IKEBE 50th Anniversary Limited Edition A special anniversary model commemorating the 50th anniversary of Ikebe Musical Instruments. ◆Selected Premium Tochi Top The body top is made of special premium horse chestnut wood, selected by Ikebe staff from a stock of wood carefully chosen by craftsmen at Asuka Factory. The back is made of the classic and popular alder wood. The horse chestnut wood provides a clear sound with distinctive mid-to-high frequencies, and the alder wood provides a rich midrange, resulting in a practical sound that can handle a variety of genres. ◆Based on the corporate color of Ikebe Musical Instruments, red, this guitar features a beautiful gradient color based on Ikebe's corporate color, red, applied by skilled painters. Furthermore, it features a matching headstock, making it a special 50th-anniversary limited edition model that allows you to fully appreciate the exquisite wood grain and coloring. ◆Ebony Fingerboard: This guitar features ebony fingerboard, known for its deep black, luxurious look. Compared to standard rosewood, it is heavier, resulting in a quick attack, a well-defined tone, and extended sustain. ◆The wider horn section enhances playability in the higher positions. The MC model has a larger cutout in the horn section on the treble string side compared to the traditional ST type. This improves playability in the higher positions, and allows players with large hands to comfortably ascend to the higher frets. ◆Recessed joint plate processing: While employing an orthodox plate joint to avoid compromising the traditional sound characteristics, the plate section has been recessed to improve playability. ◆Wood binding to prevent fingerboard problems: The sides of the fingerboard are fitted with wood binding made from the same material as the fingerboard. This makes the sides of the fretboard very smooth and also prevents problems such as fret burrs sticking out. ◆Wide-width rod adjustment: The uniquely shaped headstock features a wide adjustment hole that allows for smooth neck adjustment. The shape has also been made wider to allow for easier adjustment. ◆Momose VS-1 pickup It is equipped with Momose's original pickup, the 'VS-1'. With the crispness characteristic of single-coil pickups and modern ease of use, this pickup is tuned to deliver a tone that can handle a variety of musical genres.
