Ibanez introduced the SZ720FM in 2004 with a double-cutaway body shape derived from the super-slim Ibanez S models, but with a thicker body and set neck. The SZ720FM also has custom shop-style flame neck inlays. The 25.1" scale SZ neck is slightly thicker than the Ibanez Wizard neck. The SZ features a fixed Gibraltar III bridge and thru-body stringing. It has a carved flame maple top on a mahogany body and two high output SZ ceramic humbuckers (from 2005 onwards these had Duncan/Ibanez pickups). In 2008 the SZ720FM was discontinued and replaced by the SZR720 model.

Had a grey one, sold it then had to buy an amber one . Great quality super neck. Original Duncan Ibanez pickups. It is like a super strat with les paul tones TOO! I will not part with this one. Who needs a P.R.S. anyway

Very good quality guitar. Large frets are more precise than jumbo frets. Superior tuners and sounds great!
