The Ibanez Xiphos was launched in 2007. Since then, it has evolved to satisfy the guitarists seeking an instrument with both a radical

appearance, and a sound that matches the look. The Xiphos offers three models, the XPT700, XPT700XH, and XP300FX, each with different specs to choose from. XPT700 and XPT700X H apply neck-through-

body construction, which enhances playing comfort at higher frets and increases sustain. XPT700XH also has an extended 27 fret neck, taking the shredding abilities to the max. XP300FX features the XPT’s DNA, yet at an affordable price. The fixed bridge helps transmit string vibration to the body directly and the reversed headstock makes the guitar more distinctive.

Ibanez guitars are everywhere in today’s heavy metal scene. Countless players have had them in their hands, played them on stage and written countless songs on them. However today’s music, even looking at heavy metal alone, has been

broadened and demands guitars with as much variety as the music itself. Keeping that in mind, Ibanez introduces these brand new guitars, developed through day to day

communication with artists, which combine originally designed shapes with killer tone and playability. The Ibanez X-series are designed for players aiming to have guitars on the cutting edge. Together with the Xiphos, which has already been welcomed into the scene, the three new blades, Halberd, Falchion and Glaive are unveiled, to help you break into the new world.

CAP-LZ10/20 are newly developed active pickups. They deliver high-power sound that cuts through, while minimizing noise even at high gain settings. The CAP-LZ pickups cover a very wide range, and offer a strong rich middle tone for fast and heavy rhythm and lead playing.

String-Thru setup on the XG300, with its solid mahogany body, provides heavy tone, tighter string tension and maximum sustain.

The DiMarzio® D Activator™ pickups mounted on XPT700 have an enriched harmonic quality allowing notes to sing out. The D Activator™ pickups were designed to eliminate the sterile edginess commonly associated with active pickups.

The Original Edge tremolo has been admired by Ibanez players, and the Edge III embodies all of the classic function of the original Edge with some modern updates. It features lower profile fine-tuners, much like the Lo-Pro Edge. There are also two screws in the arm pocket for easy adjustment of the arm height and torque.

Neck-thru construction on the XPT700 provides massive sustain and playing comfort. A smooth heel at the neck joint position allows for comfortable playing at higher fret positions.

The wicked XPT700XH features a shred-friendly 27 fret neck, with warm sounding DiMarzio® Air Norton S™ pickup on the neck position.

A goal of ergonomic design” w ould describe the FALCHION the best. The FALCHION is recommended for those who seek identity, because this shred machine

has a striking and unforgettable look. However, you w ill never be able to tell how com fortable it is to play from its extrem e appearance. The Ibanez original Edge III double locking trem olo guarantees tuning stability even under aggressive trem olo use. The original CAP active pickups are m ounted for heavy, yet easy to control, sound. Available colors are “BLACK FLAT (BKF)” for the classic m etal vibe, and “Red Iron Oxide (RIX)”, where the red bu nish emphasizes the body shape.

Despite its demo nic appearance, the GLAIVE will surprise you w ith its solid form and com fortable ergonomics. Its high-performance

playability works perfectly for young m usicians longing for an extrem e shaped axe. The killer tone, w ith roaring low end, com es from the CAP active pickups mo unted in both neck and bridge positions, along w ith the string-through-body construction. Available colors are the glossy “DARK NIGHT BLACK (DNK)” and the pure “SNOW WHITE (SWW)”. The GLAIVE w ill satisfy your need for aggressive style and sound. XH300-LSH

appearance, and a sound that matches the look. The Xiphos offers three models, the XPT700, XPT700XH, and XP300FX, each with different specs to choose from. XPT700 and XPT700X H apply neck-through-

body construction, which enhances playing comfort at higher frets and increases sustain. XPT700XH also has an extended 27 fret neck, taking the shredding abilities to the max. XP300FX features the XPT’s DNA, yet at an affordable price. The fixed bridge helps transmit string vibration to the body directly and the reversed headstock makes the guitar more distinctive.

Ibanez guitars are everywhere in today’s heavy metal scene. Countless players have had them in their hands, played them on stage and written countless songs on them. However today’s music, even looking at heavy metal alone, has been

broadened and demands guitars with as much variety as the music itself. Keeping that in mind, Ibanez introduces these brand new guitars, developed through day to day

communication with artists, which combine originally designed shapes with killer tone and playability. The Ibanez X-series are designed for players aiming to have guitars on the cutting edge. Together with the Xiphos, which has already been welcomed into the scene, the three new blades, Halberd, Falchion and Glaive are unveiled, to help you break into the new world.

27 fret feature on XPT700XH

CAP-LZ10/20 are newly developed active pickups. They deliver high-power sound that cuts through, while minimizing noise even at high gain settings. The CAP-LZ pickups cover a very wide range, and offer a strong rich middle tone for fast and heavy rhythm and lead playing.

String-Thru setup on the XG300, with its solid mahogany body, provides heavy tone, tighter string tension and maximum sustain.

The DiMarzio® D Activator™ pickups mounted on XPT700 have an enriched harmonic quality allowing notes to sing out. The D Activator™ pickups were designed to eliminate the sterile edginess commonly associated with active pickups.

The Original Edge tremolo has been admired by Ibanez players, and the Edge III embodies all of the classic function of the original Edge with some modern updates. It features lower profile fine-tuners, much like the Lo-Pro Edge. There are also two screws in the arm pocket for easy adjustment of the arm height and torque.

Neck-thru construction on the XPT700 provides massive sustain and playing comfort. A smooth heel at the neck joint position allows for comfortable playing at higher fret positions.

The wicked XPT700XH features a shred-friendly 27 fret neck, with warm sounding DiMarzio® Air Norton S™ pickup on the neck position.
