The Ibanez 2017 RGIM7MH RG Iron Label Electric Guitar in Weathered Black continues the Japanese giant's ground-breaking work on extended range models, with a factory built model that boasts a multi-scale neck construction for equalized tension to maximise playing comfort. Adhering strictly to Ibanez' coveted RG series body profile with deep double-cutaways, the RGIM7MH marries together established design with modern appointments to perfection. As with other models in the Iron Label series, this beauty wears its heart on its sleeve, and is perfect for laying down heavyweight riffs that pack a serious punch.
RG Body Profile
The Ibanez RGIM7MH is shaped to the classic deep double-cutaway RG body profile, which has been a favourite amongst guitarists since its introduction over two decades ago. The slender curvature and shapely bevelled edges create a very comfortable playing feel, with a figure-hugging feel that enables you to cruise through performances.
Unique Tonewoods
The body of the RGIM7MH is built using mahogany, a rich tonewood that produces a dense midrange energy. Though this may be a seven-string model, the body retains a lightweight feel, and is perfect for those taking a step up from a six-string model.
5-Piece Nitro Wizard Multi-Scale Neck
Ibanez are the masters of crafting strong yet ludicrously thin, lightning fast necks, and the RGIM7MH benefits from their legendary skills. The 5-Piece Nitro Wizard neck is crafted from Maple and Bubinga, a pair of tonewoods that are incredibly strong but are given further reinforcement by the 5-piece design. The neck has been shaped to Ibanez's unmistakable Nitro Wizard profile, which allows you to tear through licks at lightning fast speed. The multiscale neck layout means that the angled frets match player's hands to accommodate increased speed across every string, along the entire length of the neck. Paired with the neck is a beautiful rosewood fingerboard, which is home to 24 jumbo frets that are adorned with side position inlays.
Exceptional EMG-808 Pickups
For screaming solo's through to thick rhythm, the RGIM7MH has been armed with a pair of EMG-808 humbucking pickups, one in the neck position and one in the bridge position. The pickup partnership gives all the power and aggression you could ask for, but roll back the volume switch and you will be surprised by the versatility of this blistering duo. Ibanez has fitted a 3-way pickup selector switch to allow easier access to the vast tonal library at your disposal. Tailor the sharpness of your response by attenuating the tone control to suit your playing demands.
Hardware Appointments
A Mono-rail bridge works alongside the high-quality tuners to guarantee rock-solid tuning throughout each and every performance - even for the hardest of players. The awesome sustain generated by the neck, body and pickup combination is preserved with precision by the bridge, whilst intonation is assured no matter how much your rock out.
The Ibanez 2017 RGIM7MH RG Iron Label Electric Guitar in Weathered Black is an exceptional model, and would be the perfect model for players seeking a hardworking extended range model for gigging and touring.
