yeah , but you have to remember ibanez has gone way down hill in quality, all show and no go. As soon as you get one of these you will have take it to a guitar tech or luthier and get the frets done , so you set ur action the way you.like it without dead frets or buzzing.
drivecancel Its T O R N Horizon and i am just stati g facts about ibanez guitars now, back in the day they were built like a tank and the playability was epic, now not.so much
Excellent playing, not only in terms of musicality but also for demonstarting the guitar's tonal range and harmonic/resonant ability. Thanks for this, subbed.
Great playing! Super interesting style! can't decide if I like the natural part next to the cool color and burl. I wish I had a store near me that stocked good Ibanez guitars.
I do play 7s (yet) but I'm definitely going to have to get one of these as the RGD is one of the few Ibanez guitars I like, aesthetically speaking and this one is no exception. Nice playing btw, I take it you fancy Guthrie Govan and Greg Howe?
Hi Lee, would you recommand this model with those Fusion Edge more than the 7 strings model with PAF 7 ? i'm looking for the best modern metal sound possible for both rhythm parts and lead guitar sound
Amazing playing and thanks for the demo ! Which one do you think would be the more interesting between this and the jackson dka7 , for someone who mostly plays progressive/death metal?
Hi, Lee. Fantastic demo as always. I've got one question. Is this guitar suitable for playing in E standard tuning? Is the sound and playability affected in any way?
It definately makes a difference! I have this guitar and standard E gives more tension because of the 26.5 inch scale length. That is why these guitars are designed for drop tunings. If you want standard E then go for a 25.5 inch scale (or shorter)
ok you are just a bad ass player lol I would love the green one in a 6 string only 24 3/4 scale too bad couldnt custom order it that way. That is one long scale length for a guitar. I would settle for standard jem scale length (if I had to) Gorgeous guitar though
Ibanez is really steping-up their game this year.
Oh yeah, a person who can play more than metal on a seven string, praise the lord!
Holy shit, this is some of the tastiest guitar playing I've ever heard
+Sebastian Suarez thanks Sebastian :)

+Nicholas Paul not talking about a bass
I've this Tom Horizon guy saying negative things on at least 4 other Ibanez videos. Get a grip.

Always fun to watch your demos Lee. Greets from Turkey.
Thanks my friend:)
Excellent playing, not only in terms of musicality but also for demonstarting the guitar's tonal range and harmonic/resonant ability. Thanks for this, subbed.
Off to buy one of these tomorrow. Cracking playing as ever Lee, real delight to listen.
Man those clean chops where amazing !!! great work sir I'm sold
The thing that sticks out to me is the Fretboard. I have never seen a Fretboard like this anywhere else and it looks great.
Nice playing Lee, that is one beautiful instrument.
+Anquished Mate, the whole range is wonderful, Ibanez have outdone themselves...again!
+Lee Wrathe Yes, they've outdone themselves, even on that model number :P. Fantastic playing as always!
+Phenylalanin1979 cheers! :)
it's 2018 but I still think this is how you should sell guitar, keep up the good work Lee
I instantly subscribed. Fantastic playing man
+ERICx223 thanks! :)
It looks amazing and has all the Specs I would love.
Will go to a Shop in a few weeks to try a few 7-Strings. I hope they have this available.
Fantastic guitar playing

I wish I had a store near me that stocked good Ibanez guitars.
+Will Smyser thanks Will :)
How much will it cost?
Now I'm seeing the demos I'm struggling not to pull the trigger on one of these.... Damn that's a nice looking guitar.
I noticed that the guitar is not a neck thru. How would you rate it's ability to sustain?
Reverse headstock and floral inlay would be mint on this.
Godlike guitar and guitar player
I'm sold. Buying one of these for my birthday.
Gorgeous. Hopefully they will have something similar as a 6-string.
+anongrey they do! I have a demo of that coming out as soon as I get time to finish it so keep checking back here :)
Excellent. I shall be tuned in and thank you.
+Lee Wrathe edge 0 trem versions for 7 string?
+Atreyee Sikdar haven't seen any yet...but there very well could be!
This was specially designed for 7 strings.
What's the difference between the dimarzio fusion edge pickups and he bare knuckle aftermath pickups?
1:45 - What's this riff from?
would love this in a 6
This should retail for around £649 as currently announced.
+Zerusu thanks! :)
+Lee Wrathe That's tempting. Do you know if they'll be releasing a 6-string version?
+deathbastardable there's a 6 string but it not in this colour scheme/finish
Lee Wrathe Any idea what the RRP of that will be?
I'm ordering one for $999.99 :D
nice sound!!!
how much and when is it going to be available?
I do play 7s (yet) but I'm definitely going to have to get one of these as the RGD is one of the few Ibanez guitars I like, aesthetically speaking and this one is no exception.
Nice playing btw, I take it you fancy Guthrie Govan and Greg Howe?
I don't*
Factory tuning is whole step down. What you think about standart tuning? Could it be too tight in .010 set?
I use .011 in a strato
What does the average price tag look like?
Around $900-1337
Holy sh*te that guitar is beautiful
may i know which amp was used in this demo?
Is the fingerboard finished or bare?
I'm guessing it's tuned down a tone like the other RGD models?
+charlie day yes the factory tuning is lower :)

Definitely gonna order this as soon as i can. Do you have any idea how much these are gonna be running for?
Cool review. but i think people planning on buying this guitar like me, would like to hear some metal rythm on a guitar like this.
Nice Playing
Great jamming Lee! What tune were you playing?
Skervesen called: they want their Nebelung back.
+Phoenix Pagan blackmachine called skervesen, they want their headstock and body back
I would know, I do own one.
I do have to admit this was clearly stolen from Skervesen's line.
Sure the idea isn't original, but this is way more affordable and still plays great

Hi, Lee. Fantastic demo as always. I've got one question. Is this guitar suitable for playing in E standard tuning? Is the sound and playability affected in any way?
Thanks Avigya! Yes- absolutely, this demo was in standard tuning! :)
It definately makes a difference! I have this guitar and standard E gives more tension because of the 26.5 inch scale length. That is why these guitars are designed for drop tunings. If you want standard E then go for a 25.5 inch scale (or shorter)
price?
About $1000 depending where you live.
I think you invented a new genre 2:40 plus 😂😂
+Samuel S H K Musical hahaha! :)
Legit, i believe so too.
I want !!
ok you are just a bad ass player lol I would love the green one in a 6 string only 24 3/4 scale too bad couldnt custom order it that way. That is one long scale length for a guitar. I would settle for standard jem scale length (if I had to) Gorgeous guitar though
+GlacierNine +Ron Timmons Got to be honest guys, I've never really concerned myself with scale lengths. I can tell you that it plays lovely though :)
the made in Indonesia tag is the only thing keeping me away from iron label ibanez.I don't know why decided to stop production in korea
Lee I would drag my ass to any corner of the world to be as good as you on the guitar but still won't be as good
But does it Djent?
Put a Floyd on it please
Awsome fucking guitar I have the original rgd and I love the shape and sound but the black finish is boring now
Jesus Christ this guy can play.
Shut up and take my money! Actually... wait... tell me how much it is first!
+Bunters196 £649 :-)
+Bunters196 you should have asked the MAIN QUESTION! But Does It Djent? Cuz if it does - price doesn't matter.
+DoctorKekz it does! Easily can play drop G
+DoctorKekz english please.
+Paul Scheufler erm.... I guess this language we speak here is in fact English.
*(heavy breathing)*
No play djent. Thank you
Hows the pricing like?
