The Ibanez RGMS7 Multi-scale 7-string's distinctive fretboard and compensated pickup and hardware configuration give you outstanding playing comfort and great intonation all the way up the fast, super-slim neck.
The mahogany body's warm tone also serves up plenty of cut and sustain. And the RGMS7's Mono-rail bridge lets each string vibrate independently, while a pair of Ibanez Array 7 MS humbuckers delivers the amp-punishing punch you demand.
Designed for metal
When Ibanez introduced their Iron Label series of electric guitars, it was clear they were heavy metal guitars through and through. The Iron Label RGMS7 carries on that tradition, and it adds a multi-scale fret design for incredible down-tuned punch while keeping the higher strings feeling familiar and sounding clear. And Array 7 humbucking pickups will push your amp into tight, aggressive distortion. Ibanez is famous for their fast, super-slim necks. The Wizard III-7 neck on the RGMS7 is topped with a premium jatoba fingerboard for enhanced fretting dexterity and optimized articulation.
Multi-scale frets for comfort, tension, and tone
Multi-scale frets are an exciting trend in guitar design aimed at down-tuned and technical playing. Matched to your fretting hand's natural angle of movement, you get a longer scale length on the bass side of the instrument and a shorter scale on the treble side. Not only does this offer you better intonation across all seven strings, but the higher tension on the low strings adds muscle and punch to your tone. The multi-scale neck construction equalizes that tension, resulting in a vibrant, open tone. At the same time, the higher strings have a familiar scale length for great single-string performance. While getting used to them may seem intimidating, guitarists have found that it's a very natural transition.
Ibanez Array 7 MS humbuckers
A pair of slant-mounted Ibanez Array 7 MS pickups delivers the sonic essence of the RGMS7. Designed for down-tuning, these humbuckers are highly responsive, with a super-tight growl and fat, snarling tone that makes this guitar a natural for progressive metal and aggressive fusion styles.
