SWITCHING FUNCTION

The output level of the

instrument as well as the

quality of the signal can be

affected by the pickup height.

Pickup height should be

adjusted until the volume of

neck and bridge pickups are

almost equal with both

volumes wide open. The volume may drop drastically if the pickup

height is too low. As the pickups are magnetic, fret buzzing and

distortion may occur if the pickup is too close to the strings. Use a small

screwdriver to make adjustments to raise or lower the pickup.

*Instruments that have adjustable pole pieces can be adjusted to balance the output of each string.

PICKUPS

Ibanez steel string models are equipped with adjustable truss rods. The

purpose of a truss rod is to adjust the neck to counteract string tension.

There are many reasons for truss rod adjustments. One of the most

frequent reasons is changing string gauges or tuning pitch which can

affect string tension. String tension changes may affect the string height

and cause fret buzz or notes that don’t ring true. To adjust the truss rod,

locate the truss rod nut and adjust it by inserting the correct wrench into

the nut and tightening (clockwise) or loosening (counter clockwise) the

rod. Truss rod tension can be measured by installing a capo at the first

fret the holding the strings down at the fret position where the neck joins

the body. Insert a thickness gauge between the string and the fret at the

8th fret. There should

between 0.3 mm to 0.5mm

clearance. That clearance is

referred to as “neck relief.”

Too much neck relief can

cause the neck to have

higher action in the middle of

the neck causing poor

intonation and uncomfortable

playability. No neck relief can

cause fret buzz.

*Appropriate care must be taken when

adjusting the neck and we recommend only

qualified technicians perform this procedure.

NECK

Regular cleaning of your

guitar is one the most

important ways you can

maintain the finish and

lengthen string life. After

playing, wipe down your

instrument to remove any

perspiration from the

instrument. Perspiration can actually contain acids that can be corrosive

to the strings and metal parts of the guitar. Gloss finish guitars should be

polished with polish formulated specifically for musical instruments, and

a soft, treated guitar cloth or a cotton rag. Abrasive rags such as

polyester can scratch the finish. Oil finished guitars should be wiped

clean immediately after playing with a dry cotton rag only. If your guitar

has become discolored due to extended use or heavy perspiration,

factory appearance, see a qualified guitar repair person about methods

to restore the oil finish to its original factory appearance.

Maintenance ➣➣

Our congratulations and deepest thanks on

making Ibanez your choice of instrument. Ibanez

standards are second to none. All Ibanez

instruments are set up to our strict quality control

standards before shipping. The purpose of this

manual is to explain how to maintain your

instrument’s finish and to keep your guitar playing

as well as it did when it left our factory.

If strings become dirty, discolored, or produce a

dull sound or buzz, replace the strings with new

ones. For best results we recommend replacing

one string at a time, this will help to avoid

removing the string tension from the neck. When

replacing strings with different gauge strings, it

may be necessary to adjust the truss rod tension.

(We recommend only qualified technicians

perform this.) Instruments that have tremolo

systems installed may need to be adjusted after

string replacement as changes in string tension

can cause the tremolo to raise or lower. Ibanez

guitars and basses are factory equipped with the

following string gauges. Please follow the

instructions below for your particular model.

The strings should be tightly wound on to the

tuning machines from top to bottom with 2 to 3

string wraps around the post. In the case of

unwound guitar strings, the ends of the strings

should be prepared as shown in the diagram to

prevent unintentional slippage from the posts. In

the case of tuning machines, where the string

ends are inserted into the posts, the string can be

cut to length in advance using a pair of string

cutters.

If the tuning machines are sealed gear units, they

are self-lubricating types. The set screws for the tuning knob are

adjustment screws that can be tightened with a small Phillips head

screwdriver to increase the tension.

*The use of coarse strings may lead to buzzing and sound distortion. Using strings that have twists or kinks may

cause buzzing or decreased sustain. Make sure that the new strings are smooth and free from any defects

before installing.

Intonation adjustment is

the operation of

adjusting the location of

the string at the saddle

to compensate for

different string gauges

or different tunings.

Follow the instructions

of the particular bridge intonation below. Intonation is properly set when

the 12th fret note and the 12th fret harmonic are exactly the same note .

This is the center point of the scale and the most accurate way of setting

a standard scale length. With the harmonic note as the standard, if the

fretted note is flat move the bridge saddle forward toward the headstock

(a) to decrease the string length. If the fretted note is sharp, move it back

away from the headstock (b) to increase the string length intonation

adjustments.

*Please note that strings can be broken when the saddle is moved, so always loosen the strings before

making adjustments.

INTONATION

Ibanez guitar and bass string action is set at the

factory. However there are many reasons that an

instrument’s string height can change. Instruments

can be affected by changes in temperature and

moisture. High string action can make the guitar

difficult to play. If the string action is too low, fret

buzz or unclear notes can occur. To remedy this,

follow the instructions for the particular type of

bridge installed. In the case of string action, make

sure the guitar is in tune and the truss rod is adjusted properly. Ibanez

action is set at the 14th fret. The action may also need to be readjusted

after the neck has been adjusted or strings have been changed to a

different gauge. Follow the instructions in the relevant bridge manual to

make adjustments.

*If strings other than those described above are used, gradually increase the action clearance from the treble side

through to the bass side.

The Ibanez DOWNSHIFTER allows the pitch of a string to be dropped to a

preset desired position with a simple lever operation. To achieve precise

tuning for both the up and down positions, you will need to preset both

lever settings before operating the Downshifter.

PLEASE NOTE: The Downshifter device was designed to provide the

highest level of pitch accuracy. However, it should be understood that

the Downshifter is a mechanical device. Pitch variations and tuning

readjustments, especially after frequent use, are to be expected.

(C)

tuning screw clockwise to reduce the pitch,

or counter clockwise to raise the pitch. This

adjustment can be done by hand or with a

standard screwdriver or a coin until the

desired down pitch is acquired. (The preset

factory pitch is set one whole step down to

D.) When the lever is raised to the up

position, the thumbscrew can be turned

freely but will have no effect on the raised lever pitch. However, it will

affect the settings of down lever pitch.

TUNING

First check that the Downshifter lever arm is

raised to the up position then tune the string

normally using the standard tuning machines

on the headstock.

(Note: the Downshifter tuning screw has no

effect on the pitch in the up position.) Next,

lower the lever on the Downshifter to the down position and the pitch of

the string will drop down. Adjust the rear

SPECIAL TUNING

The Downshifter also allows the pitch to be raised by setting the standard

tuning while the lever is in the lower position. When the lever is raised the

pitch will also be raised and can be adjusted to the desired pitch.

ADJUSTING THE TREMOLO SPRING

The tremolo springs adjust the

tremolo angle by tightening or

loosening the tremolo tension. To

adjust tremolo angle, locate the

adjustment screws in the rear

tremolo cavity. The tremolo system

when in tune should sit parallel to

the surface of the guitar as follows.

If the tremolo system is not sitting

parallel to the surface of the guitar, remove the tremolo cavity cover

plate and tighten the Tremolo tension adjustment screws if the tremolo

is forward dumped. Loosen the screws if the tremolo is up-pulled.

Retune the strings to the proper pitch

and check the angle. Choose the number

and placement of the tremolo springs

according to the string gauge and the

tremolo angle.

REPLACING THE STRINGS

In the case of EDGE III tremolo, replace the

strings one by one. Removing all the old strings

at once will release the tension on the tremolo

and change the tremolo angle up-pull. Loosen“ ”

the Pressure pad screw (D) on the locking nut

and loosen the string to be replaced. Loosen the

String stopper screw (G) and remove the string

from the saddle. Cut off the ball end of new

ADJUSTING THE TREMOLO SPRING

The tremolo springs adjust the tremolo

angle by tightening or loosening the

tremolo tension. To adjust tremolo

angle, locate the adjustment screws in

the rear tremolo cavity. The tremolo

system when in tune should sit parallel

to the surface of the guitar as follows.

If the tremolo system is not sitting parallel to the surface of the guitar,

remove the tremolo cavity cover plate and tighten the Tremolo tension

adjustment screws if the tremolo is forward dumped. Loosen the screws

if the tremolo is up-pulled.Retune the

strings to the proper pitch and check the

angle. Choose the number and placement

of the tremolo springs according to the

string gauge and the tremolo angle.

ADJUSTING THE ACTION

To adjust the entire tremolo unit up or down,

use an Allen wrench to turn the stud bolt (E)

located at the left and right of the tremolo

unit. (This cannot be adjusted for each

individual string.)

FINE TUNING

Even after locking the locking nut, you can use

the fine tuners to make fine adjustments to the

tuning of each string. You should adjust all of

the fine tuners (C) to the center of adjustable

range before you lock the locking nut.

ARM ACTION

The tremolo arm action can be adjusted by

using a 3.0mm Allen wrench on the screw (B)

of the tremolo screw.

ARM ROTATION TORQUE

The rotation torque of the arm can be adjusted

by raising the tremolo and inserting a 1.5mm

loosen the arm torque.

ADJUSTING THE STRING HEIGHT (FAT20/FAT10/SAT10)

The height adjustment of the tremolo can be raised or lowered by

adjusting the pivot studs (C) that the tremolo mounts on. These are

located at either side of the front of the bridge. Clockwise lowers the

tremolo and counter clockwise raises the tremolo.

ADJUSTING THE STRING HEIGHT (SAT PRO)

To adjust the action of each

string, use a 1.5 mm Allen

wrench to turn the screw on the

saddle (C). The overall height

can be adjusted on either side

of the SAT PRO tremolo unit. To

adjust the height, use a 3 mm

Allen wrench to turn the stud (D)

located on either side of the

unit. Use caution when

adjusting the height of the entire tremolo unit; adjust both sides to the

same height to ensure optimum tremolo operation.

FAT/SAT (expect FAT6)

ADJUSTING THE TREMOLO SPRING

A standard tremolo can be adjusted

so that the pitch can be raised when

the tremolo arm is pulled up to

loosen the tremolo springs located

under the tremolo cavity on the back

of the guitar. One disadvantage of

this procedure is that it can cause

the pitch to go sharp if string breaks.

To remedy this, adjust the tremolo

plate so it sits flush on the body by

tightening the tremolo springs.

Choose the number and

placement of the tremolo

springs according to the string

gauge and the tremolo

adjustment .

cannot be adjusted for each

individual string.)

EDGE PRO II TREMOLO

REPLACING THE STRINGS

The EDGE-PRO II tremolo will accommodate

either strings from which the ball end has

been cut, or conventional strings from

which the ball end has not been cut.

To remove a string, use a 3 mm Allen

wrench to loosen the pressure pad screw of

the locking nut (Fig.1), remove the string

from the tuning machine, and use a 3 mm

Allen wrench to loosen the string stopper

screw of the saddle (Fig.2). Turning this

counter-clockwise will automatically retract

the holder block, so loosen the string stopper

screw all the way until the holder block

stops retracting. Remove the old string,

insert approximately 3 cm of the new string

with ball end into the saddle, and while

making sure that the string is positioned in

the center of the saddle, tighten the string

stopper screw (Fig.2). Turning this clockwise

will automatically advance the holder block,

so after making sure that the string is firmly

fastened, wind the string around the tuning

machine post, tune it, and then tighten the

pressure pad of the locking nut.

When installing a wound string from which the ball end has been cut off,

you can leave the overwound portion of the winding intact in order to

prevent the winding from loosening. Insert approximately 1~3 cm of the

tip into the saddle, and install the string in the same way as a

conventional string from which the ball end has not been cut off.

Since the attachment angle of the tremolo will change significantly if all

strings are removed at once, you should replace the strings one at a time.

On the bottom of each saddle there is a guide stopper that indicates the

length of string to be inserted. The appropriate length will be inserted if

you insert the string until the tip contacts this guide.

If a string breaks at the saddle, it may fall into the tremolo cavity when

you loosen the string stopper screw. Remove the broken string either by

detaching the tremolo spring cavity cover plate from the back of the

guitar, or from the opening in the cover plate. If the broken spring

remains in the saddle, remove it from above.

Note: Before you tune a string, make sure that the string stopper screw is firmly tightened.

Note: To prevent the string stopper screw from falling out, do not loosen it more than three

turns after the holder block has stopped retracting.

ADJUSTING THE INTONATION

Before you adjust the intonation, use a 3 mm Allen wrench to loosen the

pressure pad screws (G) of the locking nut so that the strings are

released. Use a 2 mm Allen wrench to loosen the saddle lock screws (F)

of each saddle, and move the saddle. Firmly tighten the saddle lock

screws, tune the guitar, and then check the intonation. Repeat these

adjustments until the intonation is correct, and then tighten the pressure

pad screws of the locking nut.

You may install each saddle lock screw in either the forward or rear

position, depending on the position of the saddle.

The unit is designed so that the fine tuning screw will not operate if the

position of the saddle extends beyond the front edge of the base plate.

Note: When loosening the saddle lock screws, you must loosen the strings sufficiently before

making adjustments.

FINE TUNING

Even after locking the locking

nut, you can use the fine tuners

(Fig.10 A) to make fine

adjustments to the tuning of

each string.

You should adjust all of the fine

tuners to the center of their

adjustable range before you lock

the locking nut.

ZR TREMOLO(ZERO RESISTANCE)

TREMOLO SPRINGS

The EDGE-PRO II tremolo is designed to

function optimally when it is installed

approximately parallel with the surface

of the guitar body (Fig.4). The angle at

which the tremolo is attached can be

adjusted by changing the length of the

tremolo springs inside the tremolo spring

cavity in the back of the guitar body.

Working through the adjustment holes in

the tremolo spring cavity cover plate, use

a Philips (+) screwdriver to turn the

tremolo tension adjustment screws to

adjust the length of the tremolo springs.

If the tremolo is tilted forward toward the

neck of the guitar (Fig.5), turn the screws

clockwise to tighten the springs.

Conversely, if the tremolo is tilted

backward away from the neck (Fig.6),

turn the screws counter-clockwise to

loosen the springs. Tune the guitar

accurately, re-check the angle of the

tremolo, and repeat the adjustment until

the tremolo angle is correct. The EDGE-

PRO II tremolo is designed to function

optimally when three springs are

tensioned equally with a 0.009" gauge

set of strings installed. If you replace the strings with a different gauge set,

you can adjust the tremolo angle by changing the number of springs or the

way in which the springs are installed.

Loosen all strings before you add or remove a tremolo spring.

The EDGE-PRO II tremolo uses a block lock mechanism to fasten the

tremolo springs to the block. Before you change the number of springs or

the way in which they are installed, use a Philips (+) screwdriver to

remove the block lock (Fig.7).

NOTE: If you want to install four or five tremolo springs, insert the springs into the block nut

attachment screw holes. (In this case, it will not be possible to attach the block nut.)

Loosen the Saddle lock screws (D) on the saddle

to be adjusted and adjust the saddle forward or

backward. Tighten the Saddle lock screw (D)

and tune the string. After rechecking the

intonation, tighten the Pressure pad screw (C).

* On the base plate there are two holes for each Saddle lock screw. These allow the user to change string gauges

while allowing the maximum saddle movement. If the intonation cannot be adjusted because the saddle needs

to be set back further, remove the intonation screw and insert it into the hole located further back on the bridge

plate.

Main Spring

Tremolo Block

Stop Rod

Stopper

With the guitar tuned correctly, adjust the

Main Spring make sure that the Stop Rod

makes contact with the Tremolo Block

and Stopper.

If the Stop Rod does not make contact

with the Tremolo Block and Stopper,

adjust the Main Spring adjustment screw

until contact is made.

With the guitar tuned correctly, Stop Rod

must make contact with the Tremolo

Block and Stopper. If it is adjusted

correctly, the tension while pushing down

on the arm will be slightly less than

tension while pulling up.The balance of

force is about 3:7 (With this setup, stop

rod must the tremlo block and stopper

even the 1st string is comlpetely loosened.)

Again, if the Stop Rod does not make

contact with theTremolo Block and

Stopper, adjust the Main Spring

adjustment screwuntil contact is made.

<Note>

When a string breaks,because of the tension of neck,the tuning of other strings will be a

little higher butstill limits within acceptable range.

TREMOLO ARM ADJUSTMENT

(SAT PRO)

To adjust the height of the arm,

remove the tremolo spring cover

from the back of the guitar, and use

a 3 mm Allen wrench to turn the

height adjustment screw attached to

the bottom of the tremolo block.

Tightening this in the clockwise

direction will raise the height.

ADJUSTING THE ZERO POINT SYSTEM

The Zero Point system makes it easier to

tune a floating tremolo unit, provides

greater tuning stability after arming, and

limits the tuning drift that would

otherwise occur when a string breaks.

*If the Zero Point system is not

adjusted to the correct position it will

not function optimally, since it will

either be completely floating, or the

Zero Point system and the string

tension will be in balance. You must

perform this adjustment accurately.

<NOTE>

INTONATION ADJUSTMENT

(SAT PRO)

To adjust the intonation, use a 1.5 mm

Allen wrench to turn the screw located

at the rear of the saddle (E). Turn the

screw clockwise to move the saddle

toward the rear, or counter-clockwise

to move the saddle forward.

INTONATION ADJUSTMENT

(FAT20)

To assure that no movement can

occur each saddle has a set screw

that locks the saddle. When adjusting the

intonation, loosen the saddle lock screw

using a 2mm Allen wrench. (D)

To adjust the intonation, insert a 2.5mm

Allen wrench into the saddle screw at the

rear of the tremolo. Turning the wrench

clockwise will adjust the saddle

backward. Counter clockwise will adjust

the saddle forward. After the correct

intonation location of the saddle is set

tighten the saddle lock down screw to

assure no movement will occur. (E)

SWITCHING TO FLOATING OPERATION

By stopping the Zero Point system from

functioning, you can make the tremolo

float completely. While holding the arm

up, remove the stop rod and sub spring.

With the guitar tuned correctly, use the

main spring adjustment knob (Fig. 14E)

to adjust the angle of the tremolo unit. If

the tremolo unit is tilted forward toward

the neck, turn the spring adjustment

knob in the plus (+) direction.

Conversely, if the tremolo unit is tilted

backward away from the neck, turn the

spring adjustment knob in the minus (-)

direction.

*You will need to tune repeatedly during

the process of adjusting the tremolo

angle in the floating state, since the

tuning will drift each time you adjust the

main spring adjustment knob.
