Ibanez 2012: The Thread

[oremus91]

All of Ibbys RG8s are fixed bridge, they just look like trems.

I think you misunderstood my original statement.

I wonder when the RG2 will be released? Have we gotten word if there will be an S2?

Logically it would be quarter 2, so soon I'd think. I still can't find a S2, but tbh I've just about given up on it. I think they might have stopped making it easy haha.

According to one of the videos earlier in the thread there isn't an S2xxv or S3xxv.
Edit: just rewatched the vid. There will be two more launches of RG guitars at 2 month intervals, so it "transcends the whole year." hmm... 3x2=... does he know something about 2012 that I don't? ...

 

[jl-austin]

I wouldn't mind having a pink RG, I am not sure I want one bad enough to blow $900 on one, so the $500ish RG2 might be right up my alley!

got to play a RG2xxv at my local GC today. It played very nice, but it had more finish flaws than the RG1xxvs did. For example the white around the aanj bolts are not glare, but white paint where it looks like they sanded through. Some black specs. The trem cavity in the front has spots missing paint.

What is the difference between the RG 1 & 2 XXVs?

The 1's were premiums, the 2's are not.

And is there any news about the S2,3,4 or the RG3,4?

Shark Teeth vs. Dots.

Shark Teeth vs. Dots.

This and also the 2s have inf pickups that are just black. Also have just a 3pc maple neck instead of 5 piece.

Ok, so........let me see if I've got this straight. There are newer versions of the pink/yellow monsters BUT they are not the same? I'm confused....I wanted different models completely (crying)

If they are in guitar stores already, why are they not up on the websites?

 

[ProgShredder73]

any news on the RG4XXV?

HUSA has been slacking lately.

Thought I'd ask here instead of making a new thread:

Who else REALLY wants to see a Premium RGA next year? Something resembling a RGA 121 would score major brownie points with a lot of people missing the model, I think.

Make it happen Ibanez.
