NGD Ibanez RG1527MGW

stretcher7 · 02-28-2012, 02:45 PM

I've always wanted a 7 with a maple board, and I've always wanted a white 7 so it makes sense right? Initially I was going to get the RG927 premium but when I found out this beauty was discontinued, and that Ibanez had 2 left in stock, I had to pull the trigger!

So far I'm SUPER happy and impressed with the overall quality. Maple board is so smooth playing and punchy sounding, and the edge pro is a surprisingly good upgrade! I'm going to upgrade the pickups of course, thinking Crunch Lab or D Sonic paired with a Liquifire. What do you guys think?

Here's the pics:

Very Nice! Congrats!

brynotherhino · 02-28-2012, 03:47 PM

Sweet guitar man! And the crunchlab pairs really well with my buddies 1527, it sounds friggin huge.

Feeking killer !!! Do want !

Happy NGD

Goatchrist · 02-28-2012, 04:20 PM

OMG! Love it! Love white guitars! Congrats!

Happy NGD...I dig the maple!

Looking good dude!

That's an Edge Zero though.

that's what I meant!

Pikka Bird · 02-28-2012, 05:32 PM

Never saw them with Edge Zeroes... Shouldn't there be a Z in the model name somewhere? 1527MZ GW or something?

It really looks killer no matter what. I am a little bit jealous, although I prefer the Pro to the Zero.

Santuzzo · 02-28-2012, 05:35 PM

Congrats!

I love the RG1527M, such a sexy guitar!

Relinquish69 · 02-28-2012, 06:16 PM

maple boards add a different character to the overall sound. I like the colour scheme more. nice score!

I vote that this gets rated nsfw because I went from zero to fap in a glance.

GATA4 · 02-29-2012, 01:19 AM

So nice! Congrats!

jordanky · 02-29-2012, 01:27 AM

Fantastic guitars man. I just got rid of one. Drop a D-Sonic in the bridge of that thing and you'll love it even more! Also, convert it to full floating. I absolutely grew to hate the Zero Resistance setup haha

Asrial · 02-29-2012, 01:48 AM

RG1527 is a killer guitar, and that one is just pristine!
HNGD buddy!

JPMike · 02-29-2012, 03:30 AM

Awesome guitar!!! Happy NGD!!!

MED · 02-29-2012, 03:34 AM

White + Maple. Always a classy combo. Congrats!

GXPO · 02-29-2012, 04:51 AM

Nice! All these RG 7's flying around and mines still in the USA... Nice score dude.

shitsøn · 02-29-2012, 06:39 AM

Nicest 1527 there ever was. Love mine! Put some pearl machine heads on those tuners, you won't regret it! They go very well with the rest of the guitar.

Happy NGD!

Andrew11 · 02-29-2012, 06:50 AM

Very nice, love that maple board. Happy NGD

sk3ks1s · 02-29-2012, 07:25 AM

Ibanez with a maple board...
Very relevant to my interests.

Shawn · 02-29-2012, 09:01 AM

Nice score. Congrats!

TheOrangeChannel · 03-04-2012, 09:51 AM

I love mine...the maple just ads so much definition to chords...and the snap to boot. I had to get my 1527RB setup the same way and the white one just pisses all over it (even with the stock pickups). The RB has a C Lab and AN7 and it doesn't sound close to the MGW.
Happy NGD man!

As an aside, shitsøn where'd you get the gotoh sized pearl buttons dude?
