Ibanez RG8870-BRE Black Rutile Electric guitar

Selected Flamed Maple top (4mm) flaunts a beautiful wood grain. The Alder body delivers a well-balanced bright tone, enriched resonance and sustain. The chambered body not only contributes to a lighter overall weight, but also adds just the right amount of bottom and clarity, which is preferred by today's metal players. Super Wizard AS neck has a more rounded shape towards the bass side, while still retaining the overall thickness of the Super Wizard profile– 17mm at nut and 19mm at 12th fret. This asymmetric shape provides a more comfortable grip and natural feel. Macassar Ebony fretboard produces tight lows and mid range along with strong attack in the highs and quick response with rich sustain.

The DiMarzio PAF 36th Anniversary pickup features a soft magnetic field, sweet tone, perfect balance between warmth and clarity and the ability move between clean and distorted by just the intensity of the pick attack. This pickup, combined with the DiMarzio True Velvet and Tone Zone offers depth, warmth and very rich dynamics. The coil tap switch adds sound and tonal variations for both pickups. The legendary Lo-Pro Edge bridge offers maximum playing comfort with its streamlined profile and recessed fine tuners. Locking studs contribute to tuning stability. Gotoh machine heads provide superior precision, a smooth feel, and excellent tuning accuracy.

Pickups Configuration

Pickups Configuration: HSH

The humbucker-single-coil-humbucker configuration means that the guitar is equipped with two humbucker pickups and a single-coil pickup in the middle. This setup combines the powerful, full tone of the humbuckers with the clear, crisp sound of the single-coil, offering a wide range of tonal possibilities for a variety of musical styles, from clean tones to heavy distortion.

Fretboard

Fretboard: Macassar Ebony

Macassar ebony is a hard, dense wood with a distinctive striped pattern in shades of black and brown. It offers a clear, crisp tone with excellent response and sustain. The Macassar ebony fingerboard is valued for its luxurious appearance and durability. This contributes to the precise playability and longevity of the instrument.

Тype: Superstrat

The Superstrat is a type of electric guitar based on the design of the Stratocaster, but modified for a more aggressive style of playing, especially in the hard rock and metal genres. It has a solid body, often with powerful humbucker pickups for a more powerful and distorted sound. Superstrat guitars often have an improved tremolo system (like the Floyd Rose) and a faster neck for technical playing. This type of guitar is designed for the modern guitarist who demands more versatility and performance.
