Ibanez Announces New 7-String Guitars

July 24, 1999 -- Nashville will again see the unveiling of new Ibanez 7-string guitars. For Korn-style players the basswood, fixed-bridge RG7421, features a drier, edgier tone. It's also the least expensive 7-string Ibanez has ever offered. For the Limp Bizkit kind of player, the mahogany AX7521 is rich in low mids and comes equipped with super high output pickups. "But we haven't gone totally crunch crazy," remarked Bill Reim, Vice President of Marketing at Ibanez. "For the young progressive player, our new S7420 is equipped with low distortion humbuckers and the Lo-TRS7 locking trem. Nor have we forgotten acoustic players: our AJ307CE acoustic has been upgraded with the Fishman Prefix EQ."
