Ibanez RG770DX Limited Reissue Electric Guitar with Case

The Ibanez RG770DX Limited Reissue Electric Guitar has all the great details of the original 1987 model plus some improvements. The RG770DX's basswood bodies, pickups, pickguards, knobs, headstocks and sharktooth inlays are all either Ruby Red or Lazer Blue. As in 1987, these RG's feature DiMarzio/IBZ pickups, the original Edge tremolos and, most importantly, the original fast and flat Wizard necks. The Wizard neck has the same dimensions as the original but now features a 5 piece maple/walnut construction for even greater strength and stability.

The RG770DX features a thin neck with a wide, almost flat, double octave (24 fret) fret board, great for the performance of chords and solos. The body of the RG Series features sleek, offset pointed double cutaways giving better access to the upper frets. This limited reissue features an Ibanez Edge Tremolo; a double locking tremolo system for the electric guitar very similar in design to that of the original Floyd Rose. The Edge offers a number of improvements from the Original Floyd Rose; it contains a heavy sustain block, locking studs (for improved tuning stability), and a pop-in arm. Compliment the playability of this guitar with a matching headstock and sharktooth inlays for a seriously rocking look!

RG770DX is a peerless example of precision Japanese craftsmanship.



A few words about Ibanez…
Without a doubt Ibanez is one of the world’s foremost guitar manufacturers. The Modern Era of Ibanez guitars began in 1957 and since then they have enjoyed incredible success. They continue to experiment with edgy designs and finishes but have never lost track of their roots. Their amazing Artcore line of hollowbodies are some of the most sought after guitars in the world and their RG line is a must-have for rock and metal fans alike. And don’t discount their bass guitars, cherished by musicians the world over. This is a company that can do it all - straight-ahead rock models, elegant hollow bodies and everything in between. They even have a nice line of pedals and accessories that pros and amateurs have grown to love. Find out for yourself why some performers won’t play anything else but Ibanez.

Subject:Ibanez RG770DX
Quality: Excellent quality, though I had the poor tremolo bar, which I could not replace through the factory nor any outlet because of it's design, which was / is not typical.
Sound: Tonal variations are exceptional. It's wired to sound Stratty, Les Paulish, and resonates tone of it's own with subtle edge. It's light weight basswood body reverberates bell tones with precise intonation, and adjustability.
Reliability: After 2 years, the tremolo bar snapped off. When attempting to order a new one, I ended up having to call Ibanez directly, upon which I was told I could only buy the entire tremolo system for $350. I ended up very upset about that, but found a replacement. It was strange how it snapped on a dive one day. I have 2 replacements now, and neither of those have broke.
Overall: An electric guitar with a neck like a classical guitar, but thinner. Once you start playing it, you will see how it demands accuracy in your finger techniques, yet even mistakes sound good when the strings are perfectly in tune. I love this guitar. I bought it through AMS in 1990..
Playability and Feel: Plays like a classical guitar, and as such, one can use finger plucking or picking. It is very playable and it actually improved my playing.
Tone: Tonal variations are glassy to mid, to deep thick. The bridge does have a thinner sound then what I expected, but it not enough to disturb me from adjusting a preamp or amp.
Finish: Great
Action: Perfect
Skill Level: Intermediate
