As the crown jewel of the Ibanez line, the Prestige designation paints a vivid picture of the passion and pride of Japanese luthiery. These guitars, produced exclusively in Japan, have earned worldwide acclaim for their exemplary craftsmanship, superb quality and numerous innovations. Manifested here in the classic Ibanez RG format, the RG657PB Prestige is an instrument worthy of its position as cornerstone of the Ibanez legacy.

The RG657PB features a Mahogany body with a handsomely figured Poplar Burl top. A Rosewood fretboard and exclusive 5-piece Maple/Walnut Super Wizard High-Performance neck provide exceptional playability and rock solid stability even under the most extreme playing conditions. DiMarzio Air Norton, True Velvet, and The Tone Zone pickups, along with 5-way switch, were chosen for the inspiring way they complement each other to create a wide pallet of tonal options that add fire, retain clarity, and improve sustain. The masterpiece Edge bridge offers exceptional tuning stability, precise intonation adjustment, and playing comfort. A hardshell case is included.

From the moment I opened the case, I was in love. The matte finish and the natural marks on the top give it an amazing texture. The neck is lightning fast and unbelievably smooth. Every inch of this guitar screams quality. The pickups are all different and have their own sounds, but all compliment each other beautifully. If you are on the fence about this, buy it. You will not regret it.
