General
An 8-string guitar can be a great challenge, but those who dare will have great musical potential with the Ibanez RGIR28FE, for instance. Its tonal range has been expanded to an F sharp and a B below the lowest E-string on a regular guitar. This Ibanez model from the Iron Label series meets the demands of the metal guitarist and its price has been kept to a minimum. It has excellent specifications by any standards.
Ibanez RGIR28FE: fast neck, strong EMGs
This guitar features a 3-part Nitro Wizard-8 neck and a string nut that is 55 mm wide. The neck is made of maple and walnut wood and has a rosewood fretboard with 24 jumbo frets. A KTS Titanium truss rod functions as an anchor point for this fast neck. This impressive instrument has two EMG 808 pickups which are the more elaborate versions of the well-known EMG 707 humbucker. These pickups know how to reproduce your notes to their fullest, from the lowest to the highest note and audible dynamic subtleties. A nice feature is the kill switch with which you can create a stutter effect during live performances.
