Benefiting from decades of evolution, theIBANEZ GIO GRG220PA1 BKB is an entry-level solid body electric guitar bursting with quality. Okoume body, poplar burr top, torrefied maple bolt-on neck, Purpleheart fingerboard, 24 frets, Classic Elite double bb pickups, traditional vibrato.

Used for decades by the maritime and aeronautical industries, Okoume (native to West Africa) is a species of choice for electric guitars (John Suhr used it for many years). This light / low-density wood can be considered a Mahogany with more pronounced high frequencies and a wide dynamic range, exacerbating the instrument's clarity. The fingerboard is made of Amaranth or Purpleheart. This is a high-quality species from South American forests. Its high density provides extended sustain, excellent dynamics and clarity. A compromise between Rosewood and Ebony.
