Ibanez SML721-RGC Multi-Scale, Rose Gold Chameleon Overview
The Ibanez SML721-RGC is a high-performance S-type electric guitar that delivers slick playability and seriously versatile tonal options via the Q58 humbuckers and dyna-MIX 10 switching system.
The cutting edge of Ibanez design, the S series continues to be a marvel of form and function. Its signature body shape - sculpted, lightweight, and mahogany - is stronger and more musically responsive than guitars weighing twice as much. The S series is still a rock ‘n’ roll version of a quick, graceful, and potentially lethal weapon.
Axe Design Lab
Ibanez has been creating innovations which do not only fit the unique demands of players from that period but also eventually turn into industrial standards, such as 7-string, 8-string and Multi-scale guitars. All these started from our attitude to be “Innovative, Cutting-Edge and Pioneer”. Axe Design Lab is the series that fully represents this attitude.
Wizard 5pc Maple/Walnut neck
Ibanez’s thin, flat and fast Wizard neck is strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability for demanding players.
Rosewood fretboard
Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid-range.
Jumbo Jescar EVOgold™ frets
Jescar EVOgold™ frets are known for their bright tone, gorgeous appearance, and excellent features such as long-lasting durability and smooth note bending.
Nyatoh body
Nyatoh used as the body wood provides a rich mid-low end.
Q58 H-H pickups
Q58 pickups are designed specifically for use in headless guitars. They provide a clearly defined sound, facilitating excellent tonal balance through all frequencies. The lows are powerful without being muddy, and the highs are bright and clear, but never harsh. As a result, every single note within the chord structure is well-defined, and clearly audible. These pickups, with their tonal balance, and extremely low noise performance, work extremely well with both digital and analogue effects.
Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads
The Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.
Mono-rail bridge
Designed for both stability and sustain, the innovative Ibanez Mono-Rail bridge minimizes cross-talk between strings
dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter Switch
The dyna-MIX 10 offers ten sound variations and can easily switch from humbucker and single coil modes with the mini switch. The power Tap mode provides a realistic single coil sound despite its two-humbucker pickup layout.
Luminescent side dots
The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.
