Ibanez QX54QM Q Series Headless Electric Guitar - Blue Sphere Burst Flat
The QX54QM features a quilted maple top on an ergonomic, compact, light-weight and resonant nyatoh body bolted to a roasted maple and bubinga neck with a 24-fret roasted birdseye maple fingerboard with mother of pearl step off-set dot position markers and luminescent side dots. Components include an Ibanez Q58 humbucking pickup at the bridge and a pair of Ibanez R1 single-coils mounted in a black pickguard in the middle and neck positions all with brushed stainless steel covers, individually mounted Mono-Tune bridges with integrated tuning mechanisms, a plastic nut, and a custom string lock. Controls consist of a single volume and tone and a 5-way pickup selector with a dyna-MIX9 switching system with an Alter toggle. While the QX54QM is not a true multi-scale guitar, its Jescar EVOgold frets, nut and bridge are slanted at a constant angle across the fretboard to better maintain a natural angle of the player’s wrist.
