Full Description

The Ibanez S series first appeared over 20 years ago. Ever since, it has evolved and changed in appearance and function to represent the cutting edge of Ibanez design. Famous for its lightweight carved mahogany body, the S will take a beating while still providing the resonance of guitars twice its size. The S series comes equipped with the ZR-2 tremolo system.

Ibanez have always been at the forefront of developing the right tools for players pushing the boundaries of music. For decades, Ibanez designers and luthiers have been the embodiment of this ideology, pushing their skills to the edge of imagination, consistently creating some of the most dynamic instruments ever.

Now Famous for its lightweight carved mahogany body, the S can take a beating while still providing the resonance of guitars twice its size.This S series Prestige Guitar comes equipped with the ZR tremolo system, a smooth ball bearing tremolo that makes every subtle nuance of whammy bar use come alive.Although it goes without saying that having the right tool for the job won't necessarily guarantee success, it can definitely help move the odds in your favour.

ZR-2 Tremolo

The ZR-2 is a revolutionary tremolo system. It plays incredibly smooth through the use of its ball bearing mechanism. This also keeps the string action constant, even during the most rigorous tremolo use. The top side features a smooth finish for total hand comfort, and the tremolo arm snaps in for quick setup.

ZPS3 Zero Point System

The ZPS3 is the next stage of zero point systems. Made of lightweight Duralumin, the addition of two outer springs makes the guitar easier to tune and provides much greater tuning stability. In fact, the other strings will stay in tune even if you break a string. If you prefer a full floating tremolo setup, simply remove the stop bar.

Sleek Body

The smooth, contoured Mahogany body of the S has long been a favourite for the extreme thrash of heavy metal players to the soft grace of fusion virtuosos.

Barless Top-Lok

The Barless Top-Lok eliminates the need for a retainer bar to maintain string tension. Through its simple design, it holds the correct angle for the strings without one. The metal-injection molding process means that all the edges remain smooth, so you won't hurt your hands.

HGD & ST Pickups

The Hot Grinder pickups are specially designed for the S Prestige to output extra volume, yet sharpness is not sacrificed. The new Short Tracer pickup matches perfectly with the hot humbuckers to give versatility on the S guitars and to produce even the most delicate tones.
