"Unbeatable guitar at an unbelievable price"

Feature:
A neck-thru guitar with a full locking-neck system and a great sparkly black finish. The tuners are excellent and the inlays are awesome looking, I suggest you see this guitar in person to understand its beauty.

Quality:
This is a very well-made and great guitar. It's mahogany body produces an unmatched sustaine when paired with the neck-thru design. The finish is beautiful and sparkles in lights and the rosewood neck with 2-tone sharktooth inlays has fast action and medium frets.

Value:
This guitar is worth waaayyy more than its asking price and i commend Ibanez for their low prices on such well-made instruments

Desirability:
The aesthetics of the guitar are hard to beat and this is definitely the guitar for a metal and hardcore guitarist

Sound:
The new Infinity pickups that Ibanez loaded in all RG's are great pickups. They have a great sound and paired with the neck-thru body and awesome bridge, they create a great sounding guitar. The lows are devastating and the highs cut right through. My only suggestion is if you play metal like me, load it with EMGs

Support:
I had my dealer order this guitar from the factory and it came in in less than a week which is great time. I have yet to deal with technical support though.

Overall:
Im just glad mine finally came in and it is MUCH better than any LTD or Fender for a metal guitar

"Fire it up, straight up beauty."

Feature:
its not a floyd rose bridge, but its really sturdy and no need to tune when most others are tuning. Great for onstage.

Quality:
very good quality, the paint job is really something. I'd look at this thing in a store, thats what i did before buying it offline, i mean this thing is spectacular.

Value:
i got mine on sale,

Desirability:
as soon as i saw this when guitar shopping, i knew i had to have it.

Sound:
its a sweet sound, but i think the pickups are pretty weak, not alot of crystal clear highs, but im sure if you through in some dimarzios it woud sound pretty hott.

Support:
never had any problems

Overall:
It's a beautiful guitar, with stock pickups, can't complain i see this guitar as a lasting member of my collection
