The body of the eight-string RG8 is made of meranti. A five-piece maple and walnut neck is glued to a jatoba fingerboard, also known as Brazilian cherry, with twenty-four jumbo frets. Orientation is traditionally facilitated by white position dots. The longer neck gauge is particularly suitable for lower tunings
Two IBZ-8 passive corporate humbuckers with ceramic magnets give this eight-string guitar a deep, clearly articulated tone. Volume potentiometers, tone controls and a three-position pickup switch are used for standard sound adjustments.
Guitars with the Standard designation are the entry-level line of Ibanez guitars. These are affordable instruments that appeal to beginners and experienced players alike with their quality craftsmanship, sound and playability.
