I just got back from playing in an epic show last night in Vermont, and to my surprise the guitar I imported from Ikebe Music in Japan last Thursday was at my door. Cool! It's the Prestige HRG7E Custom model.
I bought this one because I was in the market for a nice backup guitar with EMG 81-7s/no floyd, and seeing as i like unique guitars that almost no one has, this exclusive from Ikebe was a no-brainer.
It has a mahogany body, smooth as silk maple neck, EMG 81-7s, black satin finish, hardtail bridge, 24 frets, i think 25.5 scale (hard to tail for some reason), beautiful Ibanez case, etc. Another nice touch was that they ALSO included a new Ibanez gig bag as well as the case. I've never seen that before, cool.
Well the guitar plays great like any nice Ibanez, sounds just like I expected (one motive for buying this was to recapture some of the ESP SC607b mojo I had before I mistakenly sold it). I'm digging it! And no I bought this to keep, not something I bought cheap to have fun with then resell later.
Enjoy.

Damn that's hot!
It's really nice. This is probably one of the only hard tail Prestige Ibanez 7's outside of Japan. Just kind of cool
