Those top two RGDs look like Petrucci is going back to Ibanez. They've stolen the JP's contours.

That's what I was thinking, the whole JP vibe. It even mentions it's likeness to the JPs in the article.

I agree on the JP contour/likeness. Thats not a bad thing at all in my opinion :)

2127? Odd, I wonder if it will have piezos. The 2027 had piezos didn't it?

The model numbers were actually 2127x and 2027x (the "x" signifies piezo, IIRC) and looking at that switch it appears to only have the 3-way toggle and volume I'd say more than likely not. :(

Tosin told me he saw the 2010 catalog when he hung out with his Ibanez rep before the AAL tour started up and that there were "Ibanez models with the cool forearm contours, almost like a Petrucci" but I was trying to picture how they would pull that off without ripping the EBMM vibe. I'd say they scored on this model, I'm not often tempted by production Ibby stuff but HOT DAMN that model looks hot! If the price isn't nuts I might consider grabbing one next year. :agreed: The finish on the RGD2120 is sexy as hell too, nicely done Ibanez! :eek:

Better than Large dot or Sharkfin I reckon.

I've totally gone off dots, I don't mind sharkfins. They've been done to death now though and they tend to look goofy on a 7 string neck (and I would like to be clarified on this :) )
