Description
Pushing the boundaries of modern guitar construction, Ibanez built this QX527PB 7-string to provide guitarists with an incomparable playing experience. If you've been hunting for a state-of-the-art headless 7-string guitar, look no further - every feature on this instrument was designed to offer the utmost in tone, ergonomics, and versatility.
The eye-catching body of this QX527PB 7-string feels incredibly comfortable whether you're seated or standing, courtesy of its numerous strategically placed curves on both the top and back. It's compact and lightweight as well, making it excellent for extended performances and practice sessions. Though it might sport a slimmed-down body, this axe has no short supply of tone - its solid Nyatoh body projects a rich mid-range and a tight low-end response that complements many styles of music exceptionally well. And, equipped with a heavy-duty Mono-Tune bridge, this guitar has an impressively wide intonation range that makes it perfect for down-tuning.
Spec'd to accommodate even the most demanding techniques, the neck on this QX527PB 7-string is one of the most comfortable necks Ibanez has ever created. Crafted with maple and bubinga, this ultra-stable neck is 19mm thick throughout the entire length, giving it an excellent in-hand feel for guitarists who prefer a higher playing position. The roasted maple fretboard on this guitar sports 24 slanted Jumbo Jescar EVOgold frets that not only look stunning but accommodate the natural inward tilt of the fretting fingers when riffing further up the neck.
Powering this guitar is a set of super-modern Q58-7 pickups, painstakingly modified to pair well with headless 7-string instruments. These humbuckers churn out divine sonic textures, characterized by clarity and articulation with an exceptional tonal balance across the entire frequency spectrum. With powerful lows, punchy mids, and chiming highs, these pickups pump out a rich but defined sound. Thanks to Ibanez's masterful craftsmanship, these pickups have an extremely low noise performance, allowing them to pair well with both digital and analog effects. And, with a Dyna-MIX 10 switch that offers ten unique single coil and humbucking combinations, you'll be able to tone-sculpt to your heart's content.
Brimming with ultra-modern performance features, this guitar will perform admirably in the hands of even the most technically skilled guitarists. Whether you're a vetted 7-string enthusiast or you're looking to purchase your first headless instrument, this QX527PB 7-string guitar is guaranteed to unlock your creative potential.
