Ibanez Quest Standard Series Q52 Electric Guitar with Wizard C Neck, Laser Blue Matte

Because innovation and quality are at the heart of Ibanez's design philosophy, the Quest Standard Series Q52 Electric Guitar with Wizard C Neck in Laser Blue Matte is a testament to this commitment. This stylish and high-quality instrument is a game-changer in the realm of headless guitars, offering a fresh perspective on guitar design and performance.

The Q52 is not just a modification of an existing model, but a ground-breaking instrument developed from scratch. It features custom-designed R1 single coil and Q58 humbucker pickups, a state-of-the-art monotone bridge, and a proprietary custom string locking mechanism, all designed to enhance tone, performance, and playing comfort.

The Q52 is also equipped with innovative 8-degree inward slanted frets, a unique feature that enhances the ergonomics of the guitar, making it a perfect fit for technical players. This versatile instrument is designed to cater to a wide range of guitarists, from the modern, technical player to those who have never considered a headless guitar before.

The Wizard C 3pc Roasted Maple/Bubinga neck is designed to cater to various playing styles with its neutral shape. Its construction offers excellent stability and long-term durability. The heat-treated Roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard provides a balanced attack and rich sustain, while the Jescar EVO Gold frets are known for their bright tone and smooth note bending.

The Nyatoh body of the Q52 provides a rich mid-low end, and the Q58 H-H pickups are specifically designed for headless guitars, offering a well-defined sound with powerful lows and bright, clear highs. The custom string lock is a one-piece unit that requires less maintenance and allows for easy string changes.

The Mono tune bridges offer a wide intonation range, allowing for easy setup for tuning down a whole step or even further. The dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter Switch offers ten sound variations and can easily switch from humbucker and single coil modes with the mini switch.

The ergonomic body design features strategically placed curves on both the top and back of the instrument, providing maximum playing comfort. Despite its compact and lightweight design, its non-chambered, solid body delivers a resonant sound with rich woody tones. The Q52 also comes with a durable Ibanez gig bag for easy transportation.
