The Ibanez S5528LW Prestige 8-string electric guitar features an exotic African black limba capped mahogany body and super-rigid Ibanez Ultra-8 neck -- constructed of five, glued, solid pieces of maple/wenge -- to accommodate 27" scale string tension, and maintain superior tone and sustain. Electronics include a pair of US made DiMarzio D Activator 8 high-output pickups for strong, percussive, low notes with balanced highs that "cut" without being "piercing." A 5-way switch allows for a variety of tone options. The original low-profile Gibraltar Standard II-8 Bridge, designed for precise intonation adjustment, playing comfort, and great sustain, combine with super smooth Gotoh MG-T locking tuners for superior tuning stability.

As the crown jewel of Ibanez, the Prestige line represents the passion and pride of Japanese luthiery.

Combine this with the legendary Ibanez S body style, and you have an instrument that defines the Ibanez mission of quality, innovation and design.
