Parallel Wizard 3pc Roasted Maple/Bubinga Neck
The Parallel Wizard neck is consistently 19mm thick along its entire length, providing a fantastic fretting-hand experience for players who prefer their instrument held higher. The 3-piece Roasted Maple/Bubinga construction ensures exceptional stability and long-lasting durability.

Roasted Birdseye Maple Fretboard
The striking Birdseye Maple fretboard adds an exotic touch to this model, while the heat treatment enhances the attack and sustain for a balanced sound.

Jumbo Stainless Steel Frets
Stainless steel frets are highly resistant to corrosion, and their wide, tall design offers quick response and smooth articulation when playing chords, along with clear, precise tone for single notes.

Quilted Maple Top / Nyatoh Body
The Quilted Maple top enriches the tonal response when picking, while the Nyatoh body wood produces a rich mid-to-low-end sound.

Q58 H-H Pickups
Specifically designed for headless guitars, the Q58 pickups deliver a well-balanced sound across all frequencies. The lows are strong but not muddy, and the highs are bright and clear without being harsh. This results in each note within a chord being clearly defined and audible. With excellent tonal balance and low noise, these pickups perform beautifully with both digital and analog effects.

Custom String Lock
The custom string lock is a single-piece unit with a simple design, requiring minimal maintenance. It’s highly durable and allows for easy string changes. Plus, no proprietary string is needed, so you can use your preferred gauge and brand.

Mono-Tune Bridges
The Mono-Tune bridges offer a broad range of intonation adjustments, making it easy to tune down a whole step or further. The string height is easily adjustable, and the reduced material in each saddle contributes to a more natural and organic tone.

dyna-MIX10 Switching System with Alter Switch
The dyna-MIX 10 system provides ten sound variations and allows for seamless switching between humbucker and single-coil modes using the mini switch. The Power Tap mode produces an authentic single-coil sound, even with the dual humbucker layout.

Luminescent Side Dots
Luminescent side dot position markers help players clearly see fretboard locations, especially in low-light performance settings.

Gig Bag Included
The Ibanez gig bag is custom-designed to fit and protect the instrument, ensuring safe and convenient transport.
