Built to handle drop tunings, the agile playability and scorching output of the Ibanez RGDRB71 Iron Label seven-string comes reinforced by an extended 26.5 inch scale length which, combined with the super-deep cutaways, hands guitarists maximum comfort and effortless control, whether they're spinning tight rhythms or gymnastic-grade solos. The solid nyatoh body, meanwhile, packs out the foundation with a rich and warm bass-response and strengthened mid-range - everything you need to build a fully certified metal guitar. The raw power that this model is able to wield is hidden away beneath a satisfying, matte-black paint-job and minimalist aesthetics. The Ibanez RGDRB71: Dual-Coil Power to Single-Coil Subtlety The maple neck of this Ibanez Iron Label Series offering has been lightly roasted to remove excess moisture, boosting temperature and humidity resistance and leaving things more stable and more reliable. The neck has been finished with a thin, snug and fast-feeling Wizard II-7 profile and combined with a deluxe ebony fretboard to push up the treble attack and lengthen the sustain. Twenty-four jumbo frets have been laid out for your enjoyment, plus a set of Luminescent side dots that helpfully glow in the dark, providing clear guidance. When it comes to the output, the DiMarzio D Activator humbuckers mounted at the neck and bridge bring plenty of modern versatility, setting you up with defined and open guitar sounds, packed out with accurate basses and sweet overtones. To double your tonal options, simply flip the coil-tap switch and access an extra palette of single-coil style sounds. The Full Package The innovative Mono Rail bridge takes care of high-precision string-separation, resulting in masses of sustain and expert stability, as well as highly accurate intonation per string. The bridge is joined by a full pack of Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads, which boost the tuning stability and speed up string-changes, all in one shot and, since the RGDRB71 is factory-tuned down by two semitones to A, D, G, C, F, A, D, you're getting deep and heavy, ground-shaking sound right out the box. An expert blend of performance, versatility and understated style, the Ibanez RGDRB71 is virtually a necessity for any self-respecting modern metal guitarist.
