If you want to burn, the Ibanez Prestige RGA622XH was built with you in mind. This fast-and-furious solidbody electric guitar boasts a resonant African mahogany body, which is augmented by a duo of red-hot DiMarzio humbucking pickups. The centerpiece of the RGA622XH, however, is its fast-playing 5-piece Wizard HP neck, which is capped by a sprawling 27-fret Macassar ebony fingerboard. Whether you're tearing through rapid-fire multi-octave runs, furious sweep picking, blazing tapping passages, or ferocious riffage, you'll never run out of space on the RGA622XH. You also get a Lo-Pro Edge tremolo, which can stand up to frenetic whammy abuse without breaking a sweat, and rock-solid Gotoh Machine Head tuners. Finally, attractive gold hardware and a gloss finish ensure a spotlight-worthy look. High-level players need a guitar that can contain their fretwork, and we believe the Prestige RGA622XH to be up to the task.
Ibanez Wizard necks are thin and built for speed, and they enable effortless playability and comfort. The Prestige RGA622XH takes that design to the next level with its 5-piece maple/walnut Wizard HP neck. The just-right feel provided by this neck's satin finish encourages lightning-fast runs, arpeggios, and hammer-ons. Capping the neck is a bound 27-fret Macassar ebony fingerboard, which provides an expansive canvas for highly technical fretboard vivacities. What's more, this fingerboard is turbocharged by Ibanez's Prestige fret edge treatment and loaded with jumbo frets that are perfect for big note bends.
There's no denying the massive range of tone that you can get out of the Ibanez Prestige RGA622XH's duet of DiMarzio pickups. First, there's the DiMarzio Tone Zone at the bridge — a hot humbucker with a super-wide dynamic range. It's a perfect complement to the DiMarzio Air Norton S at the neck. The Air Norton S, which is a single-coil-sized humbucker, is deep, warm, remarkably clean, and it's become a top choice for prog-rock and fusion guitarists. You'll love this ultra-flexible pickup duo. Beyond that, the RGA622XH includes a coil-tap switch, which unlocks even more sonic textures.
Whether you palm mute with precision or simply have a wild strumming style, few things are worse than getting hung up on your bridge during a furious performance. Guitar players at Music Experience are in agreement that the Ibanez Lo-Pro Edge bridge gets out of the way of your playing while still serving up maximum expression and tuning stability. You'll barely know it's there, thanks to its streamlined profile and recessed fine tuners. And you'll have additional tuning stability thanks to the locking studs.
The RG is the most recognizable and distinctive guitar in the Ibanez line. Three decades of metal have forged this high-performance machine, honing it for both speed and strength. Whether you favor a hardtail (fixed) bridge or our industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument. There are three principles behind our new Ibanez Prestige line: Precision, Performance, and Playability. The combination of high-tech manufacturing techniques with old-world Japanese craftsmanship, true innovation in design and construction, and the incorporation of ideas and suggestions from musicians from around the world are the cornerstones of the Prestige production process.
Ibanez's thin, flat and fast Wizard neck is strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability for demanding players.
