Ibanez K7YIN Munky Signature 7-String Electric Guitar

Built to honor a groundbreaking collaboration that helped define the sound of an era, the Ibanez K7YIN Munky Signature 7-string electric guitar revives one of nu-metal's most iconic instruments. Working closely with James "Munky" Shaffer of Korn, Ibanez reintroduces the iconic K7 signature model with modern playability, crushing tone and unmistakable style. From the ultra-fast Wizard II-7 neck to the hard-hitting DiMarzio Blaze pickups and Lo-Pro Edge7 tremolo, the K7YIN is engineered for high-impact riffage. With its aggressive contours and stealthy blacked-out styling, it captures the raw power and signature aesthetic that shaped a generation. Whether you're tracking in the studio or igniting the stage, the K7YIN offers the precision and muscular low-end performance that 7-string players demand.

Nyatoh Body for Powerful, Balanced Tone

The K7YIN features a solid nyatoh body, chosen for its warm low end, rich mids and clear top end that complement the extended range of a seven-string guitar. A go-to tonewood for Ibanez, nyatoh provides excellent sustain and depth, ensuring that even the lowest notes cut through the mix with clarity—perfect for crushing Korn-inspired riffs. Combined with a sleek, comfortable body contour and a sinister blacked-out finish, it offers both stage-ready style and serious sonic muscle.

Ultra-Thin Wizard II-7 Neck for Maximum Speed

Ibanez's legendary Wizard II-7 neck is crafted from a five-piece maple/walnut laminate, offering the strength and stability required for aggressive playing styles. Its slim profile makes it ideal for fast runs, wide stretches and complex chord voicings across all seven strings. With a scale length of 25.5", this neck ensures consistent tension and intonation, while the double-locking Lo-Pro Edge7 tremolo system keeps everything locked in. Designed with demanding players in mind, the K7YIN's neck is the foundation of its lightning-fast playability and precision handling.

Ebony Fingerboard With Jumbo Frets and Superior Response

A premium ebony fingerboard adds cutting attack, tight lows and rich sustain to the K7YIN's tonal palette. Its natural smoothness makes it a joy to play, especially when navigating single-note lines and complex solos. Jumbo frets enhance control and allow for effortless bending and vibrato. Whether you're dialing in glassy cleans or high-gain aggression, the responsiveness of this fingerboard translates your playing with exacting detail. Luminescent side dot inlays also ensure perfect visibility even in the darkest stage environments.

DiMarzio Blaze Pickups for Aggressive, Articulate Tone

Designed to handle everything from warm, jazzy cleans to molten distortion, the DiMarzio Blaze pickups give the K7YIN its signature voice. With a scooped midrange and balanced output, these humbuckers are optimized for extended-range clarity without sounding harsh or muddy. They capture the complex harmonics and dynamic shifts that define Munky's sound, making them ideal for progressive metal, djent or any player seeking powerful yet defined tone. Coil-splitting isn't necessary here—just pure, articulate firepower across the board.

Stage-Ready Hardware With Legendary Stability

The K7YIN comes equipped with the renowned Lo-Pro Edge7 tremolo bridge—a favorite among players for its low-profile comfort, smooth action and rock-solid tuning stability. Locking studs ensure that even extreme whammy bar use doesn't throw your tuning off course. Gotoh machine heads provide precise, consistent tuning adjustments, while the overall hardware package is optimized for intense live performance. From riff-heavy breakdowns to expressive solos, this guitar stays responsive and reliable through it all.
