Manufacturer's Description

The RG is the most recognizable and distinctive guitar in the Ibanez line. Three decades of metal have forged this high-performance machine, honing it for both speed and strength. Whether you favor a hardtail (fixed) bridge or our industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument.

  • Ultra-8 Neck : A 5pc maple/wenge neck provides rock solid stability for the increased tension of 8 strings.
  • Gibraltar Standard II-8 bridge : The Gibraltar Standard II is a simple fixed bridge that was designed to unify with the guitar's body and provide optimal transfer of each string's vibration. Smooth surface is designed to maximize playing comfort.
  • EMG® 808 Pickups : The USA-made EMG® 808 active pickups are first-ever full-production 8-string pickups. Due to their balanced tone and clear articulation of low notes, they continue to be the popular choices.
  • Gotoh® Magnum Lock Machineheads : The Magnum Lock machineheads offer incredible tuning stability.
