right, it's definitely market-driven, as any product is. but, i think if Ibanez really wanted to wow it's fans, they could have made a *true* production model, which would have cost less, and therefore been more available to our Mexican buddy.

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.

I just realised that I haven't posted on that forum since February. I had no idea these RG 20ths would be so limited actually.

Ibanez hasn't been that great since 2000. This doesn't surprise me.

I can not understand why they don't re-release it considering the amount of WTB ads there are for people looking for one.

There seems to me to be huge holes in their product line at the moment and a lot of offerings of models for a flooded market.

FOR SALE
RG2127
RG7EXFX2
Pod X3 Live
Boss MT-2
Possibly my RG2027

If you have a CST to sell now is the time because I am possibly about to be very broke for a long time

In order to get a 20th, dealers had to order them in sets of 3 (one of each color). My locally-owned dealer passed on it because he could see the road flare orange one still on his wall 5 years from now.

I’m displeased with what Ibanez has done to the S series since 2004. But, that’s already been discussed on the Ibanez and Jemsite forums.

Dude, I don't think RG20ths even shipped over here. I know that they aren't shipping the 2228 over here.
