Ibanez Brian "Head" Welch Signature K7YANG 7-String Electric Guitar w/ Bag - Matte White

The Ibanez K7YANG is a devastatingly powerful signature instrument engineered in collaboration with Korn's legendary guitarist, Brian "Head" Welch. Dressed in a stark, clean Matte White finish with premium gold hardware, this 7-string machine is built from the ground up to deliver the earth-shaking, ultra-low rhythm structures and crushing riffs that defined the nu-metal genre.

The core of this signature weapon pairs an okoume body with a maple top, providing a dense and punchy tonal profile with plenty of low-end authority and a snappy mid-range response. It features a rock-solid, bolt-on 5-piece maple/walnut neck carved into the ultra-slick Wizard II-7 profile, which measures a comfortable 19mm at the first fret and 21mm at the twelfth. The premium rosewood fingerboard is decorated with a distinctive K-7 special inlay at the 12th fret, glowing luminescent side dots for visibility on dark stages, and a flat 400mm radius. Loaded with 24 jumbo frets across a traditional 25.5" scale length, this neck yields a fluid and high-speed playing surface.

To survive the punishing demands of drop-tuned playing, the K7YANG comes factory tuned to a low A (1D, 2A, 3F, 4C, 5G, 6D, 7A) and features a cutting-edge Evertune bridge system. This mechanical system keeps the guitar perfectly in tune and perfectly intonated under intense picking hand pressure, no matter how hard you dig into the strings. Sonically, it is armed with a calibrated set of passive DiMarzio Blaze humbuckers in both the neck and bridge positions. Driven by ceramic magnets, these pickups are world-renowned for their scooped mid-range, tight bass tracking, and pristine note definition under massive high-gain distortion.

The hardware package is strictly professional-grade, anchored by high-performance Gotoh machine heads for fast and smooth adjustments. Spaced at an ergonomic 10.3mm string spacing and fitted with heavy-duty D'Addario EXL110-7 strings, this instrument is fully optimized for heavy physical performances. Complete with a matching white headstock and a sleek gold hardware configuration, this signature model stands as a premium, stage-ready tool built for modern metal heavyweights.

Condition: This is a b-stock Ibanez Brian "Head" Welch Signature K7YANG in Matte White. The reason this is a b-stock is because of two finish imperfections on the back of the guitar. The finish imperfection along the back side of the body is open and you can feel as your run your finger across (see photos).
