A headless electric guitar with balanced tone and sleek playability.
The Ibanez Q52FMG electric guitar represents the cutting edge of modern instrument design, part of the innovative Quest series built entirely from the ground up as a true headless platform. With a flamed maple top over an ash body, a roasted maple/bubinga Wizard C neck and custom Q58 humbuckers, it balances sleek aesthetics with versatile tonal power. A newly engineered Mono-Tune bridge and proprietary string lock ensure rock-solid stability, while the dyna-MIX10 switching system unlocks 10 distinct pickup voices. Lightweight, ergonomic and visually striking, the Q52FMG is designed for players ready to push the limits of technique, tone and creativity.
Flamed Maple Top and Ash Body Blend Beauty and Resonance
The Q52FMG's flamed maple top offers stunning visual appeal, with its vivid figuring adding depth and character to the guitar's sleek, modern silhouette. Beneath the surface, an ash body provides a lively tonal foundation, delivering articulate highs and rich sustain that respond dynamically to both clean and high-gain playing. Together, the ash and maple construction balances clarity with warmth, making the guitar equally suited to tight riffing, fluid leads or lush, textured chords. Lightweight and comfortable, this body design also enhances portability, ensuring players can perform with confidence whether on stage, in the studio or on the move.
Wizard C Roasted Maple/Bubinga Neck Maximizes Comfort and Stability
The three-piece Wizard C neck combines roasted maple and bubinga for exceptional durability and tuning stability. Its neutral carve is designed to suit a wide variety of playing styles—not too flat, not too thick—making it equally comfortable for chord work, shredding and technical runs. The roasted birdseye maple fretboard adds both exotic looks and tonal richness, while stainless steel jumbo frets provide effortless bending, quick articulation and long-lasting reliability. From blazing solos to intricate tapping passages, this neck ensures smooth playability and enduring comfort, giving guitarists a foundation that inspires confidence in every performance.
Q58 Pickups and dyna-MIX10 Switching Unlock Sonic Versatility
Designed specifically for the headless Q series, the Q58 humbuckers provide a perfectly balanced tonal response across all frequencies. Their low-noise performance and articulate clarity ensure that every note, even within complex chords, rings out distinctly. The dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter Switch adds an impressive range of versatility, offering 10 unique tonal variations that span from thick, high-output humbucking roar to convincing single-coil sparkle. Whether paired with digital modeling rigs or classic tube amps, this system makes the Q52FMG an incredibly adaptable instrument, capable of tackling genres from progressive metal and fusion to funk, jazz and beyond.
Mono-Tune Bridge and Custom String Lock Ensure Reliable Performance
Ibanez's Mono-Tune bridge and proprietary string lock bring stability and simplicity to the Q52FMG's headless design. Each Mono-Tune saddle offers independent intonation and height adjustments, supporting drop tunings with ease while enhancing resonance for a more organic tone. The streamlined string lock system allows fast, tool-free string changes without requiring special strings, keeping maintenance minimal and reliable. Combined with luminescent side dots for easy visibility on dark stages, these hardware innovations make the Q52FMG as practical as it is cutting-edge, giving modern players the dependable foundation they need for both demanding live sets and intensive studio sessions.
A Forward-Thinking Guitar for the Modern Player
The Ibanez Q52FMG electric guitar is a forward-thinking instrument that redefines what a headless guitar can be. Its striking flamed maple top, fast and comfortable Wizard C neck, versatile Q58 pickups and next-generation hardware create a package designed for serious musicians seeking precision, portability and sonic variety. Perfect for progressive, technical and genre-defying players, this Quest series model invites guitarists to explore new musical territory with confidence. With its combination of innovative engineering and Ibanez's legendary performance focus, the Q52FMG offers not just a guitar, but a platform for unlocking creativity at the highest level.
