Full Description
The Ibanez QX52B is a standout entry in the Quest series, specifically engineered for players who seek the benefits of a headless design paired with high-performance ergonomics. Featuring a "Weathered Black" finish that gives it a sleek, tactical aesthetic, the QX52B is built from the ground up to provide a unique playing experience that maximizes technical speed and tonal clarity.
The body is crafted from lightweight Okoume, offering a resonant and balanced tone that sits perfectly in a mix. It features the Parallel Wizard 3-piece neck, constructed from Roasted Maple and Bubinga. This specific neck profile maintains a consistent thickness throughout its length, providing a highly stable and comfortable feel for the fretting hand regardless of position. The ebony fingerboard is outfitted with 24 jumbo stainless steel frets and a 508mm (20") radius, ensuring effortless bends and a lightning-fast response.
Powering the QX52B is a set of Q58 humbuckers, specifically designed for headless guitars to deliver a clearly defined sound with excellent tonal balance across all frequencies. This model features the sophisticated dyna-MIX10 switching system with an Alter Switch, allowing you to access ten distinct sound variations. From high-output humbucking tones to realistic single-coil textures, the QX52B offers incredible versatility for any genre.
The hardware is designed for precision and reliability, featuring the Ibanez Mono-Tune bridge which provides a wide intonation range and easy tuning. The Ibanez Custom String Lock ensures quick string changes and rock-solid stability. With Luminescent side dots for low-light visibility and Mother of Pearl step off-set dot inlays, the QX52B is a forward-thinking instrument designed for the modern virtuoso.
Condition: This is a brand new Ibanez Q Series QX52B in Weathered Black. It includes Ibanez’s full manufacturer warranty and comes equipped with our Pro-Tech Setup, ensuring it arrives ready to play straight out of the bag. Drop Dee Guitars is an authorized Ibanez dealer.

I must say, I've had enough of mass sellers like SweetWater with their extra fees for everything that should be included as part of a guitar sale. Drop Dee Guitars exceeded my expectations by far with my order, ensuring that my instrument was a joy to play straight out of the box. I eagerly anticipate future business with this store. They are truly a shining star! Excellent communication throughout the pre-sale and after-sale as well. Thank you!
