The APEX2 is a seven-string solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2007. It is a signature guitar created for James "Munky" Shaffer, guitarist for the American band Korn. It is part of the APEX series.

The APEX2 is based on the RG series body. It features a mahogany body mated to a maple and wenge neck with a 24-fret bound rosewood fingerboard with an APEX inlay on the 12th fret. Components include dual DiMarzio PAF 7 humbucking pickups and a fixed bridge.

The APEX2 is essentially a mass-market version of the flagship APEX1. The primary difference between the two is the bridge.
