Frequently Asked Questions
The Edge-Zero II is designed for stability; it’s a floating tremolo that resists tuning instability better than older models, though it’s not a zero-retraction system.
Yes, the JS neck profile is slightly flatter and thinner than many Ibanez necks, offering a faster, more comfortable feel, particularly for players with smaller hands or a preference for lower action.
The Quantum is known for its clarity and articulation, providing high output without excessive muddiness – a characteristic that makes it ideal for complex, fast playing styles.
