Ibanez RGDRB71 BKF Iron Label 7 String Electric Guitar. Black

RGDRB71 The RGD is Ibanez's ultimate metal machine. The demands of down-tuning require a specifically designed responsiveness not found in ÓnormalÓ guitars. To optimize for the rich, desirable thickness of tone that down-tuning produces, we extended the neck by one inch to a 26.5Ó scale. Longer-than standard yet not overly long. The neck is still considered a ÓfastÓ neck for speed soloing. Extra-deep cutaways grant comfortable access to the necks highest notes. - Iron Label - The Iron Label line was originally developed with metal and nothing but metal in mind. We modded and tweaked until we gotÊtoÊtheÊheaviest-hittingÊmetalÊaxesÊweÕveÊeverÊbuilt. TheyÕre purposefully spartan, and you wonÕt find a feature here that doesn't contributeÊdirectlyÊtoÊaÊbone rattling,Êearth shatteringÊtones these guitars pump out. Carrying forward that same philosophy, the next generation of Iron Label guitars take this raw metal energy to a completely new level. They sport totally blacked out looks, and their supercharged electronics amounting to some of the heaviest-swinging metal axes weÕve ever produced. ****Product Features**** - Wizard II Roasted Maple neck The Roasted Maple neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance and tolerance of temperature changes. - Ebony fretboard Ebony produces tight lows and mid range with a strong attack in the high end and features a quick response and rich sustain. - Jumbo frets Jumbo frets contribute to smooth playability, especially for single-note playing. - Nyatoh body Nyatoh used as the body wood provides a rich mid-low end. - DiMarzio¨ D Activatorª pickups DiMarzio¨ D Activatorª pickups have a powerful, clean, and open sound with excellent harmonic overtones and very tight low-end response. - Gotoh¨ MG-T locking machine heads The Gotoh¨ MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time. - Mono-rail bridge Designed for both stability and sustain, the innovative Ibanez Mono-Rail bridge minimizes cross-talk between strings - Coil-tap switch The coil tap switch adds sound and tonal variations for both pickups. - Luminescent side dots The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages. ****Special Features**** - 26.5 inch scale Its extra long 26.5Ó scale and ability to accurately intonate heavier string gauges, make it the perfect beast for down-tuned metal.
