Heavy-hitting Signature 7-string Electric from Ibanez The
Ibanez Munky Signature APEX30 represents a close collaboration between a
company dedicated to designing hard-hitting, impeccably playable
electric guitars and one of the more important players in down-tuned
nu-metal, James "Munky" Shaffer. As the lead guitarist for Korn, Shaffer
has been playing Ibanez guitars for the majority of his career. The
7-string APEX30 has the features that Shaffer has tested over and over
and honed to his tonal vision. With a nyatoh body and maple top, the
APEX30 is light and resonant. The 3-piece maple Wizard II-7 neck and
ebony fingerboard offers incredible response and feel — ideal for fast
riffs and heavy power chords. And with a pair of DiMarzio Blaze
humbuckers in the neck and bridge, the APEX30 is wired for heavy,
expansive, and expressive tone. EverTune bridge keeps you in tune Heavy
playing takes a toll on your tuning. The EverTune bridge on the APEX30
is an all-mechanical system that helps you stay in tune longer under any
playing situation. Small springs keep constant tension on your strings,
giving you long-lasting tuning stability and incredibly accurate
intonation, too. You can even adjust it to control how much your pitch
changes when you bend a string. Even if you're playing a long gig or
recording session, your tuning will be more stable regardless of your
playing style, temperature, or other variables. Pair of humbuckers drive tone to great heights The
DiMarzio Blaze in the bridge position is a modern humbucker that scoops
out the mids nicely, letting the bass and treble responses shine. This
increased bass response lets that 7th-string have its voice, cutting
through the mix and setting that heavy foundation for your sound. This
bridge humbucker is complemented beautifully by the neck position Blaze
that lets you tap into slightly cleaner tones while still handling
plenty of push when you decide to drive it a little harder. And with a
3-way pickup selector and Volume and Tone controls, you have even more
tone-shaping options at your fingertips. Fast, comfortable feel and long-term reliability from the Wizard II-7 neck The
3-piece maple Wizard II-7 neck on the APEX30 is a favorite. Slim and
super-comfortable, the Wizard II-7 is ideal for lightning-fast runs and
arpeggios as well as churning out heavy-hitting power chords.
