Ibanez 2019 New Stuff

[Boojakki]

What the heck are "sub zero treated frets"? I searched Google and saw nothing.

Their way of calling "cryogenically treated" frets as such.

BTW: I kinda like the EH10, the MSM100, the RG5120M and the RGR4220M

Guessing it's probably something like Gibson's 'cryogenic' treatment. Basically it is supposed to harden the frets so they don't wear as fast afaik.

----This channel has some brief demos of a bunch of the new models.

Not sure how I feel about the Axion Label's having luminescent headstock logos.

On the one hand there’s nothing that would replace both my DCM100 and KM7 mkII. On the other hand I get to keep my DCM and KM7.

Goooooddddddd the J. Customs this year are just screaming my name. Impulse control in 2019 is gunna be a struggle.

Thank god the S series got no respect this time around. I'm such a sucker for the sabers I don't think I could help myself.

EU lineup looks slightly different

If this one had stainless steel frets I could not contain myself

Yeah man, i don't get why ibanez has so many 7 strings with 25.5. Once I played a 26.5 or 27 it was immediately clear how much better a fit it was for 7 strings if you're tuning below B standard. At least Schecter gets it.

weird as hell. Thats me out then. (although the brand new fan fret models with Fishmans and this one look sweet)

26.5 at least

 

[77zark77]

WOW !!! I'd love to have the AZ HS, the ATZ100 and the PGMM21, see I'm not so old and nostalgic !

This is why.

That's actually the only new 7 that's 25.5". The other four are 26.5" or 27". It's not a new trend either, as they currently have more 26.5" than 25.5" in the regular, non-Sig lineup, it's just most signature models are spec'd at 25.5" by the artist.

I prefer 25.5", but I really don't mind a 1" or 2" difference these days.

Fucking love it. The only thing I'm not down with are the fretboard dots because I think they're too big. Other than that though, grand slam.

Also, who thought it would be a good idea to throw a black bridge on that JBM with gold tuners and gold pickup covers?

 

[diagrammatiks]

Meeeeh

Are the polyphia guys trolling. They can’t be serious with those guitars.

The rgixl7 is easily the prettiest one. It’s an iron label so no one here will admit to liking them. But my kids eat all my money so I’m excited for some more backup options.

The rgaixu is now the rga60l. Umm ok Ibanez. That’s Nissan level nonsense right there.

One new s. Meeehhhhh

Available in the US too!

Once again all the cool finishes (and pickups) are reserved to indo-crap models. I mean, I'm not sure about the RGA's and RGD's but since they don't have the Prestige logo on the headstock I assume they aren't Prestige.

I think you'll see a "Made in Japan" header for those. Otherwise, they are not MIJ. At least that is my assumption.
