Ibanez 2012: The Thread

[guitarister7321]

OH MY FUCKING SHIT! Premium sea foam green Jem with original Edge and vine inlays? Yes fucking please! Sea foam green is THE shit. I want one of those more than the pink 25ths.

That S Premium is classy as all fuck. Prestige 7 with EMGs? I'll pass.

Also a 7 with EMG routes!

Did anyone get the new Guitar World??? Munky from Korn seems to be holding what looks like an 8 string version of this(minus the trem). Nothing exciting but hey...

Talked to someone at Ibanez and the black RG7 is NOT a baritone. =/

I agree. I want one too. I was ready to start a fire sale on some of my guitars, but the main one that would have to go would be my Prestige RGR1570. I think that would a step down, which I really don't feel like doing.

So the new Jem is going to list for $1399? The RG920QM lists for $1267 and retails for $900. So we are looking at a sexy Jem for around $1000? I hope so!

HOLY CRAP!

Original Edge.

I thought they weren't allowed to use that one anymore bc of patent issues or some such nonesense...?

 

[isispelican]

HOLY CRAP!

NO WAY!!!!

 

[Malkav]

HOLY CRAP!

What's the story behind this? Is there going to be a Meshuggah signature?

 

[LordHar]

Yes it is!

Well at least they're EMGs and not stock Ibby pickups. Also, does that look like a baritone?

I've wanted an RG7 routed for EMGs for the longest time (probably about 6 or 7 years now). Better late than never for sure!

Funny thing is EMG is talking about making passive sized 7 string pups now.

Meshuggah sig!



WANT! I hope it's MIJ.

 

[Konfyouzd]

Some of the pics in this thread show up as a red X... I'm assuming the Meshuggah sig is one of them...

 

[isispelican]

ibanez i fucking love you!

 

[MikeH]

That Meshuggah sig is nifty. Can't wait to see the hefty price tag on it.

 

[Don Vito]

The new Mick Thomson sig =

 

[Konfyouzd]

Anyone have different pics of the Meshuggah sig? I haven't been able to view the pics in this thread and the ones I'm seeing on Google probably aren't the same thing. I keep finding old pics of them holding 8 string Icemans.

 

[LordHar]

Meshuggah specs:

Prestige (MIJ if I understand it correctly)
29.4" scale
Alder winged body, Maple/Bubinga neck.
FX Edge III-8 bridge.
Lundgren M8 pickup

And I guess not cheap

They started reusing the original Edge on the JS and Jem models in 2010, I believe.
