Classic 80s Ibanez Japan quality!
This guitar offers you an amazing 80s vibe with the H S S configuration, locking trem and fast neck! 10+ pickup options with your humbucker, single single and 3 mini toggles for each. Each pickup sounds great, nice stratty sounding IBZ/USA hum cancelling singlecoils in the neck and middle and a dimarzio Fred in my case in the bridge (splittable with the 3 way mini toggle for the humbucker). This guitar has the original 80s Wizard neck which is incredibly slim and fast even for being a glossy neck. The Ibanez edge bridge is my alltime favorite bridge. period. Overall this guitar is the 80s look, feel and sound.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Typically used for glam rock/metal sound- full bridge humbucker with full volume, nice and glassy.
