The Ibanez Q547PB is a bold entry into the headless guitar world, blending modern ergonomic design with top-tier tonal flexibility and a stunning aesthetic. With a new demo now streaming featuring the technically fierce and musically expressive Runrun, this model shows off exactly what it was built to do – deliver jaw-dropping tone, clarity, and comfort for the most demanding players.
Finished in a sleek Cosmic Blue Low Gloss, the Ibanez Q547PB features a Poplar Burl top that highlights a swirling, exotic wood grain. Beneath that lies a Nyatoh body, chosen for its warm, rich mid-low response that adds depth to clean tones and punch to distortion. The body design is compact, lightweight, and ergonomically contoured, making it incredibly comfortable for extended playing sessions.
At the heart of the guitar’s playability is the Wizard C 5-piece neck, crafted from roasted maple and bubinga. This neck profile is designed with a neutral shape suited for a wide range of playing styles, from fast alternate picking to jazzy comping. The roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard is visually stunning and sonically bright, and with 24 jumbo stainless steel frets, the Ibanez Q547PB offers smooth bends, clear note definition, and long-term durability.
The Ibanez Q547PB is loaded with passive ceramic pickups: R1-7 single coils in the neck and middle positions, and a Q58-7 humbucker at the bridge. Specifically voiced for headless guitars, these pickups provide a perfectly balanced frequency response with low noise and excellent note separation. Whether you’re using analog stompboxes or dialing in tones from a digital rig, every note rings true without unwanted harshness or muddiness.
The electronics are powered by Ibanez’s dyna-MIX9 switching system with an Alter Switch. This setup gives players nine different tonal combinations, including humbucker and single-coil modes, and even a setting that simulates a humbucker using two single-coils.
Hardware is kept sleek and functional with a set of Mono-Tune bridges, each individually adjustable for intonation and string height, making down-tuning and custom setups easy. Add luminescent side dots for dark-stage visibility and a gig bag for portability, and you have a professional-grade instrument that’s both practical and powerful.
