New Ibanez Paul Waggoner Signature

With the magnificent PWM100, Ibanez secures its place as the number one guitar brand among the rising stars of the shred and prog metal scene.

With competition as tight as the F1 and market unforgiving as the corners of the legendary Monaco Grand Prix race track, guitar brands have a tough time surviving, let alone thriving. But, some of the brands out there just have a knack for survival and can smell the victory even when it`s miles away. The ability to quickly assess the situation, good resource management, and sound strategic planning set the winners apart from losers, both on the race track and on the guitar market. And no brand knows it better than Ibanez. With a wave of high-quality young bands flooding the scene in recent years, only a handful of the daring and bold brands out there had the guts to heed the call and shift their focus to these young guns. Ibanez was one of them and it`s already paying back big time. With the introduction of the stellar PWM100 axe, Ibanez brings Between the Buried and Me`s lead guitarist Paul Waggoner into its stables. Paul`s unique style and awesome fingerboard skills have shaped an equally unique and awesome guitar. So, let`s take a closer look at this six-string speed demon.

Ibanez PWM100 is a solid-bodied six-string with passive electronics, bolt-on construction, and multi-laminated neck. The body is 44mm thick and it`s made of lightweight ash. This results in a bright and strong tone, as well as reduced strain on player`s shoulders. Super-fast maple/bubinga neck rocks a customized version of the famous Wizard profile in the back and a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard on top. Mojotone`s PW Hornet humbuckers are passive and have a dead simple controls unit made up of a volume knob, three-position pickup selector, and coil-splitting switch. PW Hornets give an edgy, dominant tone without being an overkill. Ibanez Edge tremolo system with a locking nut and die-cast tuners complete the list of major features.
