Ibanez ICHI10-VWM Ichika Nito Signature Headless Guitar - Vintage White Matte

Internet sensation and renowned guitarist Ichika Nito gained his global following and reputation through a unique combination of complex techniques and an easily identifiable signature sound. He captivates music fans and musicians alike with his unconventional, experimental style and a wholly original musical approach, through which he has become a favorite player and a major influence to players around the world. The Ibanez ICHI10, Ichika Nito's exciting and original signature design, capitalizes on original hardware and pickup designs from Ibanez and will serve as an indispensable asset in expressing his ever-evolving musical style.

Of all the options available to him, Ichika Nito chose the headless Q (Quest) series from Ibanez on which to base his signature model. This guitar largely holds to the specifications and design of the Q54, with a few notable changes. Ichika Nito's guitar features three Ibanez proprietary R1 single coil pickups rather than the standard HSS configuration. This setup helps accentuate Ichika Nito's emphasis on tonal clarity as well as bright, glassy sounds to help balance the highly rhythmic and percussive elements to his playing.
