A Kaoss Pad on 2 Ibanez instruments

Ibanez and Korg joined forces to design an RG guitar and an SR bass equipped with the new Mini Kaoss Pad 2S.

The top of both instruments has been carved to receive the latest version of the Korg effect pad, the Mini Kaoss Pad 2S that we introduced last week in this news, which allows guitar and bass players to use more than 100 effects, control them with a touch pad and add samples thanks to the built-in sample player and speaker.

Also new on these models is the integration of a switchable and adjustable distortion circuit and a 1/8” headphone output that sits next to the 1/4 instrument input.
