The endless Ibanez quest for innovative instruments and unique sounds makes a notable stop at this juncture with the Q52. An outwardly one of a kind guitar, the Q52 is unlike any other guitar today. Strict attention to detail and inventive imagination come together in this unique entry from Ibanez.
The Q52 is designed with a nyatoh body in a double cutaway, contoured shape. Its light weight makes it easy to carry and hold while remaining acoustically resonant. Ibanez’s Wizard C neck profile fills the your hand comfortably for ergonomic handling, perfect for making fast travels across the roasted maple fingerboard. Strum, pick, tap – any way you want to play the Q52, its body and neck are undeniably unique but also inviting for players of any style.
The Q52’s bridge is a special creation. The Ibanez Mono-Tune bridge is specially designed to ensure sturdy intonation and easy string adjustment. At the other end of the Q52, the eye-catching headless design and custom string lock contribute to the quick handling and solid playing experience.
If the headless design and specialized bridge aren’t enough to make you fall head over heels for this guitar, its humbucking voices are sure to do the trick. Two Q58 passive/ceramic humbucker pickups offer a large palette of tones via its five-way pickup selector toggle and Alter control switch. Ten possible pickup configurations make the Q52 exciting to explore and experiment with, all while remaining totally musical.
The unique feel in hand and wide gradient of tones possible from the Ibanez Q52 make it an exceptionally striking guitar to see in a collection or on a stage. In either case, it steals the show.
