A Hard-rocking Axe with Timeless Visual Appeal

Thanks to its radical shape, the Iceman has long been one of Ibanez's most spotlight-ready models, so much so that Paul Stanley of the band Kiss has favored it for the bulk of his decades-long career. The Ibanez Iceman IC420FM is a prime example of this head-turning solidbody electric guitar. Carved from a solid slab of okoume, the IC420FM includes an attention-grabbing flamed maple top and a 3-piece set-in okoume neck, which gives it a brilliant, sustaining acoustic tone with truckloads of bite. Its Super 80 humbuckers are genuine scorchers, arming you with a bright PAF-inspired sound and enough output to give your amplifier a good spanking. This photogenic axe's performance-ready hardware consists of a Gibraltar Performer fixed bridge, a Quik Change III tailpiece, and Ibanez tuners. Gleaming gold hardware and a light-catching gloss polyurethane finish round out the inimitable Iceman IC420FM.

Head-turning Iceman styling

Boasting an Iceman-shaped okoume body with a stunning flamed maple top and a 3-piece set-in okoume neck, the IC420FM delivers a bright acoustic tone with ample sustain and a menacing bite that cuts through a busy mix effortlessly. Its jatoba fingerboard sports 22 medium-sized frets, supplying an outstanding platform for unleashing all your pent-up fretboard wizardry. The Iceman IC420FM sports eye-catching cream binding throughout, along with stunning acrylic and abalone parallelogram fingerboard inlays and a spotlight-ready gloss polyurethane finish.

Super 80 humbuckers are ready to rock

The Ibanez Iceman IC420FM is equipped with a set of the company's Super 80 humbuckers. These ceramic-loaded pups are piping hot, yielding an exquisite blend of power and fidelity. They're also potted to safeguard against unwanted microphonic squeals. No matter what you plug into, the IC420FM will churn out a bright, punchy sound with truckloads of articulation. Finally, these Super 80 humbuckers include chrome covers with eye-popping etched "flying finger" designs.

Near-bulletproof hardware

The guitarists here at Sweetwater have long been fans of the Iceman IC420FM's roadworthy design, especially its rock-solid hardware. This solidbody electric guitar comes equipped with a Gibraltar Performer bridge. This adjustable Tune-o-matic-style fixed bridge maximizes sustain while also allowing for precise, per-string intonation. The bridge is paired with a Quik Change III tailpiece that's built to withstand aggressive playing styles and makes string changes a piece of cake. You also get ultra-reliable Ibanez tuning machine heads.

Great guitar - exceeds expectations

I love this guitar. I have played an Ibanez Iceman for about 25 years. I have a vintage 1978 model (on the right in photo). I have wanted a new one for ages (so I don't have to play the old one, which is in rough shape). When I saw the IC420 release, I was hopeful but skeptical (made in China). I ordered a demo model and have been playing it now for several days. I could not be happier. It plays great and feels just like the vintage version in my hands. The pickups sound great and it stays in tune. Excellent quality all the way around. A great value at this price. A huge thanks to Ian my awesome Sales Engineer!
Music background: Played in rock bands, praise bands, and now mostly alone in my office, for over 40 years.
