Everything a Top-tier Player Looks For
Like all the guitars in Ibanez’s high-end J Custom line, the RG8527 has everything a top-tier player looks for. Experience unbelievable resonance and sustain, by way of an eye-popping AAA flamed-maple-topped African mahogany body. Enjoy the just-right feel of this 7-string guitar’s 5-piece neck, while a Prestige fret edge treatment infuses its bound Macassar ebony fingerboard with the ultimate in lightning-fast playability. A set of DiMarzio PAF 7 humbuckers is primed to drive your amp into gorgeous crunch and saturation. Beyond that, an Edge-Zero tremolo allows you to bend, twist, and dive-bomb with no intonation anxiety. The RG8527 features an attractive tree of life fingerboard inlay and cosmo black hardware.
Incredibly fast J Custom Wizard-7 neck
Ibanez Wizard necks are thin and built for speed, and they enable effortless playability and comfort. The RG8527 takes that design to the next level with its 5-piece maple/wenge J Custom Wizard-7 neck. The just-right feel provided by this neck encourages lightning-fast runs, arpeggios, and hammer-ons. Capping the neck is a 24-fret Macassar ebony fingerboard, loaded with jumbo frets that are perfect for big note bends. Beyond that, the RG8527’s frets have been given Ibanez’s J Custom edge treatment, delivering the ultimate in smooth playability.
DiMarzio PAF 7 humbucking pickups
If you’re familiar with vintage-voiced, PAF-style pickups, then you know that they can cover an amazing tonal range within a single song. The DiMarzio PAF 7 humbucking pickups in the RG8527 give you the dynamic range you need to go from shimmering cleans to raging leads with exceptional depth and clarity. Set your amp to its sweet spot, turn the volume and tone knobs while switching the different pickup positions, and you’ll discover a whole world of tone to explore.
Palm muting never felt so good
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. Guitar players all agree the Ibanez Edge-Zero bridge 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. And locking studs give you additional tuning stability.
