Know More

Premium Fret Edge Treatment

Our luthiers' insane attention to detail is evidenced by the Premium's hand-rolled fret edges. This slow, demanding process makes for a smooth, fast playing neck.

DiMarzio® ibz pickups

DiMarzio® ibz pickups were made by DiMarzio® specially for Ibanez.
The tone is vivid but easy to control to your sonic requirement.

Edge-Zero II w/ZPS3Fe

The Zero Point System in the Edge-Zero II makes tuning easier and faster as well as providing stable tuning for long performances, all while maintaining smooth tremolo playing. Engineered to remove all points of friction, ZPS is the smoothest Ibanez Back Stop ever. Even when a string breaks loss of tuning is minimized. For players that prefer a full floating system, simply remove the stop bar. The innovative use of an additional outer pair of springs provides easier tuning and noticeably greater tuning stability than the traditional floating tremolo.

ZPS (Zero Point System)

No friction points make the ZPS the smoothest Ibanez Back Stop ever.
An additional outer pair of springs provides easier tuning and better tuning stability than the traditional floating tremolo-plus the other strings will remain in tune if a string breaks.

Switchable To Floating Trem

One of the best ZPS features! Just remove the stop bar and the ZPS easily changes to floating trem operation.

Manually Adjustable Spring System

Spring tension can be quickly set by thumb. There's no need for a hex wrench.
