Condition - Good (guitar has scratches and some dings)
As the RG Prestige history continues to be written, players have demanded new specs, new finishes and new thrills. In 2009, Ibanez has responded with the new RG1527M. The Ibanez RG1527Ms are all made in Japan by our finest luthiers and have the fast, flat Prestige necks, drop-dead good looks and double-locking trems, plus new finishes, maple fretboards and new pickup configurations featuring DiMarzio(R) Air Norton(TM), True Velvet(TM) and Tone Zone(R) pickups.
Features
The new RG1527M's ripping tones come from a V77 pickup in the neck position and a V87 in the bridge position.
The RG1527M features a 5-piece maple/wenge Wizard-7 Prestige neck with maple fretboard.
Edge Pro Tremolo
In the last two decades, no other guitar maker besides Ibanez has done so much to advance the art and science of the tremolo. The Edge-PRO represents the next phase in locking tremolos.
To avoid the problem of string holder blocks getting lost during string changes, the Edge-PRO's sliding string holders are actually part of the bridge and won't drop from the saddle unit.
With the Edge-PRO design, there's no need to cut off the ball end of your strings when installing new strings.
The Edge-PRO features a unique Sound Metal Chip on each saddle which helps increase sustain right at the most critical area, the intonation point.
