Unlike early 1960s Teisco-aligned builds, the 496 came at just the right time where budget-friendly build quality marginally improved in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to it's limited production run, units are scarce, making this one a rare little find, with many enthusiasts noting the build quality compared to similar guitars of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 496 has a lightwight body with two gorgeous 'J'-style F holes. The neck feels approachable, with thanks to the slim C shape. With two Maxon single coil pickups, you can expect bright and jangly, yet punchy. For garage rock, surf, blues or indie-rockers, don't look past the Ibanez 496.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ibanez Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46187733057715,"sku":"35408","price":1100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0548\/6382\/3027\/files\/35408_2.png?v=1791438360","url":"https:\/\/southsideguitars.com.au\/products\/ibanez-496-electric-guitar","provider":"Southside Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
