Ibanez Xiphos XPTB720-BKF Iron Label

Product Description

Not only does this new lineup represent a brand new beginning for Iron Label, but it also brings with it the long awaited return of two Ibanez fan favorites: the iconic Iceman, and the much request Xiphos. Both guitars signify the commitment of Ibanez to the metal genres, and we could choose no more fitting a return for these two, heralded guitars than the newly revamped Iron Label series.

– Iron Label –
The Iron Label line was originally developed with metal and nothing but metal in mind. We modded and tweaked until we got to the heaviest-hitting metal axes we’ve ever built. They’re purposefully spartan, and you won’t find a feature here that doesn’t contribute directly to a bone rattling, earth shattering tones these guitars pump out. Carrying forward that same philosophy, the next generation of Iron Label guitars take this raw metal energy to a completely new level. They sport totally blacked out looks, and their supercharged electronics amounting to some of the heaviest-swinging metal axes we’ve ever produced.
