This Ibanez Prestige Rg652KFX Fixed Bridge Electric Guitar is owned by Kiko Loureiro, lead guitar player for the highly influential metal pioneers, Megadeth.

Another guitar that is very special for me, a Grammy winner guitar, is the RG 852 from Ibanez. So, this guitar was the guitar that I used maybe 90 percent of the time for recording rhythms for the Megadeth album, Dystopia. So, basically, I used the Kiko 100, the red one and this RG 852 on the album and the Takamine Hirade. Basically, that was my instruments. I think I had 2 Kiko 100 and this RG. So, there you have it. So, you can have a Grammy winner guitar, the guitar that was most of time recording the rifts on Dystopia.

This guitar makes me want to run out and start a metal band right now. Lightweight. Fast and easy to play. No frills. No BS. Just a good guitar. Some marks on the bouts from what looks like it being chucked around a little bit. Minor buckle wear. This might just be our favorite guitar.

Ibanez's most iconic guitar, the RG (short for "Rock Guitar") can be seen as the company's Stratocaster or Les Paul. As the company's flagship model, the RG has been in production for over three decades and has undergone a number of iterations in various lines and limited edition models. 

The Prestige series is Ibanez's higher-end line of guitars manufactured exclusively in Japan since 2009. This series features precise machine construction and finishing with an emphasis in Japanese craftsmanship.

PS: This guitar plays like a dream. I haven't owned any guitar even close to this one. I would keep it rest of my life but unfortunately my dog diagnosed with Ameloblastoma and I am trying to cover cost of his upcoming surgery.
