Description

Yvette Young is a leading force among the new wave of 21st century guitar virtuosos. Fronting math-rock outfit Covet, Young relies on her Ibanez YY10 signature guitar to achieve her distinctive tones and seamless playing fluidity. Finished in a striking slime green sparkle colour, this guitar certainly looks the part too!

Construction

The Ibanez YY10 is based on a timeless guitar construction formula. Featuring a medium-weight, balanced-sounding alder body, this wood serves as a great foundation for the sweet-sounding single-coil pickups.

Joining the body is a bolt-on maple neck carved to Young's specific YY neck profile, which is topped with a Maple fingerboard to ensure a bright and snappy tone. 22 medium-sized frets enable smooth playability, with ergonomic luminescent side dot inlays making it easy to see fingerboard position marks when performing on dark stages.

Seymour Duncan Five Two Single-Coil Pickups

A trio of Seymour Duncan Five Two pickups give this instrument its vibrant and articulate sound. Featuring a combination of alnico 2 and 5 rod magnets, these single-coils deliver sweet highs and tight lows that are truly in their element with clean amp settings or light overdrive.

High-Quality Hardware

The Ibanez YY10 comes equipped with a Wilkinson WV6-SB tremolo. Utilising the unique Wilkinson "5+1" knife-edges, this bridge offers the unsurpassed tone transfer of a 6-screw pivot system with the smooth fulcrum action of a 2 pivot set-up.

To keep things extra stable, the YY10 also comes fitted with Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads, ensuring incredible tuning stability.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
