Ibanez RGD61ALMS RGD Axion Label Solidbody Electric Guitar with Layered Ash in Cerulean Blue Burst Low Gloss

The RGD61ALMS is a sleek six-string solidbody electric guitar from Ibanez that comes from their RGD Axion Label. This model has a layered ash and nyatoh body with a flamed maple top. Tone comes by way of two ceramic-based Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers that slot in at the neck and the bridge, respectively. Elsewhere, the axe sports a mono-rail bridge and black hardware, as well as an alluring Cerulean Blue Burst Low Gloss finish.

The Axion Label was made for metal, but offers even more for the adventurous players out there. The Axion Label models feature forward-looking developments in sound, playability and looks that take performances higher, deeper and heavier. Arm yourself with the Axion Label and get ready to break some new ground.

The RGD61ALMS features a 26.8”/25.5” multi-scale neck for an equalized string tension, creating a more “open” or “alive” tone that not only expands harmonic complexity, but also offers a more comfortable playing experience. Designed for playability, the slanted frets match a player’s hand angles to facilitate quick playing and extra-deep cutaways grant comfortable access to the neck’s highest notes. The Macassar Ebony fretboard provides a tight low end with quick response and the extremely rigid, super-thin and ultra-playable Nitro Wizard 5-piece Panga Panga/Walnut neck substantially increases sustain. The Sub Zero treated frets can stand up against the hardest riffing and string-bending.

The luminescent side dot inlays make it easy for players to perform on dark stages and match the dazzling luminescent Ibanez headstock logo. The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups provide an aggressive tone and a powerful attack without excess noise. The Voicing switch allows the pickups to have a modern, active high output sound or a crisp, clean and fluid sound. Designed for both stability and sustain, the innovative Ibanez Mono-Rail bridge minimizes cross-talk between strings and facilitates flawless intonation. Gotoh® locking tuners provide tuning accuracy and allow for quick, efficient string changing and the Schaller S-Lock strap lock pins hold a strap securely but make it easy to put the strap on and take off quickly.
