Ibanez Premium Marco Sfogli signature

[rapterr15]

From Marco's FB page: he's working on a new project with Alex Argento, Virgil Donati, and Andrea Casali. Anytime Argento and Sfogli work together they produce gold, as far as I'm concerned, so I'm super stoked about this. I know Donati recorded the drums for Jester's Tears, which is one of my favorite tracks of Marco's. Should be good!

I actually really like the volume position on my RG - It's excellent for volume swells.

That's why the volume is where it is

So does anyone have on yet? I still haven't seen these hit the stores yet in OZ.

Marco is a great player, but I must agree to this.

The fact his sig Ibanez is just a JPM without the double-locking tremolo just makes this worse. It would be no surprise if it came with some sort of multi-colored graphic finish.

Different looks, different woods, standard ibanez pickup choice...

I pre-ordered one, I'm expecting it soon.

The neck looks a good bit chunkier than the usual Ibanez offerings, which is unique. The world needs thicker necks that are still fast.

I would love it if they would release these in the US, maybe if the MSM sells well.

Literally every company has thicker necks than ibanez. No one else offers 17-19mm.

So has anyone bought one of these or played it? I didn’t realize the bridge has a built in trem stopper/tremelno feature. Really wondering how well it works to screw in place and go drop D and back again? Anyone tried it?

It would work the same as any other trem with a tremelno.

I don't think many people have played these as many stores don't have them. Judging from the last few years premiums I wouldn't expect it to be that great anyway. If you want a similar trem the JDM RG1550 had the same thing, I'm sure other models had it as well.

The SV5470 used to have the same trem, as well as the RG460
