Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Very Good

SP Luthier Notes: The finish on the neck was redone.

The 1981 Ibanez Iceman is a bold, vintage solidbody that delivers thick, powerful tone with plenty of sustain. Its mahogany body and maple top create a strong, balanced voice with warm lows and clear, cutting highs. The 3-piece maple neck and ebony fingerboard offer a fast, solid playing feel, while the original humbuckers provide full, punchy tones that handle everything from clean to heavy drive. With its distinctive shape and gold hardware, it carries serious visual presence. Strong, articulate, and full of character, this Iceman offers a tone that feels both aggressive and refined.
