Ibanez 2012: The Thread

[Diamond Dave]

Dayum, I'd totally buy one of those if it was orange/was a hard tail/had an Edge/had fret markers/had different pickups/had a reversed headstock/wasn't an S shape/was made in Japan/wasn't too expensive because it was made in Japan/was a Carvin.

I'm still crossing my fingers for an RG565 reissue.

They did that last year!

There. Honestly I totally dig this thing.

I don't count that Euro-only RGR465 a true reissue.

I'd prefer if they make it an RG1565 Prestige model, but keep the matching headstock and inlays.

A RG2228 with passive Dimarzios.

So Tosin has to start using passives for Ibanez to do this

 

[JP Universe]

That S series premium... Also I hope they don't release any bright green guitars as it will hurt my wallet!!!!

Where are folks finding these shots from all I see on the Ibanez news blog are the pink/yellow RGs...?

 

[CrushingAnvil]

Where's the purple up in this bitch?

 

[guitarister7321]

Another one. If I understand correctly it's a S Premium.

I it was a different color and had DiMarzio/IBZ pickups, I'd be all over it.

Also, anyone know how these pictures are being found? ibanez-news.blogspot's newest update is the yellow and pink premiums. No posts on there about the Saber or RG2228.

 

[LordHar]

Click the comments to the yellow and pink premiums, he posted these links there. Until now these are the only new ones I've found.

 

[KarlMagnusRobin]

I hope they make the passive-change on the RGA8 too, that would be sooooo awesome! But if I get a job til the new 2228 arrives I will probably get that one.. Just as I want it right out of the box! Yum!

Oh, and Merry Christmas!

if only it were a 7 string and had flame or quilt top ....

 

[Loomer]

Passive routed RG2228...

OH GOD YES!!!!

Is it just me or does that headstock look different?

 

[guitarister7321]

Yeah it's the newer headstock shape that is on the RGA8. IIRC, they also put it on the newer RG2228's.

 

[Loomer]

Here's just hoping the RGA8 will be with passives too.
