Ibanez 2023 Models ! What would you like to see ?

[Ibanez Rules]

I'm talking about just rejecting necks. Usually on necks maybe 10%.

Okay the Andertons video made these look MUCH better. The HSH and SSS Azs are simply glorious!

The 4427 is still available in Europe. The RGD4327 remains in all markets. A new fixed bridge RGD7 will be coming eventually.

Eventually as in... 6 mos?

 

[crushingpetal]

The RGD 4427FX, the blue fixed bridge model is no longer on the site. Did this model only last a year? The Black version with the Lo Pro is still up.

That was a sick guitar.

I’m really disappointed that nothing was added to the Genesis line. They could have at the least given us new 550 colors. I like the S besides the plastic 5 way. It does not go with the finish and aesthetic of the guitar.

I'm just happy they still exist. They just need a 7.

We get in the M8M models often. Unless you mean the M80M one. I have one of those coming next month.

I want it. I can't justify 6k for a guitar sadly.

@zimbloth any of the stoneman models? Or were they discontinued?

This isn’t related to the 2023 models, but I have a black 1991 540S7 and have been looking for a it’s red sibling. If you happen to come across one, please let me know.

Now, back to the regularly scheduled programming.

Any models/specs in particular or varies across the board? Thinking hard about a Pia.

I think the last one I saw listed was $3500. There were very few reds.

Everything, except for AZ's. Maybe JS's, different neck construction, JS problem necks don't give enough relief.

When are we getting these speedy holes on a production prestige

I called first dibs on a Prestige prop run of Wind Shears 2 minutes after they sent the file.

I have no delusion that they'd ever do it. Sugi one off's may be possible, it would be spendy.

Finally a prestige RGA! Do bad it has so much I don't want.. 27 frets.. just why.. Gold hardware yuck! and ONLY BLACK AND WHITE finish.. What happened to flamed maple?

Ikr! Finally a prestige rga and it's just another plain black Ibanez.

If I'm paying that much for a guitar it should have nice abalone binding, a sick burl top, some kind of sweet burst or fade finish on top in some modern colors with a natural wood back, satin finish without grain sealer so I can feel every burl and pore, modern hardware and electronics like fishmans, evertune, and Hipshot tuners with the little knurled cylinder buttons, stainless steel frets, something besides some boring ass brown rosewood like pale moon ebony fretboard...

 

[Alsvartr]

Yeah the Polar Lights finish in real life is so f'n cool. Its almost impossible to capture it in photos. It's been since 2011 or so that a MIJ RGD 6 has existed, such a welcome site.

Looks awesome in the pictures too. But y no tight end or Gibraltar? Those monorails look cringey and cheap af. Like a tiny little pos 7621 bridge for each string.

Just a Prestige production version of that guitar without the holes in the body and an ebony/richlite fretboard would still be the best looking S Series model ever. Absolutely love the look of that guitar. H-H with 3-way toggle gets rid of the awful 5-way selector aesthetics issue, offset dots look great, chrome hardware looks nice - maybe even better with chrome pickup covers? Would buy that.

You just like it doesn't have mounting rings LOL

Not an axe, but I really didn't notice this in their product range. It's not exactly something I expected; I know Ibanez has and had tried a couple of amps, the TSA series was pretty cool, the IR15 kinda flew under the radars. Seems they're not giving up on trying to get on that amp/preamp market in some way or another. MAP of $250, list price of $360. Seems to only do various amounts of gain though, doesn't seem to have something really clean, or even something near breakup without playing with the guitar's volume and pickups.
