Chris Broderick, three-time Grammy nominated guitarist of the thrash metal band Megadeth has generously donated this custom hand painted Ibanez Prestige S5470 Electric Guitar to his guitar hero, Jason Becker. It is personally autographed by all members of Megadeth: Dave Mustaine, David Ellefson, Shawn Drover, and Chris himself.
This guitar was used in the recording of Megadeth’s 12th studio album “Endgame”, and played live on important tours in 2009 through 2010.
“Jason Becker has been and continues to be one of my biggest influences whether it’s on the guitar, in music, or about life in general. I can’t say enough about the man who has been such a big part of my ability in music, so hopefully this guitar I have given to him to auction will convey in a small way my gratitude for all he has done!”
- Chris Broderick

The S Prestige series is Made-in-Japan by the finest Ibanez craftsmen and from top-of-the-line components. This beautifully contoured shape, combined with the ZR-2 tremolo system, produces warm, resonant tones from a super thin mahogany body. The comfortably thin S models feature a fast 5-piece maple/walnut Super Wizard high performance Prestige 24-fret neck, unlimited tonal possibilities from Hot Grinder and Short Tracer pickups in a hum/single/hum configuration and the revolutionary ZR2 bridge w/ZPS3 spring system for trem effects beyond anything you've experienced.
