One of Ibanez’s fastest necks to date, the 5-piece maple/walnut Wizard III neck on the RGR6BSP provides players with a wide platform for all varieties of fleet-fingered fretboard action. This slim and super-comfortable neck lets you easily pull off lightning-fast runs, arpeggios, and hammer-ons while giving you the substance needed for fretting chords. Capping the neck is a 24-fret ebony fingerboard loaded with jumbo stainless steel frets, perfect for big note bends. From the first time you put your hands on the RGR6BSP’s Wizard III neck, you’ll know you’ve got a guitar built with performance in mind.
The Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers in the Ibanez RGR6BSP deliver the most sought-after humbucking tones, ranging from modern active to high-output humbucking. Unlike most wire-wound models, Fluence pickups serve up this massive tone arsenal without noise or inductance issues. Additionally, Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers provide you with two distinctly different voices for each pickup, which you can change via a handy mini-toggle. The RGR6BSP also brandishes Master Volume and Master Tone knobs and a 3-way pickup selector switch.
Whether you palm mute with precision or simply have a wild strumming style, few things are worse than getting hung up on your bridge during a furious performance. That’s one area in which the RGR6BSP’s Edge-Zero II tremolo really shines; it gets out of the way of your playing while still serving up maximum expression and tuning stability. You’ll barely know it’s there, thanks to its streamlined profile and recessed fine tuners. Plus, locking studs give you additional tuning stability. We can proclaim with the utmost confidence: the Edge-Zero II is among the most reliable double-locking trems you’ll ever put your hands on. So, pull the bar all the way up, then slam it down to the body all you want; you can follow it up with a jazz chord, and it’ll be perfectly in tune.
