Ibanez S5470 Electric Guitar - Mint Condition

Product Information


The pinnacle of shred science.

This Ibanez S5470 Prestige is the electric guitar other metal-minded guitars will be judged against. 24 frets of wicked fast neck, ZR2 bridge with ZPS3 spring system, and an advanced tonal versatility give the S5470 guitar an edge over most guitars in its class.

Heavy mahogany tone without the heavy mahogany weight. Thin around the edges for comfort, fat around the pickups and bridge for tone. S Prestige model features HGD1 Hot Grinder neck humbucker pickup, ST1 Short Tracer mid single-coil pickup, and HGD2 Hot Grinder bridge humbucker pickup. The Hot Grinder humbuckers are hot, yet sharp enough to hear the pick bite the strings. The Short Tracer has a strong magnet that provides full output in low profile setting.

5-piece neck with Prestige finishing for increased playing comfort, Gotoh precision tuning machines and deluxe Prestige case. Made in Japan by Ibanez's best craftsmen.

The ZR2 (Zero Resistance) bridge with the ZPS3 spring system returns you to "zero" center point after each use of the tremolo arm, even in the case of string breakage! No more wondering if you're back in tune or worse, knowing you're not! One more way to provide more dive-bombing freedom with less hassle.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

Amazing!

Just 1 word can describe this guitar, as the title suggests, amazing! The moment I opened the case (This guitar does come with a case, if you missed that in the description) I knew it was gonna suit my needs. I got the S5470 Satin Oil finish. This thing is sheer beauty. It's very light, not quite as light as I had expected but it's definitely lighter than my Zakk Wylde Epiphone Les Paul custom. The pickups sound great, best on a clean setting though. The tremolo STAYS IN TUNE. Don't let a lot of other tremolos fool you, this thing WILL stay in tune. I've played many hours on it already, the strings are still in tune from when I first tuned it. That's the great thing about this tremolo, it moves on ball bearings, not a knife edge, that gives it amazing tuning stability. The only downside is you don't get the "flutter" affect that a floyd rose original can give. This tremolo also features the zero point bar, this adds to the stability. If you break a string, it won't go out of tune. This makes it a little stiff on diving though but you'll get used to it. I would highly recommend this guitar if you have the money.

S5470BW-RVF

I got this guitar in the limited run Red Viking Flat and this is hands down the best guitar I have ever played. The pickups sound full and rich and everything pulls through. The neck is the flatest and fastest I've played on and it is a dream. I will never switch from Ibanez ever. These guitars are phenomenal!

pretty cool

i think that this is an exeptional guitar for all players, its neck is something i have never experienced before and what i mean is it feels really smooth and comfortable and even moderate players can shred on this guitar. the gotoh precision tuneing machines are a little tricky at first getting to know them and the way they work but this guitar definetly stays in tune. I am pretty sure this is a metal guitar though i mean it gives a nice blues tone but if you buy it you should be thinking metal. i also like the fret board because i have small hands and i can still play cool rifs on the low e and a strigs. another thing on the gotoh machines dont get frustated with them just take it into guitar center and ask the workers to help you and i am sure they will be happy to tell you all about them. so this guitar is cool and i would recomend it to anyone. but its going to be my signiture so watch out.

shredders dream come true

The guitar is what it is a perfect instrument of shredding it has what every shredder dreams of: an extremely light body, an ultra fast neck it is impossible for this guitar to go out of tune and i tried by doing a couple dive bombs and it still stays in tune. I also love that you can adjust the whammy bar basically this guitar is the whole package of shred science.

Has some issue, but a good guitar in general

The guitar feels great on the neck - it is so smooth. But unfortunately, it has some sustain issue. It doesn't decay naturally, but it just dies suddenly.
