IBANEZ KIKO300 KIKO LOUREIRO SIGNATURE RUBY RED SUNBURST FLAT

There is a mix of many different musical influences in Kiko Loureiro's playing style, so he needs a guitar to be well-rounded in order to cover everything he wants to do with the guitar. He and Ibanez worked for a long time, going over many different neck shapes and body shapes before deciding on what works best for him, and nailed it with the KIKO models.

- KIKO S-TECH WOOD Roasted Maple neck : The S-TECH special roasted treatment provides a superior attack, a well-balanced tone and a rich sustain. In order to achieve supreme neck grip comfort, the fretboard edge is finished with a smooth curve.

- Rosewood fretboard : The Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.

- Jumbo Stainless Steel frets with Prestige fret edge treatment : Stainless steel frets boast excellent corrosion resistance. The wide and tall fret type offers a quick response, good articulation when playing chords and clear tone when playing single notes. The Prestige Fret Edge Treatment guarantees effortlessly fast playing.

- Poplar Burl top / Alder body : The Poplar Burl top features an exotic wood grain and the Alder body delivers a well-balanced bright tone, enriched resonance and sustain.

- DiMarzio KIKO original pickups : Kiko plays a wide range of music, from metal to jazz fusion, and the pickups were designed to reflect this range of sound. The neck and bridge humbuckers have medium output and a balanced sound in terms of frequency response. The single-coil middle pickup is more powerful and warmer-sounding than a typical vintage single-coil in order to balance well with the neck and bridge pickups.

- Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads : The Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.

- Gotoh T1502 tremolo : The T1502 tremolo bridge features steel saddles and a die-cast zinc tremolo block for a quick response and improved articulation. The 10.5mm string spacing allows for easy picking across strings and its snap-in construction makes it easy to load a tremolo arm.

- Coil-tap switch : The coil tap switch adds sound and tonal variations for both pickups.

- Luminlay side dots : The Luminlay side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.

- Hardshell case included : Ibanez Hardshell case gives extreme protection for your beloved instrument.
