APEX - MUNKY(KORN)

With Korn, Munky took a 7 - seven string shred machine and turned it into a low-end bone crusher. His signature beast, The APEX, despite its lofty name, represents the darkness lurking at the bottom of the deepest well and harnesses the power at the lowest point of the pendulum.

APEX1-BIKER BLACK & APEX2-GREEN SHADOW FLAT

Innovation In Design

• A-D-G-C-F-A-D factory tuning for Munky's signature low-end crunch
• Made in Japan APEX1 features unique Biker Black textured finish
• Korn-designed U-bar trem (easily switchable to optional standard arm) allows radical effects without palming the fine tuners
• More affordable standard APEX2 designed for players who prefer hardtail

PAUL GILBERT

Just offering a reissue of the original model, the PGM100, or turning the "Iceman" upside down for an extremely limited addition, the Fireman, wasn't enough for Paul. The 2009 PGM401 is a wholly different animal. With one exception: it still has Paul's famous painted f-holes.

PGMFRM1

PGMFRM1 Fireman Precision made in Japan. The Japanese made Fireman is the Iceman's opposite with a revenrse Iceman body, korina wood instead of mahogany and single-coils instead of humbuckers. This very limited edition features extensive handwork. Includes deluxe accessories package and hardshell case.

PGM401

PGM401 Precision made in Japan. A different variation on the PGM signature theme with a light ash body instead of basswood and a bridge pickup that's closer to the neck for warmer tones in the lead position. The neck is thicker than a standard RG and features higher frets with a narrower fret width.

PGM100RE

HERMAN LI(DRAGON FORCE)

When DragonForce guitarist Herman Li wanted a guitar a that could handle his otherworldly technique and musicality, both he and Ibanez knew it would take time to get everything just right. It took three years. But they did get it right. The Ibanez E-Gen is played by Li exactly as it is, live on stage, in the studio, right off the shelf without any modifications.
