Ibanez S5521Q-TAB Prestige Transparent Aqua Blue

General

Lightning-quick guitarists usually have some pretty demanding requirements for their instruments. Ibanez, of course, knows this like no other, and caters to these virtuosos with great guitars like the Ibanez S5521Q-TAB Prestige in Transparent Aqua Blue. Clearly, they've given lots of attention to even the most minute details. The instrument features a Super Wizard SP neck, which is very slender and very swift. To help fine-tune the action and keep it constant, Ibanez uses titanium-reinforced truss rods. The fretboard, meanwhile, has 24 jumbo frets with Prestige fret edge treatment, meaning they've been smoothed for more playing comfort.

Ibanez S5521Q-TAB Prestige in Transparent Aqua Blue

With a radius that measures almost 17", the Ibanez S5521Q Prestige's fretboard is remarkably flat. You can perform pretty extreme string bends all over the neck, without deadening the tone. Furthermore, the slender body is made of mahogany and has a gorgeous maple top with a Transparent Aqua Blue finish. Finally, there's a fixed Gibraltar Standard bridge and two top-of-the-line pickups - a V7 at the neck and a V8 at the bridge - that, along with an ingenious 5-way pickup switch, allow for a wide variety of sounds.

The Ibanez Prestige series

The Ibanez Prestige series guitars are all manufactured with the greatest care, and each one has its own sound and character. Like all Prestige instruments, this solid-body guitar was made in the Ibanez workshop in Japan and lives up to the company's highest standards. Ibanez chose wood types with excellent resonance and great tonal properties, and used great-quality hardware and pickups. To top it all off, it features a stunning finish. Ibanez Prestige guitars are among the best guitars that the company makes.
