Description
What makes this guitar special: Simple and slick, this RG Series Ibanez boasts a powerful sound for its pickup configuration. Outside of a super slim neck that plays incredibly easy, the true highlight of this guitar is its pair of DiMarzio humbuckers and their respective control scheme. With a 5-way switch, players can run the pickups in series, parallel, and pair up inner and outer pairs of single-coils to deliver a wide variety of tone, the peak of which is a hot and chunky neck response and a ton of crispy bite in the bridge. Plus, for 15 years old, its still in fantastic shape, comes with its original hardshell case, and a professional setup so it’s ready to roll as soon as you open the case.
Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall. It shows only a few minor finish chips, dings, and light scratches, but is otherwise in fantastic shape for a guitar that’s over 15 years old. The frets show almost no wear whatsoever and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is comfortable and the truss rod functions as it should.
Body: Double cutaway basswood body in Metallic Blue finish. Fixed bridge with adjustable saddles. Black knurled control knobs and hardware.
Neck: Slim D shape maple neck and rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays. Black sealed tuning machines. 1 7/8” nut width. 25 5/8” scale. .78” deep at the 1st fret and .82” deep at the 12th.
Electronics: DiMarzio humbucking pickups. 1 x volume, 1 x tone control. 5-way pickup selector.
Weight: 6 lbs 12.3 oz
Playability/Sound: The slim neck is wonderfully easy to move around, especially with a wider nut to accommodate an additional string. The pickups are fairly hot with chunky neck output and a crispier bite in the bridge.
