Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Designed as Paul Gilbert’s Ibanez signature model, the right-handed PGM50 is a black, gloss-finished solidbody electric with a basswood body, maple/walnut neck, and rosewood fingerboard. Its DiMarzio Air Classic pickup combines vintage voicing with modern technology and is described as touch-sensitive, while the PGM middle single-coil blends vintage and modern sounds. Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads are built around tuning stability and quicker string changes. The F106 bridge supports sustain and allows each string height to be adjusted independently.
