Product Description
The Ibanez Premium AZ Bernth Signature Model, the BER10, is a masterclass in modern electric guitar design, tailored to the virtuosic demands of Austrian guitarist and YouTuber Bernth. This guitar effortlessly balances supreme playing comfort with versatile tonal options, making it ideal for players who require precision and adaptability across a wide range of styles. Built around a sleek AZ-style alder body and a meticulously sculpted, heat-treated maple neck, the BER10 offers a seamless playing experience that encourages speed and fluidity.
At the heart of the BER10’s sonic versatility are the multi-voice Fishman Fluence Bernth active humbuckers, which deliver a broad palette of tones from sparkling cleans to aggressive, razor-sharp distortion. Complemented by Gotoh hardware including a T1502 tremolo and locking machine heads, this guitar is built for expressive playing, allowing you to bend, dive-bomb, and twist notes with confidence and stability. The fast-playing ebony fingerboard with jumbo stainless steel frets and reverse shark tooth inlays adds both style and functionality, while the matte black finish ensures you look as good as you sound.
Whether you’re tackling intricate legato runs, precise alternate picking, or dynamic stage performances, the Ibanez BER10 is designed to elevate your playing to new heights. Once in your hands, its combination of comfort, speed, and tonal flexibility will make it an indispensable part of your rig.
Heat-Treated Maple Neck
The patented S-Tech process used on the BER10’s maple neck enhances stability, durability, and resistance to environmental changes. Its comfortable Oval C shape and smooth fingerboard edges provide a natural feel that supports fast, effortless playing across the entire fretboard.
Fishman Fluence Bernth Pickups
These signature active humbuckers offer three distinct voices, capturing Bernth’s full stylistic range from pristine cleans to powerful, biting distortion. Their innovative design ensures clarity and dynamic response, making them perfect for players who demand tonal versatility.
Gotoh Hardware
The Gotoh T1502 tremolo system, combined with a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and MG-T locking tuners, delivers rock-solid tuning stability and precise intonation. This hardware setup allows for expressive techniques like dive-bombs and pitch bends without sacrificing tuning reliability.
Elegant Design and Playability
The AZ-style alder body and satin polyester matte black finish create a visually striking instrument that eschews aggressive metal aesthetics for a more refined look. The ebony fingerboard with reverse shark tooth inlays adds a touch of flair, while the overall design ensures a smooth, ergonomic playing experience.
