Description
The Ibanez Prestige RG653DX Electric is built for players who demand speed, precision, and reliability without sacrificing tone. Crafted in Japan as part of the renowned Prestige Series, this RG blends the classic shred-focused design that made the model famous with premium modern appointments. Whether you're playing technical metal, fusion, or hard rock, the RG653DX delivers effortless playability and the kind of consistency professional players expect.
An ash body provides a balanced foundation with plenty of snap and definition, while the 5-piece Super Wizard HP maple and walnut neck offers exceptional stability and an incredibly fast feel. The bound rosewood fingerboard features 24 jumbo frets with Ibanez's Prestige fret-edge treatment for smooth movement across the neck. DiMarzio Air Norton and The Tone Zone humbuckers cover everything from warm cleans to aggressive high-gain tones, while the original Edge double-locking tremolo and Gotoh tuners provide outstanding tuning stability, even with the most demanding tremolo techniques.
From its acrylic and abalone block inlays to the tortoiseshell pickguard and understated low-gloss finish, every detail reflects the Prestige Series' attention to craftsmanship. We think this is an outstanding choice for players looking for a Japanese-built RG that delivers classic Ibanez performance with premium hardware and dependable stage-ready reliability.
