Ibanez Ibanez LB1 Lari Basilio Signature Model in Violet

Presenting the all new Ibanez LB1 Lari Basilio Signature Model in Violet, one of Ibanez's newest signature models based on their AZ series of guitars. Lari Basilio was born into a musical household in São Paulo, Brazil. At the age of 4 she started studying organ and later, at the age of 8 her father taught her first chords on an acoustic guitar. That's when she fell in love with the guitar. In 2011, Lari started working on her instrumental five-song Extended Play (EP), named, simply, Lari Basilio, which features Felipe Andreoli, bass player of Angra. The EP was produced by five-time Latin Grammy winner Lampadinha. In January 2021 Lari Basilio released, in partnership with Ibanez Guitars, her first signature guitar, the Ibanez LB1. The guitar also features the Lari Basilio signature pickups developed in partnership with Seymour Duncan. Some of the Features of the LB1: Oval C S-TECH WOOD Roasted Birdseye Maple neck The S-TECH special roasted treatment increases the wood's stability, durability, water resistance and tolerance of temperature changes. The neck is sealed with an oil finish which helps make it feel similar to a well-played guitar neck. Gotoh® Magnum Lock w/H.A.P. machine heads GOTOH® MAGNUM LOCK® machine heads have an established reputation for tuning stability. Its H. A. P® (Height Adjustable Post). system allows for the adjustment of string posts for the appropriate tension of each string. S-TECH WOOD Roasted Birdseye Maple fretboard The S-TECH special roasted treatment provides a superior attack, a well-balanced tone and a rich sustain. In order to achieve supreme neck grip comfort, the fretboard edge is finished with a smooth curve. Compound Radius Fretboard (228mm to 305mm) Offering the best of both worlds, the digitized compound radius fretboard is built to enhance both smooth chording and lead work in the upper register. Seymour Duncan® Lari Basilio S-S-H pickups Lari’s signature set of pickups by Seymour Duncan feature 3 pickups that are each unique to each other, but also combine to make the perfect combo. The neck pickup is a mix of Alnico 5 and Alnico 4 magnets that combine for vintage tone with a lot of body and presence, while the middle pickup is a special mix of Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets to help create more tonal options, as well as very unique look. Lari’s bridge position humbucker features Alnico 5 magnets and is voiced to be versatile and well balanced, focusing on attack and clarity over a wide range of tones from clean to high gain. For the type of player that Lari strives to be, having a versatile tone is essential, and these pickups always deliver. Gotoh® T1702B tremolo The T1702B tremolo bridge provides quick response and improved articulation. The 10.5mm string spacing allows for easy picking across strings and its snap-in construction makes it easy to load a tremolo arm. The tremolo block and saddles are made of brass, facilitating better overall resonance. dyna-MIX9 switching system with Alter Switch The dyna-MIX 9 offers nine sound variations and can switch between humbucker and single coil modes with just a flick of the mini switch. One mode even simulates a humbucking sound from the combination of two single coil pickups.
