Ibanez RGD

The electric guitars from the RGD series are largely based on the popular RG series and yet the Ibanez company has managed to take it a step further to create the ultimate metal machine .

The requirements of downtuning require a specially developed response that is not found on "normal" guitars. To optimize the rich, desirable thick tone that down-tuning produces, the neck was lengthened an inch to a 26.5"scale length . This makes the RGD guitars' neck longer than standard, but not excessively long . As is usual with RG guitars, the neck is still suitable for fast solo playing . Extra deep cutaways allow the guitarist easy access to the highest notes of the neck.

The Ibanez RGD series is currently produced in three different versions. These are RGD-Prestige, RGD-Axion-Label and the RGD-Standard.

The RGD Prestige series is the absolute non-plus-ultra. It combines precision, power and playability in every instrument. To achieve true innovation in design and construction / acoustic , the RGD Prestige series combines high-tech manufacturing techniques with traditional Japanese craftsmanship . The Prestige Line is based on the ideas and suggestions of musicians from all over the world, which means that the models are constantly being further developed.

The electric guitars from the RDG Axion label series take up the established elements of modern electric guitar design and push them into new, less explored areas. Similar to the Bass Workshop series - which is considered the tip of the iceberg - the Axion label comes with exciting features such as multi- scale length design , state-of-the-art pickup from Fishman, Bare Knuckle® and DiMarzio and hardware innovations such as the Evertune ® bridge is used. All elements here represent the ultimate potential of this series.

The RGD standard series is considered a solid rock in the surf. The features of the Standard series contain all the cornerstones for which the Ibanez brand is famous. This includes fast necks, soaring highs and high-octane distortion in one package.
