Electric guitar with aspen top, bird's eye maple fingerboard, DiMarzio pickups and Edge Tremolo, including case
With the Ibanez Prestige RG652MPB-GFB Ghost Fleet Blue, the traditional Japanese company presents an electric guitar that invites you to shred with excellent playability and hot pickups. The ash body in the typical RG design offers not only comfortable contours, but also wide cut cutaways that allow unhindered access to high positions of the neck made of maple and walnut. With the flat "Super Wizard HP" profile, it lies extremely in the hand, so that almost every reef plays itself between the 24 frets of the bird's-eye maple fingerboard. On the amplifier, the combination of a DiMarzio Air Norton on the neck and the DiMarzio The Tone Zone on the bridge provides hot rock and metal sounds that encourage you to write fat riffs and virtuoso solos. In addition, the Ibanez RG652MPB is equipped with the well-known reliable Edge Tremolo and high-quality Gotoh tuners.
The Ibanez Prestige RG652MPB Ghost Fleet Blue convinces with its chic burl poplar top with smooth-running playability and hot DiMarzio pickups.

Ibanez Prestige RG652MPB-GFB Ghost Fleet Blue Burst
Its a beautiful guitar, but a bit expensive. Sound-wise its not surprising or stunning, but no issue here. In general its absolutely beautiful with its bumpy texture, which you can actually feel. If you only care for sound and tone precision, then there are more efficient price/performance choices. Its just price for beauty.
