Frequently Asked Questions
The Quantum pickups are a step up from Ibanez’s older pickups, offering more clarity and a tighter low-end without sacrificing high-end sparkle – a great balance for modern rock.
The Wizard III neck is known for being slim, so players with larger hands might find it a bit cramped, but it's still manageable for most.
It’s a translucent finish, meaning you can still see the ash grain underneath – it’s a really striking and well-executed look.
