Description

The Ibanez RG8EX-BKF 8- String Electric Guitar in Black Flat takes one of the most iconic guitar shapes and styles and turns it into a high-performance shred machine. Designed for speed, strength, and reliability, the RG8EX features a Wizard II Maple neck, jumbo frets, a Meranti body for balanced tonal resonance, and a pair of Quantum humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions. The RG is precise, articulate, and in every way a performance-built workhorse.

Wizard II 5-Piece Neck

Durable, reliable, and comfortable, the neck on this electric guitar contributes to the rigidity and sustain in feel and tone to give you a performance-focused playing experience. Complimented by the satin polyurethane finish, you can easily navigate the neck to play for hours on end. The Wizard neck shape provides a flat, thin profile that pins you even close to the fretboard, perfect for sweep picking or shredding, designed for the high-performance player.

Jumbo Frets

The Jumbo frets provide a wide and tall feel for expressive bending and articulate, effortless, playing. Polished to perfection, the jumbo stainless steel frets give you a clean, crystal-clear tone to ensure that every note and chord expresses a dynamic and fluent response.

IBX-8 Pickups

Loaded with two IBX-8 humbucker pickups, the RG8EX produces a crisp, articulate low-end, whilst being able to handle extreme high gain without losing tonal resonance for fantastic clarity. The bridge humbucker gives you a ferocious growl, perfect for hard rock riffs, with the neck humbucker providing a creamier growl.

Key Features

F108 Bridge – Providing enriched sustain, the F106 fixed bridge can be easily and independently adjusted for intonation maintaining a hassle-free playing experience.
IBZ-8 Pickups – Designed for extended-range guitars that deliver tight low-end handling and intense high-gain without losing tonal clarity.
Meranti Body – Helping to boost the mid-range of the RG is the Meranti body, providing a sweet scoop of tonal resonance.

Stuff About Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Stuff About Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.
