- Ever own a guitar that just has it? A guitar with "THAT" sound? This is that guitar right here! It has that early 90's death metal charm to it and I love that! I went ahead and sticker bombed it with a bunch of iconic and random horror movie images that I grew up watching and loving. It gave me something to do while I was still recovering from the really bad weeks of my injury. Then I went ahead and ripped off the old strings, cleaned the fretboard and frets, restrung, and reset the guitar up in the D Standard tuning I'll be using with it.
This guy is so genuinely likeable. I don’t know what it is, but comes across as a seriously solid dude. Rare. 🤘🏻
Definitely sounds the business. Glad you found a good one.
90’s Ibanez RG were amazing guitars. I’ve been lucky enough to own many Ibanez guitars over there years 🙂
Nothing beats an Ibanez from the 90's. I remember the Rg series, owned a couple. Great guitars
Wow a great tone love 90s style deathmetal tone
First thing I bought with my first paycheck from the US Navy in 1991. I still have mine. And it's a sick ass purple color, too. Gotta have a heavy right hand to handle this sucker.
I have a 2010 RG 1570. The V series pick ups are absolutely perfect for high gain tones. And this guitar stays locked in tune and intonation like gold in Fort Knox.
It literally hung on the wall in the studio for 3 to 4 months between the live floor sessions and lead guitar player coming back to do overdubs .
He got that baby off the wall plug that fucker in and she was still in perfect tune.
These late 90s early to mid 2000 RG series Ibanez they’re fucking off the chain. I would have to be in dire straits to get rid of any of my RG’s.
Kevin , brother man, I love the channel
Hands-down, some of the most brutal riffs on RUclips . Not to mention you come off genuine and down to earth. It’s always a good time brother!
Keep doing what you’re doing !
Killer axe bro and great to see you pushing through and NEVER GIVING up the metal!
Loved the RG550-750 , sweet guitar speedy recovery and Thanks for the time and uploads
Pumping iron and playing guitar go hand in hand. That's what we did in the early 90s
BAD ASS.
It's really good to see you again. Great video. I'm not into the stickers on that guitar but I'm weird about that, lol. The stickers rock though.
Bad ass "theme" on that Ibanez. And it's fucking OCTOBER! Rip it and kill it with that tone.
Thanks for the content frasard killer guitar wish you a speedy recovery
Nice find! I have a '94 RG 550LTD with the same pickups and trem. Original owner, bought it new in 1994 for a $1k and still have it today. It's MIJ, (pre-prestige), from the legendary Fujigen factory. Came with that same molded OHC also. EDIT - You made me feel like playing mine so I dusted her off. I was wrong, this one has the V7, S1, V8 pickups.
That sounds amazing, the first hit of the strings sent a tingle down my spine .
Quick recovery Kevin 👍
I have the same guitar that I jam through a dual rectifier. The tone will just rip your face off!
Does your one have balls? Apparently his has the biggest balls of them all... in stark contrast to his actual balls, which are very small and atrophied.
Very nice and mean sounding guitar. Hope you recover quickly from injury. Am diggin' the live footage at the end of the video.
All the RG models after the Vai era are amazing. I cant believe the hardware has not surpassed them in 2024.
Love it when an axe meets / exceeds your expectations! Congrats man!
the Egnater is for a gentlemen of absolute culture and class
Those V8 and V7 pickups are hated on but with a heavy right hand they sound amazing to my ears. Have mine in my 2005 RGA121 since I bought it - would never take them out.
They aren’t bad per se, they just aren’t metal/shred pickups, and 99.99% of people buying a Prestige RG want to shred on it.
I own one of these (2002) and it's phenomenal! Nice warm and aggressive sound from those V pickups. Neck is awesome...the proper nitro wizard with the AANJ. It's wicked! They don't make them like they used to.
can't go wrong with an Ibanez RG
I love it Kevin! "I play rhythm guitar" Keep up the great content bro!
if i were 6 year old kid and saw that dude, i wouldnt give a fuck about being an astronaut or a superhero. Id want to bulk up and play some heavy riffs.
Fooking brutal.
Was bitching hearing you rip on 115! Take care of yourself and feel better dude!
Awesome man. First off I hope everything heals up well. Second I love rhythm playing too. Nothing beats a good heavy chug.. Nothing. I'm gonna take another look at my old '90's Ibanez I have sitting in a closet. It was one of the cheaper ones but I always thought the guitar played and sounded great.
screw the haters, that guitar sounds awesome and those riffs were killer. can't wait to really hear what u write with this guitar.
Right on Kevin. This guitar really brings back memories. My dad bought me this exact model and color when I was a kid from the guitar shop in downtown Brighton Michigan. Hell maybe this is the exact guitar! I can’t really remember what happened to it. I probably traded it to Marty at Motor City for a BC Rich. Great to see you enjoying this guitar ! 🤘🏻
Bro a fine tuner can't be more than a couple bucks
eBay has that stuff super available and cheap
He doesn't need them his guitars fine tune themselves in fear
Its not always a matter of cost, i have a chinese steve vai knockoff that needs a whole new bridge bc the "floyd rose type tremolo" was unlicensed and bc it was unlicensed and chinese they used different sized nuts for the finetuners than floyd roses use. Tho i doubt Ibanez would do what the chinese 'singer' brand did, n use completely different sized nuts on the fine tuners, but i wouldnt necessarily rule it out completely if it was the early 90s especially
Tho it sounds like he knows its an actual licensed Floyd tho
Shut up nerd
@@SNOwyte
Doesn't matter if it's licensed or not.
The licence was just an answer to the cheap knock offs (Kahler practically went bust by staying USA and trying to take down the rip-offs) and so that guitar companies could use cheaper Floyd type bridges on their less expensive instruments.
Even amongst the "licenced" bridges, there were a lot of variations in quality and design, even down to whether the bridge uses metric or imperial threads on things like the posts and fine tuners.
The patents expired some time ago, so there's no need to stamp "Licensed under Floyd Rose patents" on any locking fulcrum bridge anymore.
Absolutely awesome . Thank you for sharing your video ❤❤
i had the same guitar i wanted one when i was young i found a mij model in black just like yours i had a 100.00 plus a day heroin habit and one day i was short on cash so i sold it to a shop in town. kids stay off junk i lost like 28 vintage guitars and around 25 or 26 vintage tube amps. been clean for aside for pot for 11 years now.
Stay strong I lost everything due my heroin addiction,going on 20 plus years sober . It’s crazy when you get so much time behind you it’s like you have lived two separate lives
It sounds absolutely amazing.
I have an rg570 MIJ. I suck at guitar but no other guitar feels as fast and playable to me now.
I have exactly the same one!! I was 16 when i saw it at the local music store. I fell in love with it immediately. I’m 43 now it’s been a while but of all the guitars I’ve had this is the only one I kept. I’m a lefty so back then you really didn’t have much choice! And french too so we probably didn’t have so many cool guitars as you guys in the US. It looked mean and metal! All my friends were into nirvana and had like stratocaster type of guitar. So it was love at first sight when i saw that black beast.That neck is so thin and fast it’s a fantastic axe. Got a dimarzio x2n to replace the bridge.
Bro, I'd love to see you put a pedalboard together, that setup could make for some interesting content, going into depth on the pedal selection etc.
i love you man, glad you are still doing youtube, i think I already saw videos of you back in 2008
I have 2 Japanese made RG470s. They have the V7 V8 pickup combo. Ya they are awesome just like the 570s.
Yoo nice guitar man.
Early 1990s, late 1980s RG stand above. Its my understanding that the Wizard 1 necks were handmade, so there is some variability resulting in some "mojo". These are going real cheap right now. Good time to grab one. Probably cheap due to the reissues and also people needing to dump gear.
Bought an RG370DX back in the day, now 20-odd years ago! Heck these are vintage guitars now in the eyes of some! Got an incredible punk sound out of it, these days have one hanging on the wall and it's a superb instrument. Locked the trem on mine also (us punks are simple folks, more headache than advantage for me)
its a kool tone, the pickups were always a lil muddy and not too tight sounding for me. I had a 270DX and it was very nice and it was my first guitar and i changed out the pickups to Dimarzio's and that was a dream! I still have it but it has some mileage on it.
Would you sell it?
God damn that tone is punishing. The Egnater + the Ibby ROARS
The ol Crate Amp sound from the 90s . Super cheap, super good
Crate was an awesome company. I had a 2-12 combo and a three channel half stack. Sure they were not the most expensive but they sounded great for metal.
Hey brother! I had to take off 2 years due to a rotator cuff injury, wishing you a speedy recovery. Killer video too! keep rockin man.
Lol you can’t play guitar with a bad rotator cuff? 😂😂😂 absolutely must be made of baby sh**……
Dude this guy knows hardness I bought most of em. Thanks. Armageddon looks good. B
Japanese and Indonesian made Ibanez's were always a good value in the 90's.
Hell yea the King is back!🤘🤘🤘
its perfect!
I have the 2000 RG550 Custom Japan model I bought used in 2000 being the second owner of it other than the guy who customized it. Still in great shape but about the have the frets resurfaced, but I love it! That one is sweet! I'm shocked the paint has held up on it so well. Mine stays in a case and the paint is starting to crackle now.
Spare a thought for Jason Becker had a great career ahead of him was doing what he wanted then blammo A.L.S full gradual paralysis couldn't think of a worse guitar players nightmare im glad your recovering I myself just recovered from 4 weeks of gout in my arm and hands and shoulder wasn't sure it would recover so good but thank god it has
Frets look awesome, bro!
OG sound OG guitar this is your best sounding guitar brutal heavy how it should sound
I got a beat up early 2000s rg570 from GC not too long ago, and it is pretty sweet. They do sound awesome! I still need to do all the things you do in this video. I actually like taking care of my guitars but it's just a matter of finding the time.
I have a Jackson Dinky DX1 my mom bought it for my 14th birthday in 95
It was my first “nice guitar”
It was $900 all black shark fin inlays
I still have it I believe it was made in China but damn it’s nice
Keg just dropped the meanest L + Ratio + no maidens I have ever heard.
Got my son in law that head n cab...ARMAGEDDON!!!!
dam kevin that thing sounds mean. I sold a 1991 570 for like $200 i miss it.
Кев, ты шикарный музыкант, гитарист, спортсмен и мужик!!! 👍🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
Avoiding more back pain is such a vibe
Dude reminds me of a heavier version of Kane Roberts. Remember him? He's my favorite Alice Cooper guitarist all time. Dude brought the horror element sounds to the Alice catalog. 🤘
Beautiful guitar! 🤘
Yeah!! That sounds tough as fuck!! Never seen that amp before that's badass!!
I sold my ibanez rg 270 over 20 years ago.. I still regret it to this day
i own the rg470L made in south Korea and i paid 250 for it used and its my favorite guitar. it always stays in tune and sounds perfect with any amp i put it through. korea makes some killer guitars. and the action is smooth and the neck is super thin which makes playing it a dream. i have guitars i paid 2 grand for and i still prefer my rg470 lol. they don't make em like this anymore
Don’t worry about the knobs, your rhythm playing is insane
Kevin I wish you could of played in Schnauzer ❤
Bought a black RG570 back in 99. Changed the Bridge pup to a Dimarzio X2N because of Chuck reasons, Will have to fire it up tonight
I had an rg550dx with the V7/V8, and it only cost me $399 new back around 92 or 93. I shouldn't have sold it.
16:05 calm down Ola!
haha i said the same
great guitar and hope you makes good music from it
I think the V series pickups are Gotoh or something else Japanese.
People think they are DiMarzio because of the allen pole pieces and Ibanez has a long history with DiMarzio due to their artists (Satch/Vai/Timmons/Petrucci) using them.
Funny enough, if you swap the magnets in the V7/V8 neck and bridge humbuckers over, you get something pretty close to the actual USA DiMarzio/Ibanez IBZ pickups.
Strangely, The V7 (Neck) is Ceramic and the V8 (Bridge) is Alnico V. Thats why the swap makes such difference where the V8 with a ceramic becomes a Super Distortion and better for definition but the V7 with the Alnico V loses a bit of its clarity with the swap. 🍻I have one guitar swapped and another not.
Like that amp!!!
It ain’t killing time bro it’s living life
Kyle Bull is a cool dude. Very nice Ibanez, Brother. That's all my buddy plays. Me, I'm all over the map. From Friedman, To Les Paul, To Jackson, To Charvel, To Ernie Ball Music Man, To PRS, etc. For amps, it pretty much has to be a Plexi, Modded Plexi, or Soldano SLO. What kind of speakers are you running in your Egnater 4x12. My favorite speakers are Celestion UK Made Greenbacks. As far as speaker combos go in a 4x12...I like the Friedman 4x12 speaker combination. 2 Celestion Greenbacks on Top, and 2 Celestion Vintage 30's on the Bottom. Bruce Egnater from Michigan, was Dave Friedman's mentor. Do you Friedman Amps and Guitars, Kevin? They're mindblowing. None of it is cheap, but you definutely get your money's worth when you buy Friedman Products. I'm waiting on my Friedman Red Tolex 20 watt Jake E Lee amp to arrive any day now. Much Love and Respect From Sonny In New Orleans. Kevin, Since I know you like Jackson Guitars, You might wanna check out the new Jackson Japanese Guitars...They're awesome. I, recently bought a Jackson Japanese Series SL 2 with 2 humbuckers, a Gotoh Floyd Rose Tremelo, and two seymour duncan pickups..Jazz in the neck, and JB in the bridge. Much Love and Respect Brother. From Sonny in New Orleans, La. PS. Hope you get to feeling better.
Hell Yeah! I've got '91 RG570 with same pickups
What’s your stack, bro.
i see what u did there
I'm a simple man, I just oil my fingerboards with lemon Pledge.😅 But, I got an LTD Arrow 200 and it's got that dookie color rosewood, I used Pledge "for dark woods" and it actually deepened the color for quite a while.
Hey, Kevin! Why don't you put the ball end of the strings thru the tuners?
Muscles marinara!
I love Ibanez RGs. I'm building my 5th one now.
I have that same ghostbusters shirt!
Its almost just like mine, the headstock has the words RG series, and the floyd is a vit different
Old school meat head.. love it brother!
Awesome
Lol a table of guitar hard cases 😊
16:28 , man kino der toten hits hard
That is an Ibanez Edge Pro bridge there. Harder and harder to find, Among the best bridges ever made.
hows it so tight?
that sound is badass
MuscleCaulk!
Yup cleaning fret 0 to 9 should be good enough for lownend riffs
What was your injury?
10:18 🤣
Sick axe dude!
I cant remember where but i learnt a trick to use the backing plate to block the trem when changing stings
Holy trembolone sandwiches lol
Hello Kevin.I have thus model in Candy Apple Red,modded with a x2n.
The stickers give it a 14yo bedroom axe mojo, imho
Sounds good, have fun =)
Yassss that sounds wonderfully filthy! :D
