The DG351 is a Destroyer series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 1987. It replaced the similar DG350.

The DG351 features an angular X-shaped Destroyer basswood body bolted to a maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with dot position markers. Components include dual Ibanez V5 humbucking pickups and an Edge double locking tremolo bridge with a locking nut and a Back Stop stabilizer. The combination of the Edge, Back Stop and Top-Lok III nut were marketed as the Sure Bet Tuning System.

The DG351 was discontinued after just one year in production.
