For a long time, Ibanez didn't have a regular Iceman (apart from the 7-string Iron Label and various Paul Stanley models) in its range, but this is changing with the chic and contemporary IC420, here in the violin sunburst version with flamed maple top!

The Japanese instrument maker Ibanez can look back on a long tradition in guitar and bass construction. Although Ibanez initially made a name for itself with idiosyncratic copies of traditional models from makers like Gibson and Fender, its own series gradually emerged, such as the Iceman, JEM, Artcore and RG. In the 1980s the company became particularly well known in the heavy sector with instruments that stood out for their modern features, distinctive design and excellent playability. Innovations such as 7- and 8-string guitars, born from fruitful collaborations with artists like Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Meshuggah, further helped to establish Ibanez's strong reputation. Today the manufacturer offers an extensive range, from entry-level guitars and basses to exotic Custom Shop models. In addition, Ibanez also impresses in the field of effects and amplifiers, as the classic TS9 Tubescreamer proves. Here you'll find a comprehensive selection of guitars, basses, amplifiers, effects and accessories from Ibanez.

Ich war schon einige Zeit versucht mir eine Iceman zu ordern. Da gab's allerdings nur die PS120 mit den Specs die mir zusagen. Allerdings bin ich kein Freund schwarzer Gitarren (außer einer LP Custom) Die PS 60 mit geschraubtem Hals ist auch keine Option, ich mag dieses Feature nicht und auch die Farbauswahl ist überschaubar. Da kam diese 420 gerade recht. Geleimter Hals, Super 80 PickUps und Flamemaplefinish in schönem Burst. Genau mein Beuteschema. O. k., Mahagoni und Palisander gehören in diesem Preissegment scheinbar der Vergangenheit an, ich bin an der Stelle aber eher leidensfähig, weil die Gitarre klingen und gut bespielbar sein muß. Das ist hier der Fall. Zudem einwandfrei verarbeitet mit einem nicht zu dünnen Hals und auch nicht bleischwer. Somit bin ich absolut zufrieden mit diesem doch relativ exotischen aber kultigen Teil. Jetzt warte ich noch auf eine Neuauflage der Ibanez DT. Eine Artist habe ich schon. Damit sind dann die für mich begehrenswerten Ibanezgitarren abgefrühstückt.
