Ibanez RGIXL7-BKF

The Ibanez RGIXL7-BKF is a 7-string electric guitar from the RG series, designed specifically for modern players who require extended range and dependable performance in lower tunings. Its Nitro Wizard-7 XL 3-piece Maple/Bubinga neck and 27-inch scale length provide increased string tension and precise note definition, while the Okoume body and Ebony fretboard contribute to a bright, articulate response. The 24 jumbo frets and slim neck profile make it suitable for fast technical playing and extended-range rhythm work.

The guitar features a pair of DiMarzio Fusion Edge 7 passive ceramic humbuckers, offering a modern, high-output sound with tight low frequencies and clear articulation. A 3-way pickup selector provides neck, both and bridge pickup positions, while the dedicated coil-tap switch adds single-coil-style tonal options. This combination makes the RGIXL7 versatile enough for heavy rhythm sounds, lead tones and cleaner passages.

For stable performance, the RGIXL7 uses a Gibraltar Standard III-7 fixed bridge with 10.8mm string spacing and Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads. The 27-inch scale is particularly useful for down-tuned playing, while luminescent side dots improve fretboard visibility on darker stages. Finished in Black Flat (BKF) with black hardware, the guitar delivers the understated appearance and performance-focused specifications associated with the RG Iron Label range.
