Sporting a stunning Poplar Burl top and a sleek Cosmic Blue Low Gloss finish, this eye-catching instrument is a true masterpiece of modern design and craftsmanship. But it’s not just about looks—the Q52PB is packed with advanced features that cater to technical players while offering a rich, resonant tone that’s versatile enough to suit any style.

Discover New Horizons of Sound

The Q52PB features Ibanez's unique Q58 H-H pickups, specially voiced to provide exceptional tonal balance across the entire frequency range. The lows are deep and rich without being muddy, and the highs are bright and clear without a trace of harshness. The result is a sound that’s articulate and full-bodied, whether you’re playing clean or pushing your amp into overdrive. Whether you're exploring complex jazz harmonies or shredding intricate solos, every note rings out with pristine clarity, making it ideal for both studio work and live performances.

Built for Speed and Comfort

The guitar’s ergonomic design is a game-changer, delivering exceptional comfort for prolonged playing sessions. The Wizard C 3-piece Roasted Maple/Bubinga neck offers the perfect blend of speed and stability, while the Roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard provides a silky-smooth playing surface. Ibanez’s proprietary Mono-Tune bridge and custom string lock system enhance tuning stability and make string changes a breeze, ensuring you spend more time playing and less time adjusting.

Ultimate Tone Control

Equipped with the dyna-MIX10 switching system, the Q52PB gives you instant access to 10 unique tonal variations, seamlessly shifting from powerful humbucker crunch to crystalline single-coil clarity with a flick of the Alter Switch. Whether you’re looking for rich, sustaining leads or snappy, funky rhythms, this guitar delivers.

Who’s Playing the Q52PB?

While the Q52PB isn’t a signature model, its headless design and cutting-edge features make it an ideal choice for progressive and technical players who prioritize precision and versatility. Artists like Tim Henson (Polyphia) and Tosin Abasi (Animals as Leaders) are known for pushing the boundaries of guitar performance with similarly advanced instruments. The Q52PB is perfect for players inspired by these trailblazers, seeking to create complex, genre-defying soundscapes.
