EGEN - Herman Li

Ibanez Effects
When DragonForce guitarist Herman Li wanted a guitar that could handle his otherworldly technique and musicality, both he and Ibanez knew it would take time to get everything just right. It took three years but we did get it more than right...these models are perfect for ultimate shredding.

EDGE III TREMOLO
The new Edge III is similar in construction and feel to the original Edge locking trem; however, it also features lower profile fine-tuners inspired by the Lo-PRO Edge and massive new-design saddles.
FEATURES   (click to enlarge)
The Edge III features two screws in the arm pocket, which allow easy adjustment of the arm height and torque.
In the last two decades, no other guitar maker besides Ibanez has done so much to advance the art and science of the tremolo. The Edge III represents the next phase in locking tremolos.
