However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The Ibanez YY20 Yvette Young brings together all the elements you want in a guitar built for speedy shredding. A player of consummate skill, Young dazzles with her rapid licks and blisteringly fast finger movements. Naturally, her signature guitar comes equipped with all the appointments necessary to achieve such a level of pinpoint tapping accuracy.
A sumptuous rosewood fretboard gives you a rich, deep tonal canvas to paint your melodies on. Buttery-smooth and boasting a focused mid-range, it's the best choice tonewood to reach the kind of swift transitions Yvette demonstrates. Key to generating the YY20's sparkling, glassy tones are the Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro pickups that sing with a sweet treble response. Inventive, inspiring and finely tuned just like Young's magnificent skills, the YY20 will give you enough energy to light up any stage.
Product Ref: 196332
A natural musician, Yvette has been making waves in the guitar world with her band Covet. Known for outstanding, accelerated riffs, she has forged her own style and injects plenty of personality into her playing.
Where she might differ from your standard master shredding merchant, is her initial background as a piano player. Entirely self-taught on the guitar, she learned to play by ear. Consequently, she utilises a lot of non-standard tunings and chord shapes to create her vibrant musicality. In recognition of this talent, the YY20 comes with the 6th string tuned to F and 4th to C, encouraging you to immediately adopt her idea-rich attitude.
Central to her melodious flow are the incredibly meticulous Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro single coil pickups. Finely crafted from the pickup professionals at Seymour Duncan, they have a vintage voicing that elicits a pristine chime with plenty of detailed treble. While they hum with excellent clarity on clean channels, if a bit of bite is what you need, they're hot enough to give you some serious snarl. Perfect for capturing every detail of the glorious rosewood fretboard and alder body, these pickups won't miss a trick.
Selectable through a 3-way switch, you have access to a creamy, rich twang on the neck single-coil. Meanwhile for a dedicated sharpness that has plenty of cut, the bridge is your best choice. For a balanced blend that shines with plenty of punch, switch over to the middle selector to activate both pickups.
Effortless playing on a maple neck and rosewood fretboardComfortable and speedy. It's what any guitarist wants, and it is certainly how Yvette Young specified her Ibanez to be. To achieve this, Ibanez have installed the YY20 with a curved maple neck that's robust, stable, and full of bright tonal character. It will give you a friction-free experience as you position your hand all over the neck, allowing you to mimic Young's stunning fluidity.
On the fretting side of things, a best-in-class rosewood fretboard adorns the YY20. Known for its engaging, soft embrace and flawless tonal character, there couldn't have been a better choice for an instrument that encourages emotive playing all over the scales. Included with medium sized frets and a bone nut, you have superb notal accuracy and tuning stability. Get concocting new melodic marvels on this lovely fretboard.
Sometimes it's the little things that really complete a guitar. In this case, it’s the impeccable Gotoh locking machine heads and bridge. Experience rock solid tuning stability thanks to the locking machine heads, particularly important if you're messing around with unique tunings like Yvette does! Meanwhile the Gotoh GTC202 bridge delivers superior intonation with six individual string saddles.
Finally, a classy touch from Ibanez and Yvette herself. There's an included pack of stickers designed and drawn by Young herself, so you can add even more of her artistic flair to your guitar or associated gear.
