A headless electric guitar engineered for revolutionary tone and playing comfort.
The Ibanez Q Standard delivers a modern edge to your tone. With a Pale Moon Ebony top and Nyatoh body, this innovative headless electric guitar provides balanced warmth and projection. Its 3-piece Roasted Maple and Bubinga neck offers a neutral feel and rock-solid stability. The ebony fingerboard produces tight lows and a strong high-end attack for technical playing. Jumbo EVOgold frets grant a smooth playing feel with gorgeous looks.
Innovative Construction Maximizes Playability
The Q Standard features a Wizard C 3-piece roasted maple and bubinga neck for stability and durability. Its flat, thin profile feels fast and familiar in your hands. An ebony fingerboard offers a smooth playing surface, while jumbo frets provide a familiar feel for string bends and vibrato. With its compact, lightweight nyatoh body and headless design, the Q Standard balances perfectly in any playing position.
Powerful yet Balanced Pickups
The Q58 humbucking pickups are designed specifically for headless guitars. They deliver a powerful yet balanced tone across the full tonal spectrum. The low end is full without muddiness and the highs are crisp and defined without harshness. Every note rings through with clarity so you can hear all the nuances in your playing. These low-noise pickups pair perfectly with digital and analog effects for sculpting your ideal sound.
Innovative Bridge Provides Natural Resonance
The Mono-Tune bridge offers a wide range of intonation so you can drop tune with ease. Its minimal saddle design enhances resonance for an organic tone. String height is also highly adjustable for your perfect setup. This innovative bridge provides a natural, resonant voice not found in typical fixed bridges.
Simple Yet Durable Locking Nut
The custom locking nut is a one-piece unit with a straightforward design. It requires little maintenance, is highly durable and allows for fast string changes. No proprietary strings are needed either so you can continue using your preferred brand and gauge. This nut securely locks your strings in place as you play for maximum tuning stability and tone.
Ergonomic Shape and dyna-MIX Switching
The QX's inward-angled frets are ergonomically contoured for technical playing. The dyna-MIX10 switching system offers 10 pickup combinations to explore. Easily switch between humbucking and single coil-like tones with the mini-switch. Power Tap mode delivers a convincing single coil sound from the dual humbuckers. Between the dyna-MIX10 system and Q58 pickups, a world of tones is at your fingertips.
