Custom Seymour Duncan pickups deliver world-class tone

A leader in the realm of guitar pickups for decades, Seymour Duncan pickups are a favorite among our guitarists across many styles. The Ibanez FLATV2 is loaded with Josh's signature Seymour Duncan set, which combines a vintage-style neck pickup designed for increased output with a bridge pickup constructed with a mix of alnico magnet types to support Josh's unique musical voice.

Premium hardware for gig-ready reliability

Equipped with premium Gotoh hardware, the Ibanez FLATV2 is primed for a lifetime of reliable performance. At the headstock, Gotoh tuning machine heads provide impressive tuning precision and an ultra-smooth feel. The Gotoh F1803 bridge maximizes sustain and tuning stability.
