Description

The RGD is Ibanez's ultimate metal machine. The demands of down-tuning require a specifically designed responsiveness not found in "normal" guitars. To optimize for the rich, desirable thickness of tone that down-tuning produces, the neck has been extended by one inch to a 26.5" scale. Longer-than standard yet not overly long. The neck is still considered a "fast" neck for speed soloing. Extra-deep cutaways grant comfortable access to the necks highest notes.

Features

- Wizard II-7 5pc Panga Panga/Walnut neck

- Macassar Ebony fretboard

Macassar Ebony produces tight lows and mid range along with strong attack in the highs and quick response with rich sustain.

- Jumbo frets

Jumbo frets contribute to smooth playability, especially for single-note playing.

- Flamed Maple top / Layered Ash & Okoume body

The Flamed Maple top displays a beautiful wood grain and the Layered Ash & Okoume body supplies a pleasant brightness and rich sustain.

- DiMarzio® Fusion Edge pickups

Through close collaboration between Ibanez and DiMarzio®, Fusion Edge pickups have been engineered to produce a powerful, distinctive tone with a crisp, cutting high end, and a tight, compressed bottom end, minus any muddy mid-range.

- Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads

The Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.

- Gibraltar Standard III bridge

The Gibraltar Standard III bridge, featuring a redesigned baseplate and saddles, offers enhanced playing comfort while ensuring optimal string vibration transfer.

- 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.
