Ibanez RG - Various Models

Various Models

Current RG Series is currently split into 5 versions depending on quality:

  • Ibanez J Custom - Highest quality Japanese made RG guitars exclusive to the Japanese market, sometimes available retail in Europe. The only source of 7-String RG's with non-IBZ branded pickups. Unfortunately, not available outside of Japan (as of 2011, J customs are available in the U.S.) unless you buy them from a non-authorized retailer. Typically, there are a few listed at any given time on eBay.
  • RG Prestige - High quality Japanese-made RG guitars which contains the RG, RGA, and most of the RGT series. Contains the higher quality model of the two 7-String RG's currently in production.
  • Ibanez RG Premium - High quality instrument below the RG prestige series, has USA-made Dimarzio/Ibz pickups and Edge Zero II tremolos. Some models feature highly figured maple veneer.
  • RG Tremolo - RG series guitars of non-Japanese origin (China, Korea and Indonesia) with Floyd Rose-style tremolo.
  • RG Fixed - RG guitars with fixed bridges of non-Japanese origin. The RG Fixed family contains one of only two 7-String RG's currently in production.

Famous quotes containing the word models:

    “Grandparents can be role models about areas that may not be significant to young children directly but that can teach them about patience and courage when we are ill, or handicapped by problems of aging. Our attitudes toward retirement, marriage, recreation, even our feelings about death and dying may make much more of an impression than we realize.”
    —Eda Le Shan (20th century)

    “... your problem is your role models were models.”
    —Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
