Ibanez RGIX27FEQM-TG RG Iron Label Transparent Gray de 7 cuerdas

General

The guitars from the Ibanez RG series are known for their shape but also for their application. The metal scene has been using this model for over thirty years now. For those looking for more metal characteristics, Ibanez offers the Iron Label subseries. This 7-string RGIX27FEQM-TG guitar is a true stage weapon. The sharp RG shapes are combined with the ultra-fast Nitro Wizard neck that is slightly wider on this model, due to the extra string.
Ibanez RGIX27FEQM-TG: materials and construction
The body of this shredding machine is made of basswood for a fat but balanced sound. The Nitro Wizard-7 neck was designed for fast-playing guitarists, is solid and comfortable and is fitted with an ebony fretboard with 24 jumbo frets. The guitar features some great-looking details such as the quilted maple top, the Transparent Gray finish and the gold-coloured hardware. The fixed Gibraltar Standard 7 bridge provides great stability and keeps the guitar perfectly tuned for a very long time. Furthermore, it optimally unifies the strings with the body, resulting in a quick response and maximum resonance.
EMG 707
EMG pickups always perform well, but the active 707 pickups on this guitar are a league of their own. They were designed specifically for 7-string guitars and since their introduction in 2001, these pickups really take the lead when it comes to these instruments. The Alnico V-coil is tuned especially for the low B string and produces a very tight sound. From death chugs to jazzy chords, the 707 always sounds articulated and dynamic. The RGIX27FEQM-TG is fitted with two 707's, which really makes this Ibanez Iron Label 7-string guitar worthwhile. Finally, the Kill Switch provides a stroboscopic effect which makes a solo even more intense.
