Overview

Made in Japan with exemplary craftsmanship and superb quality.

As the crown jewel of the Ibanez line, the Prestige designation paints a vivid picture of the passion and pride of Japanese luthiery. These guitars, produced exclusively in Japan, have earned worldwide acclaim for their exemplary craftsmanship, superb quality and numerous innovations. Manifested here in the classic Ibanez RG format, the RG652MPBFX Prestige is an instrument worthy of its position as cornerstone of the Ibanez legacy.

The RG652MPBFX features a Mahogany body with a handsomely figured Poplar Burl top. A Birdseye Maple fretboard and exclusive 5-piece Maple/Walnut Super Wizard High-Performance neck provide exceptional playability and rock solid stability even under the most extreme playing conditions.

DiMarzio Air Norton and The Tone Zone pickups were chosen for the inspiring way they complement each other to create a wide pallet of tonal options that add fire and improve sustain, yet retain clarity. Wired through a 5-way selector switch, they can be combined in a variety of configurations that offer numerous tonal options.

The Gibraltar Standard II bridge is renowned for its precise intonation adjustability, playing comfort, and enduring sustain. Gotoh locking machine heads help provide superior tuning stability and expedite string changes. Hardshell case included.
