First-class woods and materials

The body made of maple (top), ash (back) and okumé guarantee optimum sound and playing results. The fretboard is made of ebonol to enable nuanced playing. Ebonol is a synthetic material made from several layers of paper. The neck-through 9-piece neck was reinforced with graphite inlays and is also made of maple, bubinga and panga panga.

Electronics

The tones are picked up by passive Nordstrand Big Single 5 pickups and refined by an active 3-band EQ with variable mid-band. Thanks to the special pickup selection, the instrument produces a full and powerful - as well as clear - sound. Of course, the EQ can be switched to a passive mode - in this case, the treble control acts as a global tone control.

Indestructible hardware

With tuners from Gotoh and the solid in-house MR5 bridge, Ibanez relies on tried-and-tested material: each bridge rider is connected separately to the body to retain all the nuances of the string. This also has the advantage of allowing separate intonation control. The tuners are visually rounded off by the "Cosmo Black" color.

VARI MID III

The bass boost filter has its maximum at approx. 20 Hz with a Boost of 20 dB and is then normalized to 0 dB around 1000 Hz. The treble boost filter reaches its maximum at approx. 20 KHz with a Boost of 20 dB and starts to take effect at approx. 100 Hz. The mid-boost filter does not work as Cutoff but with a bell curve with variable peaks between 100 Hz and 6 KHz.
