Ibanez Unveils Some Puzzling Finishes On New RG Limited Edition Models

May 05, 2006
Ibanez 2006 Limited Edition RG guitars
Ibanez's new line of RG-style Limited Edition guitars features an interesting blend of craftsmanship and whimsy that you don't often see. The RGT220A's natural finish, for example, is actually burnt (or "basically barbequed"--take your pick) onto the mahogany body. Mmmm, is that shredded pork I smell? Stepping up the fun a notch is the RG20062, which is finished like a jigsaw puzzle, with interlocking pieces of flame and quilted red maple covering the top. The RG20063 takes a similar approach, but with a light and dark natural wood color scheme.

IBANEZ REPRESENTATIVE: Okay. This is a series of limited edition RG S guitars and SR basses for 2006, and up top we have a what's called a Barbecue RG. The finish is actually burnt on to a mahogany body, so it's very -- basically a barbecue. [INDISCERNIBLE] DiMarzio pickups and this is a neck through body RG guitar up here.

The necks too, this is a new process. We call these Jigsaw Puzzle RG guitars, and it's actually two different kinds of wood. The first particular one we have a flame maple and a quilted maple. And once again, it's an RG guitar, DiMarzio pickups, and this one is an [SOUNDS LIKE] oven volwood, and a flame maple RG guitar with DiMarzio pickups as well.

The fourth one on the list is a S body guitar, a thin mahogany body. It has a -- It looks like a simulated leather type of finish and it's the first time that we have actual sound chambers built into the guitar to give it a much warmer, hollow, transparent sound in this S body guitar.

The next one is a Prestige bass, which is a maple and bubinga Prestige neck through body and Bartolini pickups in there in the Soundgear body style which has the [SOUNDS LIKE] Fender neck through there and a very balanced [SOUNDS LIKE] body and sound.

I need awesome gear... I'd like a free gear catalog!
My opinion is awesome. I'd like to take a gear survey
