A metal-influenced electric built for tonal diversity, speed and durability.
The RG5170B RG Prestige Series Electric Guitar from Ibanez is a high-performance machine, forged by three decades of metal. Designed for both speed and strength, the RG5170B is built with a Super Wizard HP neck for extra-smooth playing, a Macassar ebony fretboard and a basswood body for a natural tone. Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers deliver an aggressive tone and a powerful attack without excess noise, while the Fluence Single Width pickup offers a warm, clear tone and stunning punch, featuring the same quiet operation as the humbucker. Plus, the legendary Lo-Pro Edge bridge offers even more versatility along with maximum playing comfort due to its streamlined profile and recessed fine tuners. A hardshell case is included for portable protection and convenient storage between gigs.
