Beautiful, Amazing guitar that has 1 problem

Neegee 03.05.2023

I've been playing guitars for over 30 years, mainly rock & metal ... who owned about 8 other guitars (lowest-mid/high range) along with this one (my first Ibanez). So how does this compare? am I happy/ satisfied? listen me out:

What I love:
LOOKS: Its such a beauty, gorgeous, slick & high-end looking guitar... its like looking at a stunning super car at a car exhibition .... it talks to you: "you can play really fast on me!"
SETUP/SPECS: You have everything to desire as a guitar shredder/ soloist. Great choice of tones - amazing hardware , great vibrato
ERGONOMICS: It just feels perfect ... easy to play ... comfortable
NECK & FRETBOARD: super smooth & "fast-playing" thin type of neck & frets, with the right adjustment the strings perfectly glide along those frets. But there is one (big/small)* problem depending on your type of playing:

What I "hate":
NECK/FRET width&bevel: The neck is a mm or 2 TOO NARROW, and the edges of the Frets (the bevel) TOO Smooth. While playing the way you're used to on other guitars, the 2 E-Strings will slip continuously out of the neck , because the bevel is so 'slippery' and the width of the neck is simply too narrow!!

Now its partially also my fault - since my playing style is a bit on the 'sloppy & rough' side... but still, strings dont slip this way on my other guitars. Even while bending ...there are a couple of solos I simply can't play them the standard way cause they require deep bends which would slip out of the fretboard!!

Now due to this I am 're-learning' to be more precise when hitting the strings and avoid any minimal bending on the E strings , but still this annoys me!

Do I regret buying it - not at all ....besides the occassional slipping strings its my go-to guitar most of the times... and now I understand the Jackson vs Ibanez debate :)

The dream of owning a premium guitar came true with "stone" obstacles

tuiteraz 19.04.2024

This is my second guitar, the previous one was an ESP LTD Viper-50 for $200 - bulky, heavy, with a muddy sound.

So I was very impressed with the characteristics of the RGT1270PB. But it was not so easy to feel them at first. Because the guitar arrived with a dirty fretboard and the inability to tune it. The strings were rattling and generally not tuned together. Honestly, I expected more attention to a premium guitar for €1400. My first guitar for 200 bucks was ready to sing right out of the store.

So I took it to a luthier. They fixed it up. They also took out a stone that was pounding inside. I asked them if it was a gem, but they didn't show me, so it must have been a gem. It was funny, but what the hell?

Finally I connected the guitar to my Positive Grid Riff and my Macbook. The sound is magical on all pickup modes. It will take me some time to get used to the new shape and style of holding and playing, which is very different from the ESP LTD Viper-50. But overall, I'm happy with a dream come true.

Eine tolle Gitarre

peter-daake.de 22.03.2023

Die RGT1270PB-DTF ist Beileibe nicht meine erste Gitarre. Sie ergänzt meine Sammlung von Strat, Tele, Paula, Artist, Düsi, … um den Bereich ´Moderne Heavy Gitarre´.
Exzellente Optik, super Bespielbarkeit, ausgereifte Technik und gute Verarbeitung. Meine Empfehlung für die härtere Gangart und wenn jemand gerne intensiv mit dem Jammerhaken arbeitet. An einem Hot Rod Deluxe hat sie mich noch nicht überzeugt. Am Marshall JVM allerdings ist der Sound dann einfach klasse. Da wo die Paula dumpf wird und nicht mehr differenziert klingt legt die RGT erst richtig los. Auch im absoluten High-Gain Bereich bleibt die Klampfe immer sehr differenziert.
Paula und Strat bleiben in meiner Rockband erst mal im Koffer.
Zwei Wermutstropfen habe ich allerdings anzumerken.
Eine Gitarre für 1500€ ohne Koffer anzubieten ist strange. Das mitgelieferte Gigbag taugt maximal für den Weg in den Proberaum. In den Band-Anhänger kommt mir das gute Stück so nicht. Einen Koffer gibt es nicht mal optional. Ich bin somit auf Third-Party angewiesen. Mal sehen ob der dann auch zur schnittigen Form der Ibanez passt.
Die RGT1270 ist meine erste Gitarre mit Lockingsattel und Edge Tremolo. Der Stimmprozess ist anders und deutlich aufwändiger als bei meinen bisherigen Gitarren. Prompt bin ich auch bei der ersten Vorstellung der Gitarre im Proberaum am Stimmprozess gescheitert. Erst YouTube Videos haben mich in die Reihenfolge der Einzelschritte eingeführt und gezeigt, dass das Stimmen dieser Gitarre ein iterativer Prozess ist. Mag Oldschool sein, aber eine Gitarre in dieser Preisklasse sollte ein vernünftiges Manual haben.

So gut wie kein Qualitätsunterschied von Prestige Line

Peter1911 12.01.2023

Die Gitarre hat alles was ich wollte:
DiMarzio Tonabmehmer
-Super Sound, ausgewogen in jeder Position
-Hals Tonabnehmer super für Solos und Clean
Neck Through
-Ich liebe die Ergonomie von Neck Through, verstehe nicht warum ist das so selten angeboten, auser dem sieht es so gut !
Ibanez Edge
- Super stabiles Tremolo System, ist meine erste Gitarre mit Floyd-like Tremolo, lässt sich super leicht einstellen und anpassen
Verarbeitung und Optik ist hervorragend ! Von Werk war die Saitenlage so niedrig und keine schnarren oder sonstige Nebengeräusche, einfach Top !
Ich liebe diese Gitarre, bin echt froh dass ich sie auch gekauft habe, weil ich überlegt hab ob ich doch die Prestige die für die selbe Preis hier angeboten ist nehmen sollte, oder doch eine Premium. Ich wollte Neck Through, Edge und Dimarzio, Satin und Pappel Decke, und nicht so dünnes Hals wie Prestige, also Premium. Beste Entscheidung.
