#IBANEZ EX BLACK PEARL SERIES#
The body of the RG Series features sleek, offset pointed double cutaways giving better access to the upper frets.
The fretboards are usually made of maple or rosewood. For the virtuosic "shred" style of guitar playing or fast, aggressive thrash/ speed metal rhythm, this type of neck is often preferred. Flatter radius on fretboards facilitate wider bends and lower string action at the expense of comfort in playing chords.
The RG Series features a neck that is very thin in cross-section a wide, flatter than most (430mm/16.9in or 400mm/15.75in radius) double octave (24 fret) fretboard.

The RG in the Ibanez RG name, in reality, is now widely considered to mean "Roadstar Guitar", although current instruments differ significantly from the past Roadstar and Roadstar II series, introduced in from 1979 to 1986. Another was that it was meant to be a competitor for Yamaha RGX. One of the popular opinion was that Rocky George (guitarist formerly of Suicidal Tendencies, currently of Fishbone), was its designer, because Rocky's initials are the same as the model, and he was one of the first famous users of the RG model. The Ibanez RG was originally designed in 1987, the same year as Steve Vai's signature guitar JEM 777, and perhaps RG was received and served as a derivative of Vai's model back then.Īlso, there has been some confusion and mischief around the RG name. The RG's deep cutaway, flatter fingerboard and extended fret range (24 frets as standard) has made it one of the most popular guitars for rock and heavy metal music. The RG series has the most subtypes of any Ibanez model and is the most popular series of Ibanez electric guitars produced by Hoshino Gakki.
It rose in popularity throughout the 1980s and had the features that musicians in the rising shred and thrash metal movements of that time were looking for: a fast neck, comfortable body, powerful pickups, and a reliable tremolo system. That series was renamed "RG" in 1992 and all models since are simply known as RGs. The first model in the series, the RG550, was originally released in 1987 and advertised as part of the Roadstar series. The Ibanez RG is a series of electric guitars produced by Hoshino Gakki and one of the best-selling superstrat-style guitars ever made.
