Essential Information About the Ibanez RGR6BS Guitar
- Wizard III 5-piece maple/walnut neck ultra-thin and fast, 24 frets for unlimited modern playability.
- Fishman Fluence Modern pickups Alnico (neck) and Ceramic (bridge) with voicings and split for a palette ranging from precise cleans to cutting high-gain.
- Edge-Zero II low-profile tremolo with locking studs for reliable tuning stability and smooth vibratos.
- Stage comfort thanks to luminescent side markers and an ebony fingerboard offering fast feel, sharp attack, and generous sustain.
A Descendant of the Legendary RG Series
Designed with the "performance" spirit that made the RG series famous, the RGR6BS combines sharp ergonomics, tuning stability, and full access to all 24 frets. The specifications are clear: speed, precision, and reliability for both stage and studio, with modern and silent electronics.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
Ideal for intermediate to expert guitarists oriented towards modern metal, prog, metalcore, and heavy rock. The coil split and Fishman voicings provide enough versatility for clean arpeggios, articulated crunches, and tight high-gain rhythms without excessive hum.
The Sound
The Alnico (neck) / Ceramic (bridge) pair delivers firm lows, present mids, and incisive highs. The push/pull voicing switches from a modern high-output sound to a more open and smooth character; the coil-split switch adds snappier and airier textures. The nyatoh body enhances the warmth of the low mids, while the ebony fingerboard provides attack and definition. The 25.5" / 648 mm scale length and Edge-Zero II bridge favor sustain and tuning accuracy during dive-bombs and fast vibratos.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
For transport, choose the Ibanez M300C hard case or the Ibanez IGB540-BK gig bag. To maintain the original feel and stability, 9-42 gauge strings such as D'Addario EXL120 are perfectly suited for the factory setup.
