The Iceman is an electric guitar model range built by Ibanez since 1975. Since then, many famous artists, including Paul Stanley from Kiss and Daron Malakian from [[System of a Down]] started using the Iceman. Bellamy used two of Iceman ICX120 models, a compact version of the regular Iceman, which was produced between 2000 and 2004. Like with the [[Ibanez Destroyer]], Matt had two of these in his arsenal, both used during the Hullabaloo era. Both appeared to have stock elements with no special circuits. Both guitars were destroyed.
