Ibanez MTM20 Mick Thomson - White

Engineered to Take No Prisoners

The Ibanez Mick Thompson Signature MTM20 solidbody electric guitar is designed with one thing in mind, to get heavy. From the Mick Thomson signature EMTY active humbuckers, to the locked-down Ibanez FX Edge III bridge, everything about Mick's signature guitar is intended to offer maximum output, punch, and agression. Even the look of this MTM20 is streamlined and sinister. Shipping from the factory in dropped-B tuning you'll be attaining gut-rattling riffs as soon as you get the guitar plugged in. For punishing metal, the Ibanez MTM20 will get the job done.

• Active pickups for the sonic devastation that is Slipknot
• Maximum sustain and note clarity thanks to the 5-piece neck construction
• Rock-solid tuning stability and precision via the FX Edge III Bridge

For high-output agression, Ibanez chose the Duncan HB-105MT active humbuckers to to offer all the rumbling lows, and screaming highs that you'll need for punching the front end of your amplifier like Mike Thompson. These alnico-based humbuckers dish out everything you love about active designs, and also give you clear top end when using clean tones. If his groundbreaking work with Slipknot is any indication, Mr. Thompson knows what monstrous metal tone is all about. So if these Duncan pickups are good enough for #7, they'll definitely get you killer metal tones.

Because of their typically thinner neck profiles, laminate neck wood construction has long been a highly-demanded feature in solidbody electric guitars designed for styles where fast playing is the name of the game. This Ibanez Mick Thompson MTM20 offers you this design method in a 5-piece maple/walnut construction. These hard woods make the neck extremely stable under punishing circumstances. Even with its frighteningly-fast Wizard III neck profile, your neck will stay secure and play great every time you pick up the guitar.

It's not too often you find a double-locking system on a fixed bridge. But that's exactly what you get on Mick Thompson's signature MTM20. Ibanez's FX Edge III bridge gives you all the ultra-stable tuning, and ability to get great precision with your intonation via the fine tuners of a locking tremolo design. And because it's fixed to the body of the MTM20 you also receive ultimate string-to-body string vibration transfer. When you get those strings locked in there they're not going anywhere, allowing all that energy to go into your pickups for maximum output and sustain.
