Full Description
View Full DescriptionMahogany Body and Maple Neck
With the Ibanez constructed from a mahogany body and maple neck, the guitar produces a range of tones that are exceptionally balanced and offer plenty of depth. Creating a warm, soft tone, the mahogany body brings with it the grind and bite for added roughness, whilst the maple neck helps keep things tight and bright. The two tonewoods work together to give sparkle and sizzle to the highs, a strong snappy attack to its midrange, and keeps the lows firm and thick.
Wizard III Neck Profile
It's all about comfort and speed with the Wizard III neck, providing the maple neck with a thin, contoured profile for those left hand manoeuvres. The fingerboard is made from rosewood to enhance the bright characteristics of the maple, and helps open up the midrange for big, booming notes.
Quantum Pickups
One of the most unique components of this guitar is the Quantum pickups located on the bridge and neck positions, along with a master volume, master tone, and 5-way switching. These pickups are designed to offer the player a range of tones, letting you shape your sound any way you'd like. The low-end is punchy yet articulate, making it ideal for punchy rhythm riffs. Ideal for rock and metal players, this guitar is balanced enough to suit nearly any playing style.
About Ibanez Guitars
Over the past 30 years, Ibanez Guitars have always been at the forefront of developing the right tools for electric guitar players pushing the boundaries of music. For decades, Ibanez designers and luthiers have been the embodiment of this ideology, pushing their skills to the edge of imagination, consistently creating some of the most versatile and unique instruments ever. Although Ibanez guitars have been made since 1908, it wasn't until the late 1980s that they began to form an identity for themselves when artists such as Steve Vai and Frank Zappa began using their instruments. Now with a huge artist clientele across the globe, Ibanez are a leading manufacturer of electric guitars and basses and a first choice for many dedicated musicians.
