Other Features:
T-bar under-saddle pickupThe Ibanez under-saddle pickup reduces noise and provides wide range of natural piezo-style sound. It also captures palm hits and delivers a bass drum-like response.
Block contact pickupSince it’s placed on the neck block, the Ibanez contact pickup is resistant to feedback and evenly captures percussive sound from the body to the neck. It also adds air and brightness to the piezo-style sound by capturing acoustic tones from within the body.
Ibanez DP1 PreampThe DP1 Preamp naturally amplifies the signal from the Dual Pickups. You can precisely blend the sound of both pickups using the simple control layout (Under-saddle pickup volume / Contact pickup volume), which reduces added holes in the body to maintain tonal integrity.

Ibanez Advantageâ„¢ bridge pinsThese pins really are an advantage over old-fashioned pins. Advantageâ„¢ pins are easier to take out and easier to put in than standard pins. A special bulb-shaped end makes the pin easy to grip and also prevents the pin from being pushed in too far. Best of all, with Advantageâ„¢ the pin and string stay put.
