Product Description
Ibanez K7YANG Brian "Head" Welch Signature 7-String Electric Guitar – Matte White - B-Stock
The Ibanez K7YANG is the signature seven-string electric guitar of Brian "Head" Welch, guitarist for Korn. Built for heavy rhythm playing and precise note definition, the K7YANG combines a solid okoume body, maple top, DiMarzio Blaze humbuckers, and an EverTune bridge in a distinctive Matte White finish.
The solid okoume body features a maple top and a satin finish. Its five-piece maple/walnut neck uses Ibanez's Wizard II-7 profile, providing a slim playing feel suited for fast riffs, extended chord shapes, and technical lead work. The bolt-on neck is paired with a rosewood fingerboard featuring a 16" radius, 24 jumbo nickel frets, and a distinctive K7 special inlay.
A pair of DiMarzio Blaze humbuckers delivers the powerful output and note clarity needed for extended-range playing. Designed for seven-string guitars, these pickups provide defined low-end response for heavy riffs while maintaining articulation across the higher strings. A master volume control and three-way blade pickup selector keep the electronics straightforward.
The EverTune bridge is designed to maintain consistent string tension and tuning stability, making it particularly useful for aggressive rhythm playing and recording. Gotoh tuning machines complete the hardware setup, while the 25.5" scale length provides a familiar playing feel.
Finished in Matte White with satin appointments, the Ibanez K7YANG combines the signature styling of Brian "Head" Welch with the hardware and electronics needed for modern seven-string performance. A gig bag is included.
