The Ibanez Prestige RGR52ET-BK Black at a glance:
With the RGR52ET-BK, Ibanez is expanding its renowned RG series with an uncompromisingly modern performance instrument that has been specially designed for use in heavier music genres. The prestige version of this electric guitar impresses with a range of modern features that meet the high demands of ambitious metal and prog guitarists. The classic RG design with double cutaway has been supplemented with a reverse headstock, which not only looks striking but also supports the playability of the low strings. The built-in EverTune bridge ensures absolute tuning stability and perfect intonation with every note. Thanks to Fishman Fluence pickups, high-quality tonewoods and a practical operating concept, the Prestige RGR52ET-BK combines the best features for modern guitarists.
The black high-gloss finish and the golden pickup covers give the Prestige RGR52ET-BK a classy look!
Optimal handling for modern metal realms
The combination of a Nyatoh body with a maple top and high-gloss black finish makes the electric guitar a beautiful instrument with a subtly elegant look, which is given an extra touch of extravagance by the black Hardware and gold pickup covers. The three-piece maple neck with its flat profile sits comfortably in the hand and enables effortless playing right up to the highest registers. Thanks to Satin-Finish, the playing feel remains supple at all times, even during long sessions. The 24-fret Macassar Ebony fingerboard with a 15.7" radius provides the optimum playing surface for fast riffs and demanding leads, making the instrument the perfect metal axe! The white step-off set dots serve as striking orientation points, while Luminlay side dots on the sides ensure perfect orientation even on dark stages.
The Evertune bridge ensures a stable string action, while the active Fishman pickups provide brute sounds!
Fishman Fluence Modern Alnico & Ceramic Humbucker
The powerful tone of the RGR52ET-BK is provided by a Set active Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker: In the neck position, an Alnico model with a creamy, dynamic tone is used for Chords and leads, while in the bridge position, an aggressive ceramic humbucker can deliver powerful riffs and assertive metal sounds. The push/pull volume control can be used to switch between Voice 1 (organic, dense sound) and Voice 2 (precise high-gain tone) - ideal for cross-genre style changes. An additional mini-switch activates the coil tap mode, which also makes crisp single-coil sounds possible. In combination with the Evertune bridge, the result is a versatile sound tool with flawless intonation, perfect for modern guitarists with the highest demands on flexibility, precision and reliability.
