With the Ibanez Prestige RG752MPBFX-GFB Ghost Fleet Blue Burst, the Japanese guitar manufacturer presents a 7-string electric guitar that convinces with its versatile sound between rock and metal, outstanding playing comfort and chic appearance. Two DiMarzio PAF 7 humbuckers on the amplifier provide tight, transparent sounds, while two particularly precious woods are used for the fretboard of the screwed neck: burl poplar for the top of the mahogany body and bird's-eye maple for the fretboard.
When designing the Ibanez RG752MPBFX Ghost Fleet Blue Burst, Ibanez pays particular attention to outstanding playability and a differentiated basic sound that also precisely integrates the low B-string. Accordingly, the body is made of mahogany with a poplar top (Poplar Burl), while the screwed neck is made of maple, which is additionally reinforced by two locking strips of particularly hard wenge. The slim "Wizard-7" profile together with the flat bird's-eye maple fingerboard on the electric guitar offers the perfect race track for fast riffs and virtuoso solos.
The Ibanez RG752MPBFX uses two DiMarzio PAF 7 humbuckers with moderate output and ceramic magnets for a wide range of sounds between modern rock and metal. Thus, both pickups convince with a tight sound image that precisely represents every note with well-defined bass, high presence in the mid-range and silky highs, both in the clean channel and in brute distortion. The low B-string with its lively dynamics and balanced tone development is also integrated into the sound. The 5-way blade switch, which can be used to activate the humbuckers or their coils in various combinations, also provides additional sound diversity.
High quality hardware completes the Ibanez RG752: The strings are held on the body by the in-house Gibraltar Standard II-7 bridge, which supports the even sound development of the 7-string electric guitar with string guidance through the body and its solid construction. At the same time, string riders with long adjustment ranges guarantee perfect adjustment of intonation and string position, even when using thick strings and extreme drop-tunings, while the smooth surfaces offer the ball of the thumb a pleasant support on Palm Mutes. From there the strings run over a scale length of 25.5" (648 mm) in the direction of the headstock, where they are guided via the saddle to the Gotoh MG-T locking mechanisms. They convince with high precision and long-lasting tuning stability, while at the same time significantly simplifying string changes.
