Ibanez S (Sabre) Series Guitars – S570 and S540

A recent exchange of posts entitled Ibanez Porn for your enjoyment on thegearpage.net leads me to upload pictures of my Ibanez S570 and a fellow forumite’s S540. Here they are in all their pictorial splendor for you to ogle.

The S guitar features the Super Wizard neck which is quite flat and very good for shredding, and of course a locking FR tremolo. It’s all you need for Metal. The last shot of my four shows the 570 nestling up close with my THD Univalve head and Marshall cab (since departed).

    Hello all,
    I was just talking via email to a chap called Simon here in the UK who has an S540 so I came looking for a picture to see how it differs from the S370DX that I am selling on Ebay.
    I told Simon it looks like they are made of Koa wood, but wasn’t certain.
    I would buy one if they made a hard tailed version!
    Nice guitars!

  10. Man Where can I find an Ibanez S570 with that finish!?

  11. You can only find them used now – they have been out of production for several years now.

  12. I have an unused S570 as on photo’s above complete with scratch/dust protectors still in place and the inspction label hanging from the neck! Serial number F0041812. Any interest anyone?

  13. I have a question. Where can I find an Ibanez S470SOL? That’s my dream Ibanez and I haven’t had luck in finding them. If possible, email me at rs_music_2002@yahoo.com. Anything would be helpful.
