Description

Sleek, stylish, and sonically powerful, the Ibanez S320 redefines what it means to play an electric guitar. With its innovative design, this guitar is the perfect fusion of form and function, making it a favorite among both emerging talents and seasoned professionals. Its mahogany body is uniquely sculpted—thin around the edges for unmatched comfort and thicker around the pickups to deliver that rich, full-bodied tone every musician craves.

What sets the S320 apart is the ZR tremolo bridge. Unlike conventional systems, the ZR tremolo utilizes ball bearings, ensuring your arming is as smooth as your scales. This means you can dive and bend without the worry of tuning instability. The 3-piece maple neck offers incredible strength and plays like a dream, allowing for quick, effortless movement across the fretboard.

Outfitted with Ibanez's INF humbuckers, the S320 ensures your sound is always clear and powerful, whether you're strumming soulful blues or shredding heavy metal. This guitar doesn't just make music—it makes a statement.

Key Features:

  • Mahogany body with a unique sculpted design for comfort and tone
  • 3-piece maple neck for enhanced playability and strength
  • ZR tremolo bridge with ball bearings for smooth operation
  • Equipped with Ibanez INF humbuckers for a versatile sound palette

Pretty Slick

This is the first of this type of guitar I ever bought. It was on the used wall of Charlie's Guitar Shop in Dallas, Texas. It was missing the tremolo bar, but what attracted me to it was the sleek body shape with contoured top and back. I had never held a guitar like this. I also quite like the non-laquered finish in flat black paint over the wood, revealing the grain. Being a Gibson fan, I instantly noticed the difference in the playability and the sound. It was really easy to make it squeal and playing note to note almost had a more lighter and digital quality to it. Definitely not used to this being that my favorite guitars to play are Gibson ES-335s and Les Pauls. It's light and fun to play, also good for metal.
