Ibanez S470 Natural 1997 Electric Guitar

Here for sale we have an Ibanez S470 Electric Guitar in Natural finish. Made in Japan in 1997, this guitar features a Mahogany body, Maple neck and a 22-fret Rosewood fingerboard. The hardware featured on this guitar consists of a Ibanez Lo-TRS tremolo bridge and Gotoh sealed tuning machines. The pickups in this guitar are a trio of Ibanez V1, V2 humbuckers and a Ibanez S2 single-coil, these are wired to 5-way selector, Master volume and tone controls. The Maple ‘Wizard’ profile neck sits comfortably in the hand, and with its Satin finish, that has been buffed to a gloss from previous playing, provides a quick and smooth surface to navigate on. The Rosewood fingerboard feels pleasant under the fingers whilst the 15.75” radius and Jumbo frets assist with string bending and vibrato techniques, feeling rock solid under the fingers and providing a smooth and reliable playing surface. The body cutaways provide unobstructed access right up to the 22nd fret and the 1.4” body thickness provides a lightweight guitar that is comfortable in both sitting and standing positions. The two Ibanez V1 and V2 humbuckers produce a thick and powerful modern tone. The neck pickup provides crystal clear clean sounds, with more aggressive mids and increased sustain as you crank the gain, this is perfect for high-speed solos and long sustained melodic interludes. The bridge pickup offers a tight bottom end, and a searing high frequency cut, making a great pickup for heavy styles of music and modern techniques. The Ibanez S2 single-coil in the middle position sits great with a nice balance of bright trebles and full warm bass, and lends itself well to rhythm tones. Providing a great feel and clarity, allowing the player to achieve a wide variety of tones all at the fingertips.
