Up for sale, a 2009 Ibanez Prestige S5470 in exceptional, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Produced at the Fujigen factory in Japan, this Ibanez is part of the upscale Prestige line and features an exceedingly slim, contoured mahogany body, an HSH pickup complement, Super Wizard HP Prestige neck profile carve, a ZR2 tremolo with ZPS3 stabilizer, and a gloss Transparent Black Sunburst finish.
The HSH pickup complement features a pair of Hot Grinder humbuckers flanking a Short Tracer 2 single coil. The Hot Grinder humbuckers are high-output, particularly the Hot Grinder 2 bridge pickup, which features one screw pole coil and one blade coil. Both humbuckers are bold and aggressive, with big, tight low end and boosted mids tailored for high gain. The Short Tracer 2 single coil offers more power than a standard single coil, working well with the humbuckers when coil-tapped (positions 2 and 4 on the five-way switch). This Ibanez weighs 8lbs 4oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.
