Yeah, for some reason, I just can't dig the carves. I love it on ESPs, but it just doesn't look right on an RGA to me.

Anyone know that scale of the 30 fretter? I ask because the last frets look quite normal sized.
I made the UJR 'joke', because every time I see a guitar with a lot (e.g. more than 24) of frets, I think of him. I guess you're super serious about this, so I will stop making UJR jokes. For the record: the 30 fret RG does have something called a "neck pickup simulator".

Damn, that new RGA8 looks nice 
Makes me kinda regret that I already own one
And I want a RGD7321

Nothing major, but it looks like they added writing onto the headstock also for the 2011 model.

It's actually HSH. The single coil is a middle pickup, and it has a "Neck pickup simulator".

Little less than I anticipated, but y'know, it's not really going to fill any roles I don't already have covered, so I think I can suppress my burning desire for the purple one.

I'm really curious to hear this neck pickup simulator on the 30-fret RG. Depending on how it sounds I might need to find something similar for my own guitars.

EDIT : Nevermind, makes sense now.

is it me, or does the RGA8 look different for 2011?
2011:
I personally like this.
It doesn't look as cheap as the other model did.
But that's just me.

*i know this has already been mentioned in this thread*
the ibanez with 30 frets in my opinion is most properly ibanez's most unattractive guitar i've seen. and the size of the frets (the gap between the frets not the actual fret wire) above 24 look unusable. its official ibanez have gone insane

It's not a production model. It's a showcase. They're supposed to be trying out crazy stupid shit on them.
It's also less insane that that non-prestige double necked Xiphos they did last year...
I was hoping to see some birds eye maple or ebony on the new lineup other than rosewoods and plain maple AGAIN
some real maple tops other than veneers and solid paints. (thats what I meant about "nothing new at ibanez *yawn*")
but j custom and LACS are there so loan some money in the bank and buy some OH PLEASE!
and premiums? sounds too shitty. $899 for indo made yayks! those japs are making a fool at us maybe next year theyll introduce ibanez GOLD MEMBER!
and theyr making us believe that its operated by a prestige team harharhar (hey! my indo ibby is better than your MIJ or JEM!) its like a scam in the MARKETING WORLD.ibanez is getting boring and boring and boring...
no offense, I once was an ibanez lover for years until I looked at other brands. I was excited to see the new stuffs but just got disappointed

Read what Rich says. They brought down guys from Japan to work on these, and he says the fretwork is better than what the Prestige Korean S series used to be, ditto for the neck. And the quality is much better than Indo's.
