Comfortable Headless Design with Slanted Frets

For the Quest QX54, Ibanez goes for an extremely comfortable headless design, tailored to the desires of tech-savvy guitarists. The flat Nyatoh body with its beautiful curly maple top fits the player perfectly thanks to its generously shaped contours, while the All Access Neck Joint and the wide cutaways make the entire neck playable. The neck is made of three pieces of roasted maple and bubinga, and with the pleasantly slim Wizard C profile it creates the best conditions for agile string work on the 24-fret fretboard made of Roasted Birdseye Maple. The 8° angled frets also accommodate the hand position of players who prefer a higher position of their electric guitar.

Flexible HSS pickup setup

With the HSS pickup setup developed especially for the Guitar and the innovative dyna-MIX9 circuit, which calls up nine different combinations of pickups via 5-way switch and Alter Switch, the Ibanez Quest QX54 delivers particularly versatile clean and overdrive sounds for the modern styles of fusion and rock. Both the R1 single coils and the Q58 humbucker convince with an even reproduction of all frequencies and a clearly audible string separation even with complex chord voicings.
