YY10 Slime Green Sparkle (more images)

The YY10 is a solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2020. It is produced in Indonesia and is also referred to as the YYM10.

The YY10 is the first signature guitar model for Yvette Young, frontwoman of the American math rock band Covet. Young is just the second female artist with a signature Ibanez guitar, joining Nita Strauss.

The YY10 features an alder Talman body bolted to a U-shaped maple neck with a 22-fret maple fingerboard with black dot position markers and luminescent side dots. Components include a vintage-style six-screw Wilkinson WV6-SB, a set of three Seymour Duncan Five-Two single coil pickups mounted in a white pickguard, a bone nut, and Gotoh locking tuning machines.

The neck style was renamed from "U" to "YY" for 2021, but the dimensions are unchanged.

The guitar comes with a set of decals designed by Young.

The YY20 is a similar model with a Tele-style pickup combination and a different finish.
