Part of Ibanez's innovative Quest series, the QX52 boasts a headless design engineered to enhance tone, performance, and comfort. Despite its lightweight construction, the ergonomic nyatoh body produces rich, resonant tones that defy its compact size. The QX52's Parallel Wizard neck offers a seamless playing experience, with slanted frets making techniques like tapping, fingerstyle, and slapping effortless. The custom pickups provide exceptional articulation and definition, complemented by Ibanez's renowned dyna-MIX10 switching system. Robust hardware, including a custom string lock and the advanced Mono Tune bridge, ensures easy string changes and reliable performance. Stainless steel frets add to the durability and playability of this guitar. Whether you're looking for your first headless guitar or an upgrade, the Ibanez QX52 promises to unlock endless creative potential.
Parallel Wizard neck enhances technical playing The QX52 is designed for advanced playing styles, featuring the Parallel Wizard neck made from maple and bubinga. This ultra-stable, 3-piece neck is uniformly 0.75 inches thick, providing excellent playability, especially for higher playing positions. The heat-treated bird's-eye maple fingerboard is not only visually striking but also features 8-degree slanted frets for easy execution of intricate techniques. Stainless steel frets ensure durability and smooth note bending. The QX52 offers a zero-drag playing experience ideal for technical metal, jazz-rock fusion, and experimental genres. For complex playing techniques, the QX52 allows for cleaner and faster performance.
Custom pickups deliver diverse tones The Ibanez QX52's Q58 humbuckers, designed specifically for headless guitars, produce a wide range of tones with high articulation and definition. These pickups provide balanced sound across the entire range, delivering powerful lows without muddiness and clear, piercing highs without harshness. They minimize noise, even at high gain, and work well with both digital and analog effects. The dyna-MIX10 switching system offers 10 different pickup combinations via an Alter Switch and a 5-way lever switch, allowing the QX52 to achieve a wide variety of sounds across genres.
Advanced hardware withstands aggressive playing The QX52 is equipped with durable, cutting-edge hardware. Its custom string lock features a simple, robust design that requires minimal maintenance and makes string changes easy. You can use your preferred string gauge and brand, as the QX52 doesn't need proprietary strings. The Mono Tune bridge allows for a wide range of intonation, making it easy to down tune. This bridge is also easy to adjust and its streamlined saddle design gives each note a natural, organic feel.
