An RGD Designed for Low Tuning
True Ibanez "metal machine," the RGD721FA takes the concept further with a 26.5" scale length: long enough to maintain string tension in down-tuning without sacrificing the fast neck feel. Its RGD body shape and deeply scooped cutaways ensure smooth access to the highest frets, ideal for fast leads.
For Which Musicians and Styles
Built for intermediate to advanced guitarists, this 7-string excels in modern metal, djent, prog, metalcore, and melodic death metal. The rigidity of the extended scale and the precision of the pickups facilitate surgical palm-mutes, while the coil-tap opens up airier textures for clean intros and ambient passages.
The Sound
The flamed maple top provides brightness and definition, while the laminated ash/okoumé body delivers a balance between attack, presence, and sustain. The Macassar ebony fingerboard enhances articulation and response. The pair of DiMarzio Fusion Edge humbuckers offers natural compression useful in high-gain settings, with tight lows and incisive highs. The coil-tap expands the palette towards snappy cleans and more scooped crunch tones. The Gibraltar Standard III bridge optimizes vibration transfer for long sustain and stable bends.
