The Ibanez Standard S521-OFM Ocean Fade Metallic comes in a streamlined saber design and therefore offers extremely comfortable playing characteristics. Ibanez uses mahogany for the narrow body, while the screwed neck is made of maple. The flat and wide "Wizard III" profile also provides the optimal foundation for high-speed solos and riffs on the Jatoba fingerboard. Two Ibanez Quantum Pickups on the guitar amplifier provide the adequate sound with a crisp response and assertive mid-focus. Last but not least the Ibanez Standard S521-OFM Ocean Fade Metallic is equipped with the Ibanez Fixed Bridge and precise Ibanez Die-Cast tuners.
The Ibanez Standard S521-OFM Ocean Fade Metallic at a glance:
The first thing that hits you is the looks. Absolutely gorgeous. No photo can give it justice, some graded metallic blue that shines a thousand lights in the sun. The set up was perfect for me right out of the box. It is my first S model and it is indeed so light and ergonomic, so thin and balanced. The sound is really strong, on a variety of amps I have. But I am only a house player, just for fun, so I am not going to give you any rundown on pickups etc. I play with some friends and it is my best guitar so far, and I have about ... too many by now. The pros will give you tips for the higher level. But honestly, an Ibanez S model for this price, I dont know how they do it. And I got it from MS to Luxembourg in less than 36 hours. Amazing service. 5 stars all over. Very happy customer.
