Description
Ibanez S1070PBZ Premium Guitar – Charcoal Black Burst B-Stock
The S1070PBZ Premium delivers an exceptionally lightweight, ultra-responsive playing experience defined by its multi-wood construction and precision engineering. The Wizard 11-piece neck provides unmatched stability and comfort, while the Edge-Zero II tremolo with ZPS3Fe ensures rock-solid tuning for both studio work and demanding live performance. This B-Stock unit carries minor cosmetic wear—a small finish dent and scratches at the bridge cavity—but has been professionally inspected and confirmed to have no impact on playability, structural integrity, or tone.
Neck Feel & Fretwork
The Wizard 11-piece Panga Panga/Maple/Walnut/Bubinga neck feels fast and stable in your hands with a bolt-on joint and 15.75-inch fretboard radius, while the Rosewood fretboard contributes warmth and focused midrange response. 24 Jumbo Stainless Steel frets with premium edge treatment keep your lines singing and smooth across the entire neck, and Mother of Pearl off-set dot inlays with luminescent properties stay visible under stage lights and in the studio alike.
Live Tone & Sonic Character
The DiMarzio Air Norton (neck), True Velvet (middle), and The Tone Zone (bridge) pickup set covers serious ground—warm, articulate cleans that cut through a mix, tight aggressive rhythms for high-gain work, and expressive leads that respond to your touch. The African Mahogany body with a 16.5mm exotic top featuring Poplar Burl, Walnut, Curly Maple, and Panga Panga rings with singing sustain and tonal richness across all registers, while the Gloss Polyurethane finish holds up to the rigors of the road and looks stunning under stage lights.
