Ibanez Prestige RG2228
MOAR PORN HERE: http://imgur.com/a/OGdTJ#0
- Ultra-8 5pc Maple/Wenge neck w/KTS™ TITANIUM rods
- Basswood body
- Rosewood fretboard w/Pearl dot inlay
- Jumbo frets w/Prestige fret edge treatment
- FX Edge III-8 bridge
- EMG® 808 (H) neck pu / EMG® 808 (H) bridge pu
- 1D#, 2A#, 3F#, 4C#, 5G#, 6D#, 7A#, 8F
- Galaxy Black finish
NEAR MINT CONDITION - 9.7/10 - Barely played - frets have no wear whatsoever - only a few minor cosmetic marks as shown in the pics
Not too much to say really about this mesmerising behemoth of an axe.
Considering how intimidating the idea of taking on 8 strings simultaneously was before I had ever played this, it's quite unbelievable how quickly & easily you'll adapt to the magnificently ergonomic neck on this thing. Playability is unrivalled & it really does just feel quite simply amazing in your hands - like butter as they say.
The fretwork is sublime as you'd expect from a high-end Prestige & the rosewood board is deliciously dense & chocolatey in its figuring. The bridge is also rock solid & fairly idiot-proof too despite the double-locking system. Not to mention how impressive overall build quality & finish is throughout the entire guitar.
In the ever-expanding world of pure bred 8-stringers, I would have to contest that this is still the definitive standard by which most are judged.
- Set up with Ernie Ball 10-74 8-String Slinkys
- Comes in OHSC/padded gig bag with Ibanez Prestige Owner's Manual & tools
YOUR SPECIAL PRICE: $2200 w/OHSC OR $1900 w/padded gig bag
THE BOTTOM LINE: Ibanez really did just absolutely knock it out of the park with these which is why they're still selling strong today & have a slew of celebrity users on the current progressive metal/djent scene. If it was good enough for Tosin Abasi - then it sure as hell is good enough for the rest of us mere mortals.

I am located in Kuala Lumpur so we will have to arrange for postage/delivery/COD depending on the situation.
I might be coming down to Singapore for some COD deals in the next couple weeks.
