Ibanez Prestige KIKO100 6 String Electric Guitar Transparent Ruby Red
Kiko Loureiro is a killer guitarist. Whether he's playing metal or jazz fusion, Kiko's always spot on with his tone and technique, and his signature Ibanez electrics are spec'd to facilitate that level of uncompromised performance.
The KIKO100 gives you a modified, slightly thicker alder S body with a gorgeous flame maple top, and a custom-profile Prestige neck with rosewood fingerboard. The 'board is scalloped from the 19th-24th frets for easier high note bending and tapping. DiMarzio Kiko Original pickups in an HSH configuration deliver a universe of tone, while an Edge vibrato serves up silky whammy action.
From metal to jazz fusion, Kiko Loureiro nails it. His signature DiMarzio Kiko Original pickups (in an HSH configuration) are designed to do it all. The neck and bridge humbuckers have medium output and a balanced sound - similar to the PAF Pro, but with a bit more gain. The single-coil in the middle position is warmer sounding and more higher gain than a typical vintage single-coil, and it balances beautifully with the neck and bridge pickups.
You mix this heady HSH tonefest with a five-way blade, but here's where it gets real interesting: the recessed volume pot is a push-pull affair that gives you access to a staggering range of ten humbucking, single-coil, and coil combos.
