Of course, there are tons of benefits to playing on a guitar with fanned frets (Also called a multi scale guitar), so it can be worth it. This, paired with the fact that the frets are fanned might get some getting used to. I was transitioning from playing a lot of guitars with larger necks, so the transition might not be much different if you’re used to playing on a smaller neck. I personally played one of their slim neck profiles on one of their s series guitars for awhile and while it did improve playing it took about a month before I was comfortable playing on it. I’d definitely play one before deciding to buy one because they do take awhile to get used to. I probably should add, the ultra thin necks on all of the “iron label” guitars are extremely thin. Yes, before you ask……this guitar does in fact “Djent”. It’s a brilliant idea, that more people need to try to play on. Which gives the bass tones more depth and clarity. Like other models, this one has an Ultra thin “Wizard Neck” that makes things easier.Īlso, if you’re not familiar with fanned frets, This simply means that the frets on the lower strings are spaced further apart than on the higher strings. It sounds phenomenal, and they also added a tone knob (not on other Ibanez Iron Label models) which is also nice. This particular guitar is absolutely perfect for some serious bone crushing metal. (More Details and pricing info on Amazon) The EMGs are active with an 81 in the bridge and a 60 in the neck. With super thin necks, and insane amounts of work testing every aspect to make this guitar perfect for the metal guitarist, I’d say this is a great guitar and pretty affordable. They made this series of only four guitars specifically designed for metal. The RGIb6 is from the “iron label” series of RG guitars. The custom, prestige, genesis, premium, iron label, and standard. This is the guitar most people think of when they hear Ibanez. The RG series has been popular for years and goes all the way back to 87, so you know this line has been perfected. (Which is actually kind of surprising considering so many metal/rock guitarists played on Ibanez guitars.) This particular model of Ibanez is the only six string in the RG series with an EMG……and one of only two six strings made by Ibanez equipped with one. Thanks for reading, and please let me know if I’ve missed any current Ibanez models equipped with EMGs. If you’re interested in other guitars with EMGs, I’ve made a list that I’ll put at the end of the article. (The type of EMG will be specified in the description for each model)
Only the current Ibanez models with EMGs are included in this list, older models have not been added. I went to Ibanez’s website and looked through all of their current models to create this list. This is a list of all Ibanez guitars that currently come equipped with EMG pickups, EMG pickups are exceptional for achieving great metal/rock tones.
