Overview
Ibanez's marvel of form and function, the S Series, continues to evolve for today's player.
Cloaked in a dramatic burst finish, a jatoba fingerboard features jumbo frets. Lurking beneath the S Series' graceful 3-D shape is Mahogany specifically chosen for S Series instruments. Light enough amaze in terms of comfort, heavy enough to provide the tone and sustain that players expect from the S Series. As the originators of the thin, fast neck, the Wizard III neck is yet another achievement in playability, providing the kind of comfort that translates to responsiveness and speed.
