Ibanez - S520AH-OBF Cosmic Blue Flat
The Ibanez S520AH-OBF Cosmic Blue Flat is a sculpted electric guitar with an ash body, designed to combine finesse with a lively sound. Its blue satin finish gives it a look that's as distinctive as it is meticulous. The Quantum humbucker duo, Wizard III profile maple screw neck and Edge-Zero II bridge all reflect a design focused on responsiveness and precision. With its 24 jumbo frets and 648 mm tuning fork, this Ibanez S is a responsive, fast and stylish playing machine. Its cosmo black hardware adds an obscure touch to an instrument built for efficiency. It's an invitation to get to grips with it, for those who want to riff without slowing down.
Presentation
The Wizard III neck on this Ibanez S520AH-OBF is a bit like your fingers signing a speed pact with the wood. Made from maple, it has a slim D-shaped profile, designed for express solos and technical strumming.
With its 24 jumbo frets and well-balanced rosewood fingerboard, this guitar never slows you down, even when you're attempting flights worthy of a Sunday at the amphitheatre.
The Quantum HH pickups fitted to the Ibanez S520AH-OBF don't mess around. They track the most jerky riffs, deliver fast bass and tighten the treble like a scalpel.
The 5-position selector lets you alternate textures and attacks, without requiring a degree in sound engineering. No need to take your word for it, just plug it in and see how your amp holds up.
The Edge-Zero II tremolo doesn't just look good. In fact, it keeps your tuning stable even after a few uncontrolled dive bomb stunts. Its low structure adds comfort to the right hand, while the locking system ensures peace of mind. It's the kind of bridge you'd like to find on every guitar when you solo.
The cosmo black hardware on the Ibanez S520AH-OBF Cosmic Blue Flat doesn't just embellish the beast, it perfectly matches its dark, muscular aesthetic. The oil-bath tuners do their job without flinching, while the D'Addario .009/.042 strings fitted as standard give it an immediate response, without having to get out the nail file.

This model will suit both fast metalheads and more progressive riff technicians.
To complete your Ibanez S520AH-OBF, don't forget to invest in a well-padded case, a tuner so you don't lose your bearings, and why not a good analogue overdrive to make your Quantum vibrate just right.
A stable stand and a few spare sets of 9/42 strings won't go amiss either.
