Key Features
Modern and unique. One of the two guitars designed by the band Chon, the Ibanez MAR10 Mario Camarena is a deft and adaptable instrument. Displaying all the attributes of a guitar built for playing fast, but flexible and malleable because of its extensive tonal pallet. HSS configuration pickups with a coil tap get you from Funk to Metal via Folk!
Differentiating it from another 'shredder's guitar' is its use of passive pickups that aren't going to push your amp too hard. This puts the tone back in your hands. With 9 different pickup positions to explore, you will be excavating new tonal territories.
Product Ref: 131380
Distinct, practical and versatile. It's a guitar that has to be adaptable. Chon is a fast-paced prog rock band, constantly changing styles so being able to handle intense demands is a must.
Despite its massive tonal palette, the layout of this guitar is very simple. A single volume, tone control, 5-way selector switch, and a 2-way toggle switch. This makes everything easy to follow and to change, even with stage lights and smoke machines getting in the way! Care and attention have been given to the hardware, opting for a Graph Tech nut, Gotoh bridge T1502 is a syncronised two-point tremolo will keep tuning stable even under a heavy hand. Then completed with Seymore Duncan Hyperion pickups...
Not active, not over the top. The Hyperion are moderate output pickups. They have a balanced and clean tone, preserving the natural sound of your guitar, even through distortion. The AlNiCo V magnets are punchy with a smooth midrange - this is a canvas for tone sculpting.
Baked maple is used on the fingerboard. Maple is baked at 200 degrees and then moisture is added under pressure. This gives a beautiful feel. Akin to rosewood and other hardwoods, it will play familiarly and endure.
It's a distinctive looking guitar without being obnoxious. Keeping the RG style body shape but coloured in a lavender metallic matte from head to toe. Then a roasted maple neck is completed with shark tooth inlays makes it look striking and clean.
