NEW IBANEZ PRESTIGE MODELS FEATURE MAPLE FRETBOARDS
Bensalem, PA — “When it comes to Japanese production luthiery, Ibanez Prestige has always been the standard bearer. But we aim toward flexibility as well. The new maple fretboard offerings are a good example of that,” Observing a trend toward maple fretboards amongst the company’s artist roster, the Ibanez team queried their high-end dealers who had noted a similar shift in preference. For NAMM 2015 Ibanez introduces the maple adorned RG’s in six, seven and eight string versions
A classic representative of these new offerings is the RG652AHMNGB. Featuring an Ash body that delivers a generous portion of sustain, the ultra-fast, 5-piece Maple/Walnut, Super Wizard High-Performance neck has a stunning birdseye maple fretboard that delivers an aggressive sonic response. Electronics include a pair of DiMarzio® Air Norton™ and The Tone Zone™ pickups for the perfect mix of power and tone, and a 5-way selector switch for maximum tonal versatility. The classic Edge bridge offers exceptional tuning stability, precise intonation adjustment, and playing comfort. A hard shell case included.
