Achieve Ichika Nito's tone with custom-voiced ICHI-S pickups

The Ichika Signature ICHI00 is loaded with three ICHI-S single-coil pickups. Ibanez worked closely with Ichika Nito to design pickups that fit his clean, technical style. These custom-voiced pickups perfectly encapsulate his unique and experimental tone. You get a 5-way pickup selector switch and master volume and tone knobs to shape your sound. Plug into your favorite amplifier or amp-emulation plug-in, and the ICHI-S pickups effortlessly float to the top of any arrangement you come up with.

Wizard C neck offers wicked playability

Technical players like Ichika need necks that encourage them to reach new playing heights, not slow down. Music Experience is pleased to report that the Ichika Signature ICHI00 comes ready for battle with a maple neck carved into a Wizard C profile. Ibanez's Wizard necks are legendary for their paper-thin nature and fluid playability. The Wizard C neck shape is ever so slightly chunkier than the Wizard III neck. This gives you a bit more wood to grab onto, increasing comfort when chording. The neck comes topped by a rosewood fingerboard and medium nickel fret.

Player-centered hardware

Look closer at the Ichika Signature ICHI00 and you'll find a bounty of player-centered additions. First, you get a T106 tremolo bridge, which enables expressive playing options from gentle warbles to gargantuan dive bombs. The bridge features six independent saddles, each with precise intonation and height-adjustment capabilities. Next, Gotoh MG-T tuning machines help you stay in tune. And if you ever break a string, the locking tuners make string changes fast and hassle-free. Finally, the rosewood fingerboard is equipped with luminescent side dots to help you navigate up and down the neck while onstage.
