A New Series from Ibanez, Plus a Special Signature Model and More!

Ibanez debuts a new series—The Quest Series, is a line of headless guitars featuring the new signature model made for Japan's Ichika. 

At the forefront of the series is the Ichika Signature. Constructed in collaboration with the Japanese technical wizard, this stately Vintage White Matte model features a roasted birdseye maple fretboard, traditional frets, and a trio of R1 pickups.

IBANEZ AZES SERIES

Ibanez takes on more triple-pickup designs with Azes Series, HSS- and SSS-equipped models like the AZES31 Standard, available in Ivory and Vermillion, and the AZES40 Standard, available in Black, Mint Green, and Purist Blue, all loaded with alter switching.

IBANEZ QUEST SERIES

Made for players who prize high-performance features and outside-of-the-box design, the Ibanez Quest series brings back the famous silhouettes of the 1980s. Ibanez moves the tuning machines to the opposite end of the instrument, displacing the strap buttons for a distinctive look and one-of-a-kind playing experience. The series' other key features include roasted maple and bubinga necks, slanted Jescar EVO Gold frets, alter switch, and Quest Series pickups.

IBANEZ IRON LABEL SERIES

Finally, the new Ibanez Iron Label Series lives up to its name with 6- and 7-string Xiphos models and, of course, an Iceman, each finished in flat black and outfitted with Nitro Wizard necks, jumbo frets, and high-performance pickups. 

Learn about what's new from Ibanez. Whatever your personal preference, you'll find that the Quest Series all deliver the signature sound and performance you've come to expect from one of the shredder's top brands. Take your pick and tear it up today!
