Ibanez / Quest Series MGFM10-OBL Manuel Gardner Fernandes Signature Model [80]

The up-and-coming German guitarist Manuel Gardner Fernandez signature model makes its debut!
Ergonomic body design
Compact and light-weight, yet resonant body
Quilted Maple top Nyatohbody
The body is made of nyatoh wood, which has excellent mid-bass characteristics.
The body top and sides/back are painted in different colors, and a low gloss finish is applied for a luxurious feel.
Parallel Wizard 3pc Roasted Maple/Bubinga neck
The "Parallel Wizard neck" has a consistent neck thickness of 19mm throughout its length.
This provides surprisingly easy fingering and playability for players who hold the guitar high.
The 3pc construction of roasted maple and bubinga also provides excellent stability and durability.
Slanted frets
All frets are evenly slanted at an 8-degree angle. Many modern players tend to hold their guitars high in order to play advanced and complex techniques such as tapping, fingerstyle, and slapping techniques. When held high like this, the four fingers that press the strings naturally tilt slightly inward. The frets can be tilted to fit this, giving the guitar a more natural feel.
This is Manuel's favorite point.
Q58" H-H pickups
H-H arrangement of the "Q58" humbucker pickups developed for the "Q".
The pickups are designed to sound well-balanced in all bands so that the sound can be easily made up with effects pedals, etc. The low frequency range is powerful without being muddy, and the high frequency range is balanced with the low end. The low frequency range is powerful without being muddy, and the high frequency range is clear yet mellow. It is also low noise and works well with both digital and analog effects pedals.
The Q series has a gold-colored metal cover for the first time, giving it a glamorous appearance.
dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter Switch
The dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter Switch allows you to freely switch between humbucker mode and single coil mode with 10 different sound variations.
Custom string lock
