Description
The Ibanez MGFM10 Manuel Gardner Fernandes Signature in Obsidian Black Low Gloss is built for players who want precision, speed, and something a little outside the norm. Designed with Manuel's percussive, genre-blending style in mind, it's a great fit for intermediate to advanced players looking to push boundaries-especially if you're into progressive metal, fusion, or experimental guitar work. The sleek, stripped-back look and feel also means it's right at home whether you're on stage or in the studio.
Loaded with a pair of passive Q58 ceramic humbuckers, a roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard, and a roasted Maple/Bubinga neck, this guitar gives you tight low-end, balanced mids, and clear highs with plenty of attack. The Ibanez Mono-Tune bridge keeps things super stable under heavy strumming or intricate tapping, and with 24 jumbo stainless steel frets on a 25.5" scale, you've got smooth, effortless access to everything you need. Plus, gold hardware against the Obsidian finish really ties it all together without being flashy.
The Parallel Wizard neck profile is thin, fast, and stays consistently slim all the way up, making it comfortable for long sessions or complex playing styles. It's lightweight, super well-balanced, and the stainless frets mean it'll stay feeling like new for a long time. We're really impressed with how dialed-in this guitar feels straight out of the box; it's a solid, dependable choice if you're ready for something different that can still handle anything you throw at it.
