a 21-fret maple fingerboard with dot position markers. Components include an Ibanez humbucking pickup in the bridge position and two Ibanez single coil pickups in the middle and neck positions along with a non-locking synchronized tremolo bridge. The BL100 was available only in 1995. It was essentially replaced for 1996 with the limited edition BL150, which is a similar model with an agathis body with a natural finish and a black pickguard.
