The SB70 is a solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 1982. It was made in Japan by FujiGen and was a spot model that never appeared in a catalog. It is believed that 300 units were made.
The SB70 is a hybrid of the Studio and the Blazer series. It has a Studio-style ash body bolted to a Blazer-style maple neck with a 21-fret maple fingerboard with pearloid dot position markers. Components include a pair of Ibanez Super 70 humbucking pickups with ceramic magnets and exposed cream bobbins mounted in cream pickup rings with individual volume and tone controls and a phase toggle, a brass fixed bridge and Super Tuner machine heads. The output is mounted on the face of the guitar.
It's essentially a cross between the ST70 and BL70 models. Production is presumed to be in the low hundreds of examples, but no specific number has been published; an unofficial SB70 registry is maintained on the Ibanez Collector's World forum.
