Nothing, still available on both 24 fret 700 series Xiphos guitars.

Look in the 2012 catalogue, the 1527z is nowhere in it.

You ever tried an original Wizard from the late 80s/early 90s?

....ing slick... I played a '92 RG570 with that neck, played faster than I have ever been able to in my life. It was like a freaking cocktail stick.

It was a horrible shade of purple, with loads of wear and chunks out of the finish everywhere, but nevertheless, had I been furnished with enough money I'd have bought it there and then.

raybeast · 01-07-2012, 05:10 PM

Not sure if anybody has noticed, but the new seafoam green jem is a premium, so made in indo...? Also, holy crap at the new dark sunburst S prestige, might have to get me one of those and a pink rg. But no SV line? Sad panda

Have you played a Premium neck yet?

Murmel · 01-08-2012, 03:43 AM

I've only played the wizII and the Prestige, but I don't really get along with any of them. The Prestige works I guess, but I think it's too thin.

Trust me, if that FR has a fatter, rounder neck and a slightly more rounded radius (which isn't going to happen) I'd be all over it.

Prydogga · 01-08-2012, 03:46 AM

Actually that's probably more likely, the non RG necks tend to be rounder and thicker, and premium necks are apparently in a completely different league from usual MII necks, so don't judge it yet

Murmel · 01-08-2012, 03:48 AM

Well, the Prestige FR's do have the same neck as the Prestige RG's. So I'm not sure whether I should have any hopes or not

dschonn · 01-08-2012, 10:18 AM

does anybody know the prices for some of the new guitars yet? if so please tell us and me

(especially the passive rg2228)

A local dealer should have the new price lists already, if not be able to contact their distributor for pricing. Just e-mail a dealer in your region.

theo · 01-08-2012, 03:29 PM

I am seriously going to try my hardest to get one of those pink RGs... such a cool guitar.

s4tch · 01-08-2012, 05:17 PM

RGD7421 price in an EU store:
Ibanez - Electric guitar Ibanez RGD RGD7421-BKF baryton black flat - Euroguitar.com (Black flat)

I think an RG7321 was around 400 euros, an RGD7420 is 680-700, an RG premium 7 black is ~700-750, so that's a price you could expect.

jl-austin · 01-08-2012, 10:34 PM

I hate to say it, but the RGD7421 is the one that I am most excited about. I will talk to my dealer this week. Want to see if it will come to the US and how much it will set me back.

The fixed bridge premium RG (from the euro brochure) looks interesting also. I think I would rather have the RGD though.

JP Universe · 01-08-2012, 10:44 PM

So far it's a win for me for Ibanez 2012..... The passive 8 string, the funky bright coloured RG and Sabre 20th, the classy prestige S series and Premium Sea foam Jems are all guitars I would not mind owning

I could own the Meshuggah Sig as well but let's not start that again eh? hahaha

Clydefrog · 01-09-2012, 09:02 AM

Would much prefer the pink guitar to have a maple fretboard and pink dots (or even black ones), but at this point I'll take any pink I can get.

.... wait...

vampiregenocide · 01-09-2012, 09:42 AM

I left a comment on the Official Ibanez USA facebook page saying they should make a Falchion 7. They replied saying they'd pass the comment on, so if anyone is on there like it and comment.

Show some interest.

s4tch · 01-09-2012, 10:37 AM

^ I just liked your comment on fb, hope it helps.

How 'bout this one then?

2011 Japan model.

Murmel · 01-09-2012, 11:12 AM

^
Mother of God...

I've been wanting a white FR for so long. I'm torn on whether I should get a American Special strat or an FR now. I'll be doing some extensive comparing between the necks I guess.
You're saying that it's a Japan only model though?

Edit: If it's Japan only, then that explains why I saw one in a Japanese music video, I tought it was a custom of his but I guess not..

Can someone provide me with a link of where you find all this stuff (if there is one)? Can't be arsed looking through the entire thread.

Bloody_Inferno · 01-09-2012, 04:53 PM

^ Yeah the white prestige FR is Japan only. And Tora has J-Custom FRs as of late.

The dude from Asking Alexandria has a white one though (LACS modded).

"Tree of life inlays" ?

someone on that site better fix that shit, cus there is def no tree of life anything on that axe lol

that aside, after the initial GAS attack of the Meshuggah signature, i'm now back down to earth and gassing more for the passive routed RG2228, mre feasible to get price wise. still if it were an RGD i'd be at my dealer setting up for a pruchase ASAP if i could. and that RGD7421 will def be in my collection

GhostsofAcid · 01-10-2012, 12:42 PM

That green S1XXV is calling my name. Assuming it becomes available in the US, I'll be getting one.
