Sound & Tone
The African mahogany body with its flamed maple top and 25.5" scale gives this HSS build a warm foundation with tight note separation and long sustain, while the pair of Seymour Duncan Fortuna single-coils supply sparkling cleans and articulate midrange through a direct passive signal path. The bridge humbucker shifts things toward punchy drive and thick lead sustain, making the switch between glassy rhythm chime and saturated soloing a natural one. Suited to fusion, blues, rock and higher-gain playing, with a compound-radius rosewood board and jumbo stainless frets that favour both chordal work at the nut and expressive bending up high.
Ibanez MMN1-TAB Martin Miller Signature Guitar (B-Stock)
The MMN1-TAB settles into the session player's hands with instant familiarity—its AZ Oval C roasted maple neck arrives broken-in smooth from the factory, with a profile that transitions from 20.5mm at the first fret to 22.5mm at the twelfth for balanced support across both rhythm and lead tracking. Built in Japan as part of Ibanez's Prestige line, this signature model channels Martin Miller's exacting demands for articulate tone, dynamic response, and precision playability—assets that cut through dense mixes in fusion, blues, rock, and high-gain contexts. This B-Stock unit carries only a minor cosmetic finish crack on the neck pocket—structurally and sonically, it performs identically to new inventory.
Playability & Construction
The S-TECH roasted maple neck provides enhanced moisture resistance and dimensional stability for reliable session work, while the rosewood fretboard with abalone dot inlays and 228mm–305mm compound radius accommodates comfortable chord voicings near the nut and effortless bending higher up for expressive recording takes. All 22 jumbo stainless steel frets receive Prestige-level edge treatment, ensuring smooth play and long-term durability across countless tracking hours. The 42mm bone nut and 56.4mm width at the 22nd fret maintain consistent string spacing and intonation across the board.
Tone & Recording Character
Two Seymour Duncan Fortuna single-coils capture sparkling cleans and articulate midrange perfect for layering and blending, while the bridge humbucker provides punchy drive and sustain for lead passes and tight rhythm tones that sit naturally in a mix. The passive electronics keep the signal path direct and transparent, allowing the 4mm flamed maple top over African mahogany body to express its full harmonic character—rich sustain, balanced warmth, and exceptional note separation across all registers for recording clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means this MMN1-TAB is fully functional and structurally identical to new inventory, but carries minor cosmetic imperfections—in this case a small finish crack on the neck pocket and light marks on the blue body. These are purely superficial and have zero impact on playability, tone, or durability; you receive the same professional-grade instrument at a significant discount.
Who is this guitar designed for?
The MMN1-TAB is built for intermediate to advanced players working in fusion, blues, rock, and studio contexts where articulate tone, dynamic response, and precision playability are essential. It is not voiced for folk or worship styles.
What pickup configuration does it have, and how does it sound?
The HSS setup pairs two Seymour Duncan Fortuna single-coils in the neck and middle positions with a bridge humbucker, delivering sparkling cleans and articulate midrange from the singles, and punchy drive and rich sustain from the humbucker. The passive electronics keep the signal transparent, letting the flamed maple and mahogany body contribute balanced warmth and exceptional note separation across all registers.
How does the neck feel, and will it suit both rhythm and lead playing?
The AZ Oval C S-TECH roasted maple neck provides a broken-in smoothness from day one, with a profile that tapers from 20.5mm at the first fret to 22.5mm at the twelfth—wider and more supportive higher up for leads, more comfortable near the nut for chord voicings. The 228mm–305mm compound radius supports both styles without compromise.
What hardware and hardware specifications should I know about?
The guitar features Gotoh T1702B synchronized tremolo with smooth action and tuning stability, Gotoh locking tuning machines for reliable hold, a 42mm bone nut, 25.5-inch scale length, and 22 jumbo stainless steel frets with Prestige-level edge treatment. All hardware and fret work are engineered for long-term durability and consistent intonation.
