Over several years, Wes Hauch partnered with Ibanez to develop a signature model built without compromise. The result is a guitar crafted to match the expectations and reputation of a guitarist at the forefront of modern metal playing. Inspired by the classic Iceman model, the Ibanez ICWH727 is a flagship signature model offering Ibanez's highest level of design, quality and craftsmanship.

For many years, Wes has chosen Ibanez as his brand of choice, delivering defining sounds in the metal genre with his own band Alluvial, while also playing with acts such as The Faceless, The Black Dahlia Murder, Devin Townsend and Thy Art Is Murder.
