Left-handed electric guitar with Australian Blackwood top, DiMarzio pickups and locking mechanisms, including case
With the Ibanez RG652KFXL-KB Lefthand Koa Brown from the Prestige series, Ibanez presents an exclusive special model of the popular RG, which is a visual highlight thanks to the top made of noble Australian Blackwood and the fingerboard made of Marbled Rosewood. The body of the RG652KFXL, made in Japan, is made of lime and bears the eponymous ceiling. The 5 striped neck made of maple and walnut is screwed to the body and carries a fretboard made of Marbled Rosewood with 24 frets in jumbo format.
The Ibanez Prestige RG652KFXL-KB Koa Brown convinces with chic woods and versatile DiMarzio pickups.
Convincing DiMarzio pickup equipment
Two humbuckers from DiMarzio are used as pickups on the Ibanez RG652KFX Lefthand. The DP193 Air Norton in the neck position delivers a deep and warm sound with excellent definition, suitable for both clean and crunchy sounds. In the bridge position is the DP155 The Tone Zone, which is characterized by an extremely dynamic sound and responds excellently to the velocity. The 5-way blade switch selects the pickups in positions 1, 3, and 5 individually and in combination. In position 2 the inner coils of the humbuckers are activated together, resulting in a bright, very clean sound. In position 4 the neck humbucker is operated in parallel, resulting in a sound with reduced output and a thinned out mid-spectrum. A master volumecontrol and a master tone control are also available for controlling the sound.

The quality of the guitar is just amazing. It might be the cheapest prestige Ibanez but it gives you everything you could wish for. When I first took it out, I asked myself; jesus, what else would you possibly could ask for!? This guitar is just marvellous.
The case is perfectly suited for the guitar so there is no chance of risky movement inside of it. Just super tight, perfectly holding the precious guitar in its place.
The neck is super flat, I don't even think there is any flatter version of it. It's comfortable as well.
Action was really low right from the box.
Pickups are nice, and they are doing great job at almost every genre.
If you like the sound (pickups), hardware and the shape of it... Worry not~!! This is superb quality guitar!!
musicstore.de shipped the guitar in 2 boxes. 1st one; was securing the original box of the guitar. So you product box is clean and nice. Kudos for that~!!
