Ibanez IC420-GD Iceman Gold

Ibanez IC420 Iceman Electric Guitar With Classic Cult Design!

The Ibanez IC420 Iceman pairs a striking body shape with classic set-neck construction, Super 80 humbuckers and gold-colored hardware. That gives you an expressive electric guitar for rock, alternative, hard rock, indie, classic tones and modern riffs—distinctive in looks and immediate to play.

Iceman Shape With a Long Ibanez History

The Iceman is one of the most distinctive designs in the Ibanez lineup and has been a staple in many guitar collections since the late 1970s. Its flowing lines, characteristic silhouette and powerful presence make it a highly recognizable electric guitar. The IC420 continues this tradition with player-oriented features and targets players looking for an instrument with cult status, solid build and versatile humbucker tone.

Okoume Body and Set-Neck

The Okoume body provides a lightweight, resonant foundation with quick response and balanced tonal behavior. It’s paired with a three-piece Okoume neck that’s glued to the body for a close connection. This construction supports sustain, direct vibration transfer and a harmonious playing feel. The IC neck profile sits comfortably in the hand and offers enough substance for powerful chords while remaining comfortable for fluid licks, lead lines and rhythmic playing during long sessions.

Jatoba Fretboard With 22 Medium Frets

The bound Jatoba fretboard offers a durable playing surface with clear response and a pleasant feel. The 12" fretboard radius supports precise chording, controlled melody playing and clean bends. With 22 medium frets you get a classic playing range suitable for riffs, leads, chord work and solo phrases alike. The acrylic & abalone block inlays provide good orientation on the neck and underscore the instrument’s premium character.

Super 80 Humbuckers for Powerful Sounds

Two Super 80 humbuckers deliver the sound character you expect from an Iceman: punchy, warm, assertive and versatile. The neck pickup is ideal for full leads, singing solos and rounded cleans, while the bridge pickup offers more attack, definition and bite for riffs and compact rock tones. Two volume and two tone controls let you shape each pickup independently. The 3-way switch enables quick shifts between neck, both and bridge positions, making the IC420 flexible for a variety of musical situations.

Gibraltar Performer Bridge and Quik Change III Tailpiece

The Gibraltar Performer bridge provides a stable seating surface, reliable intonation and a comfortable palm rest. Combined with the Quik Change III tailpiece it creates a solid, direct hardware setup with clear string guidance and fast response. Ibanez machine heads, a plastic nut and the factory .010/.013/.017/.026/.036/.046 string set complete the hardware. The 24.75" scale delivers a familiar, slightly loose feel and makes chords, bends and lead phrases comfortably controllable. With the gigbag the guitar is ready to go for rehearsal, lessons, stage and studio.
