    24 frets, 2 humbucker Ibanez, floyd, volume and tone. Just what I asked a scratch! and especially 7-string, hello potential.

    UTILIZATION

    Good Access in treble.
    The weight is correct and the balance is good.
    Good sound of the game without looking for the right balance of knob.

    SOUNDS

    Perfect for playing mtal, especially Korn etc ...
    Only small BMOL, micro serious not sound terrible in its bright, saturated as it is ok.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play it for two years and I do not intend to change it, it suits me. If I had to change something that can be micro serious.
    This is a great skyscraper try! You will not come back on then 6 strings!

    Despite this Access in acute is very easy, a good guitar for all shredeurs herb prfrant the 7-string. Channel trs fast and enjoyable to touch and sight.
    RG typically forms with sharp horns trs, body not too grazing.
    A wide strap is prfrable because bte PSE infrieure weight but still that of a Les Paul (Word connaiseur).
    Acute and mdium but serious enough prcis all of the same rough enough unless you have a strong rope to pull a standard tuning. Personally I am in Mount 11-54 over a 58 Si and the sound is clean trs.

    SOUNDS

    Personally I play a lot of Korn and trs well be my requirements despite the lack of micro DiMarzio. It should play well for trs all types of music.
    I play it for 1 year 1 / 2 of a BER Mtal religious Line 6 amp Roland Cube 15, I find it shuffled its great thanks, it should have done my style music. I test on a triple rectified Mesa / Boogie and I can tell you that the sound is just incredible.
    I RULES leaving my pedals Mdiums 12 and I put the bass and treble bottom.
    Submitted punch and treble is also, I find no other rglage that I like as much. Cot's clear, put the slecteur in the middle you get a sound close to the non-saturated guitar in "Master of Puppetz" by Metallica.
    I do dtest no sound on this guitar, even if I am not a fan of frenzied solos, I think it is pretty good in this area.
    Rectification on 13/12/2006: APRS weeks of intensive work to raise my level solo, I find the treble too loud and quite ugly, I think after a change of micro (Seymour Duncan TB6 7-string 7-string + SH6) all fall into place.

    OVERALL OPINION

    As I said dja I use it for 1 1 / 2 years and I love it.
    The particular feature I like most is to have the look in parallle with sound.
    What I like least is the painting which, although pretty trs in black finish paillets'caille immediately and trs is fragile. The slightest touch causes a hole in painting. It unfortunately does not sell more black since 2005.
    I regret that there is the head of the WRITING "Prestige" and not "V" significant brand.
    Before buying it I tried a Peavey TR7, a Conklin 7-string and a Squier. They are a great level infrieure this Ibanez.
    The report qualitprix is ​​acceptable, I just wish that for 700 is not put the "V" on the head and a painting worthy of the name itself.
    APRS all this time I think in this price range, I n'achterait any other guitar. For the most demanding, I advise chang micro EMGs for type o DiMarzios Tone Zone or Evolution.

    Fits well for the trs mtal, versatile and relatively comfortable on other styles, the clean sounds are crystal clear and also prcis.

    Mesa boogie triple plays and pod.

    Since I bought a Vigier Excalibur, the sound is twice as good but the price is three times the lev. The more it is a good instrument for its price.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it since 2004, I like his overall balance, flexibility and quality-General for the instrument. In recent months she serves as backup if ptag guitar string.

    What I like least is the lack of sustain li largely floyd rose and locking the strings at the top of sleeve. Also the lack of rumble in the mediums that is typical of Ibanez and makes the game a little smoother (no need to attack the strings) to less drafts of strings far too important to play fluid (like pulling 68 If in the grave).

    I had one before 1077XL, less flexible but better for downtune, not the same type of instrument.

    Excellent quality price, in this range ibanez plutt is unbeatable on the seven strings of quality not too expensive. There are plenty of good opportunities as the seven strings are a bit out of fashion.

    Looking back I do it again this choice Whereas for much better off guitar maker you have to buy a music man or pettrucci Vigier Excalibur and the price then Exceeds 3000

    For someone who has the resources you need to type directly in this high-end 'industry' as if it really even better than the Ibanez 1527.

    We get the sound you desire a relatively easy provided you have an amp that makes sense also

    SOUNDS

    I play all styles so I find it very versatile
    I play with a marshall 100dfx and the sound is very well structured it does when you start a pure distortion of the sound is very well defined one can have crystal clear sound and a fat knob in a movement that is very pleasant. In addition to the posibilit split the pickups were even more Large selection of his

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have been using 2semaines bought new in Paris, I tried other models of 7-string before taking it because it's the only one who is looked upon as high-end possess a floyd. The report qualitprix is ​​extra, I do it again this choice in a heartbeat
    So if you hesitate with other instruments I highly recommend it

    Ibanez RG1527Published on 06/22/11 at 23:44
    Ibanez has pretty much always been the leader in the seven string world. My first seven string experience was a bit woeful, but given how much I like Ibanez, I decided to give it another go. This guitar is pretty much the same as the later model 7620s with the major difference being the 5 piece neck on the 1527 and Edge Pro vs Lo Pro. The body is still a basswood body, and the fretboard is still a rosewood fretboard. Just like the 7620, the 1527 comes in an HH configuration.

    Ibanez has pretty much always been the leader in the seven string world. My first seven string experience was a bit woeful, but given how much I like Ibanez, I decided to give it another go.

The body is still a basswood body, and the fretboard is still a rosewood fretboard. Just like the 7620, the 1527 comes in an HH configuration.

    UTILIZATION

    One of the best things about Ibanez is the ability to get super low action and easy access to the higher frets. The all access neck joint and cut out lower horn make it feel almost as if there's no neck joint at all. Everything on my guitar was put together nice, but the electronics were the weak point. The stock pickups are pretty bland, and the stock switch is somewhat low quality. The pots aren't terrible, but there are better ones out there.

    SOUNDS

    Given how bland the stock pickups sound, I immediately replaced them with an Air Norton 7 and Evo 7. The guitar really came alive then. The Evo 7 keeps everything nice and tight, and the Air Norton 7 gives a wonderful lead tone. I replaced the standard 5 way switch with a 3 way that has the inner coils split to give me that John Petrucci style setup. LIke most of my guitars, I disconnected the tone knob as I rarely use them. If you dislike basswood guitars, you'll probably dislike this. It has that typical basswood midrange going on, and some people hate that. I think basswood sounds awesome for lead tones as everything seems to stay smooth and fairly linear.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Those looking for a seven string should just skip on the budget trash and seriously check out the Ibanez guitars. The thinner neck makes it easier to get used to the low B, and the MIJ Prestige factory's fretwork usually cranks out consistently good quality fretwork. I have no problems getting ~1/32'' @ the 12th fret.
