STM2 SPB

The STM2 is an STM series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2011. It is a signature model of British guitarist Sam Totman, known for his work with the power metal band DragonForce.

The STM2 replaced Totman's first signature model, the STM1. It is primarily a visual update, with the STM2 featuring a flamed maple top and new finish. Additionally, the Wizard II neck was renamed Wizard III. Other features include an Iceman-style body, neck-through body construction with mahogany body wings, DiMarzio Evolution pickups and the Edge III tremolo.

The STM2 was replaced with the STM3 in 2016.
