Ibanez 2024 NAMM

[l1ll1]

RGD, hard tail, reverse headstock, preferably prestige, will buy 3.

 

[Seabeast2000]

I hope they release a $9500 Paul Stanley model that I'd never buy.

 

[soliloquy]

I dont really care much about Ibanez's offerings, but Id be really interested if they give their FR body more love and revive that thing. Bring it back as a prestige? or even as an entry level guitar and i'll be happy.

 

[MikeH]

As I've consistently wished for since its inception, a Prestige Xiphos. 6 or 7 at this point. An Uppercut model would be sick.

 

[Jackillin]

This goes for the whole AZ line IMO, the colours and finishes are all around boring. The ICM and HRM are quite nice, but only available on the 2204 right now. It would be nice to see 4-5 solid metallic colours on the 2402.

I'm currently refinishing a Strat and Tele in lime green/gold sparkle, so if the end product is satisfactory I might just buy a used 2402 and repaint it to something nicer than meh burst.

Yes, exactly! I also thought about buying one and having someone repaint it for me, I'm also on the 2402 side! Right now I really love the Charvel raw ash finish with the neon colours in the grain, I have the 7 string raw ash just in black - love playing it, the body feels like silk, great PUPs but it looks SO boring the 6 strings where they added the neon in the grain just raise the look perfectly, but the floyd rose on their 6 string put me off so back to dreaming about a 2nd AZ. Sparkle, colour shift or something just in a cool colour would be a take-my-money winner for me 'cause my current AZ is my fave guitar!

I’d rather have 15 new signature models for YouTubers I’ve never heard of that I’d never buy.

That's one of by babes that the RGDR4427FX.

I think we'll both be happy.

why can't they do it with the dark wood sides as with the trem version. ibanez color schemes are all over the place.

 

[oliver_p]

Just give me a bunch of Genesis RG565s in additional colors - I aim to have one of each color
Other Genesis retro-models would be very welcome, too, preferably with reversed headstock.

 

[oremus91]

J Custom AZ would be so rad

I thought he was with Silvertone? Did he go back to Ibanez? A Sugi made cracked mirror Paul Stanley Ibanez could be cool. Like an M8M for Kiss fanbois.

Back since 2015. 6 sig models available with 2 just happen to be MIJ crack mirrors.

I'd like to see Richlite used as a fretboard to get some jet black glassy fingering surface.
Alternatively, just some solid colour 2 hum RGs. Maybe a Prestige with an Evertune.

 

[MASS DEFECT]

Im just waiting for a nice RGR Prestige with the typical sharkfins and two hums. Hopefully 2024 is the year.

I just picked up a couple of 520s that I'm thinking about getting FR bodies made for, the ultimate shred teles. Unfortunately they play so good as is I'm having trouble tearing them apart. I love the pre-Prestige MIJs.

Fretboard stickers is your solution... I'm not seeing Ibanez going the Sharkteeth / Sharkfins anytime soon...

Just don't break them apart. Get a neck for that, I'm sure someone else have already done that...

IMO Richlite is superior to ebony in every aspect, and there is not a guitar on which I’d rather have ebony. It just didn’t have the most strategic introduction. Come at me tonewood snobs!

Depending on the formula, you can have all the tonewoods in your fretboard.

True.
