Ibanez PGM50 Paul Gilbert Signature Electric Guitar - Black

Paul Gilbert is a musician who is difficult to categorize, from his early years with Racer X and Mr. Big to his varied solo career and position as one of the world's top shredders. His passion for Ibanez instruments has remained steady over the vast majority of his career, though. The Ibanez Paul Gilbert Signature PGM50 features an exceptionally light American basswood body that beams with resonance and sustain, and was built from the ground up to fit Paul's demanding specifications. The PGM50's 5-piece maple neck and rosewood fingerboard are filled with a slew of high-performance features, including fast-playing medium frets and Ibanez's Premium fret edge treatment for a smooth, friction-free feel, as befits a virtuoso of Paul's caliber. Next, Paul's own highly varied musical range is precisely reflected by the PGM50's HSH Trio of Air Classic humbuckers and a middle-position PGM single-coil. Finishing touches include a hardtail F106 bridge in gold, Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, and Paul's distinctive faux F-hole finish in a complementary golden tint.
