Description
News
As the RG Prestige history continues to be written, players have demanded new specs, new finishes and new thrills. In 2009, Ibanez has responded with a host of new models. These guitars are all made in Japan by our finest luthiers and have the fast, flat Prestige necks, drop-dead good looks and double-locking trems, plus new finishes, maple fretboards and new pickup configurations featuring DiMarzio(R) Air Norton(TM), True Velvet(TM) and Tone Zone(R) pickups.
Features
The new RG1527MGW's ripping tones come from a V77 pickup in the neck position and a V87 in the bridge position.
The RG1527MGW features a 5-piece maple/wenge Wizard-7 Prestige neck with maple fretboard.
Edge Pro Tremolo
In the last two decades, no other guitar maker besides Ibanez has done so much to advance the art and science of the tremolo. The Edge-PRO represents the next phase in locking tremolos.
To avoid the problem of string holder blocks getting lost during string changes, the Edge-PRO's sliding string holders are actually part of the bridge and won't drop from the saddle unit.
With the Edge-PRO design, there's no need to cut off the ball end of your strings when installing new strings.
The Edge-PRO features a unique Sound Metal Chip on each saddle which helps increase sustain right at the most critical area, the intonation point.

Ibanez RG1527M Prestige 7-String Electric Guitar (with Case) Reviews
10 out of 10
"This guitar is great! "
Feature:
I like the Ibanez® tremelo on it, it has a nice "Axel" tilt type thing, it stay in tune and the Maple Fingerboard, oh, its awesome. The action is so nicely set right (idk if it was set by store it was used" but its such a nice guitar for its price.
Quality:
Very well built, nice pickups, tremolo, neck, feel, everything. I put a 9 because it was used but it was still very nice.
Value:
Its a little pricey for me (im only 13yrs old) but im no noob at guitar. I think its a great guitar tho, maybe $900 would be more exceptable but overall, its a good price for people with more money.Its also a a Prest, so.... that kinda boosts the price.
Desirability:
This guitar has a nice "sexy", as you will call it, white color and with the Maple Fingerboard it looks nice. The Headstock doesnt match with the black and all but its still nice.
Sound:
It was a great sound. Sweet smooth and clean neck pickup but it can also give a nice inpact of distortion. The bridge pick up was very nice and clean, tbh i would replace the pick ups with DiMarzio® X2N 7's but thats just me.
Ease of Use:
Like i said the action is low, so easy to hit the 24th fret. The low B sounds great no fret buzz at all.
Support:
Ummmm i dont own it but.....idk.
Overall:
All I have to say is, a great guitar, for a goodish price, the pickups could be a Dimarzio® set of pick ups in there.
