Ibanez RGMS8-BK RG Iron Label 8-String Electric Guitar, Black

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 favour a hardtail (fixed) bridge or our industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument.

Jatoba Fretboard
Jatoba has a reddish brown color which produces a rich mid range with a crisp high end.

Mono-rail Bridge
Designed for both stability and sustain, the innovative Ibanez Mono-Rail bridge minimizes cross-talk between strings

Mono-unit Output Jack
The mono-unit output jack is made of solid, durable material and is a single piece to avoid unwanted movement and loosening of the jack, which leads to contact failure or disconnection. This innovation allows for long term playing enjoyment and minimal maintenance.

Array 8 MS Pickups
Ibanez Array pickups deliver a super tight tone with low noise that handle down-tuning perfectly.

Multi-scale Frets (27.26"/25.5")
Using the trapezoidal 27.26"/25.5" scale, its multiscale neck construction provides an equalized tension that creates a lively, open tone. Designed for playability, the slants are matched with the player’s hand angles to facilitate quick playing along with the flatling on the 12th fret. By setting the horizontal point close to bridge’s side, shredding in high frets is easy.

Nyatoh Body
Nyatoh used as the body wood provides a rich mid-low end.

Wizard III 5pc Maple/Walnut Neck
Ibanez’s thin, flat and fast Wizard neck is strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability and features a two-octave 24-fret fretboard for a wide tonal range.
