Neon yellow S 25th is still winning..... that blue RG3xxv is very nice though

theo · 01-23-2012, 06:30 PM

props to you guys, that's some seriously cool stuff you've uncovered!

Dooky · 01-23-2012, 07:12 PM

I'm a bit sceptical about those RG2 and RG3 pictures. Something just doesn't seem legit about them to me. I see the pics have what appears to be Edge II trems but aparts from that the RG3s look exactly like the RGR465s - the headstock (no premium logo; but I realise the S 25th weren't premium) and finishes are exactly the same. I would've thought that if they're going to do a 25th RG565s they would've a least brought out new/different colour options (like the Flouro RG1s) instead of exactly the same as the RGR465s. Just seems fishy.

jl-austin · 01-23-2012, 07:23 PM

Fishy or not, I want that RG3XXV in blue!

The others, meh, that blue one with white pickups! I know, I know, copy cat, I don't care, it is hot!

I wonder if that means the S will get a premium limited edition for the S2XXV or S3XXV?

guitarister7321 · 01-23-2012, 07:30 PM

According to Ibanezrules, the S guitars will also be getting 3 more anniversary guitars in two finishes each. It's just a matter of figuring out the color codes to find the pictures of them, or wait until they're officially announced.

I've tried like 60 different combos of color codes for the RG4xxv, and I still haven't found it. I think it might not be on there yet.

That makes sense, they might want to see what sells first before committing to the 4th.

Bones43x · 01-23-2012, 09:16 PM

The RG3XX in Laser Blue is right up my alley. Although, I'd prefer MIJ, I'd still jump on it if it were a Premium model. And that's saying alot coming from me!

jl-austin · 01-24-2012, 06:40 PM

So.... I was checking out the RG1XXV's on the Ibanez site, and one of the things that caught my eye, was that it says that the finger board is bound. At first glance it doesn't look bound, however look closely at this picture, there does not appear to be any fret cuts in the rosewood.

That makes me think that the finger board is in fact bound, except with rosewood binding (instead of the maple that the other premiums get).

And also this one.

Blasphemer · 01-24-2012, 09:08 PM

How much will the RG3XXXs be?!?!

dres_x · 01-24-2012, 10:20 PM

However, according to this...the guy says that there are only 2 more launches of RGs...that means...no RG4XXV and no more Ss...

Saw this. If true, I will be so disappoint, especially after ibanezrules stated there will be 3 more launches of each. But why is it called the S1? I wish the 565 look alike would have been Premium, too, but whatever.

Not here it doesn't. UK site has dots on a maple board for the 2012 RG3250MZ-DY. 2011 had sharktooth outlines.

noname222 · 01-26-2012, 09:34 AM

I just wanna know when will Ibanez put Joe Satriani "Strat" in production?

Bloody_Inferno · 01-26-2012, 05:09 PM

^ Joe had stated in an interview that the blue JS Strat was only a prototype and most likely won't go ahead with full production. So I don't think it's gonna happen, which sucks because that Strat is awesome.

Here's hoping I'm proven wrong.

3074326 · 01-26-2012, 10:50 PM

We got in the 25th Anniversary RGs at work today. Loved the way the yellow one looked in pictures, but I hated it in real life. It looks like a yellow highlighter. The pictures make it look more yellow than the neon greenish color it actually is. The body color doesn't match the pickups at all, which was disappointing. They played really, really well though. Highly impressed with the feel of them.

Blake1970 · 02-02-2012, 12:35 PM

All take the S 25th limited edition green please!

chrisharbin · 02-03-2012, 09:10 PM

Ibanez seems to have a "no strat like but ibanez" policy

An RG with a hardtail and 3 SC's would surely sell?

Nothing would be stopping anyone from putting three singles in an RG1451. All you'd really need would be a replacement pickguard, and a pickup swap of course.

There's always the AT100, though you'd still have to swap the bridge pickup.

chrisharbin · 02-03-2012, 10:12 PM

Sure, but it would be so sweet to have a one kinda like a 1451 with the singles.

Those a kinda hard to find now btw. Not really happy with the colors of the new premium with the hard tail.

oremus91 · 02-03-2012, 10:36 PM

I can't see the image for that blue rg anymore, anybody have a mirror?
