Ibanez RG7421PB Review

Great for the price.

I have three 7 strings and this one is a go to for low tunings. It's perfectly fine for a first 7 string and will do you justice. I did mod mine a bit. I swapped the pickups for the Seymour Duncan alpha/omega set and wow...it Really turned this thing into a beast of a guitar. I also had it plekd and set up with 11's. Might throw locking tuners in it this year. This thing is a beast.… read more The feel is great and out of all 10 of my guitars, everyone who sees them always says this is their favorite. It's Really eye catching

Great guitar

I got this guitar wanting to get back into playing after a multi year hiatus and I couldn't have picked a better one. It looks awesome and feels better. I can actually play this better than my main guitar which is an old epi LP custom from the late 90s and that alone has made me feel like actually playing again. First Ibanez and the wizard neck is so good that I'm now looking for… read more a higher end 6 string to replace my main guitar. Only downside really is the pickups aren't anything that will blow you away but that's to be expected at this price range.

Excellent first 7 string

I've been playing a 6 string iron label for the past few years and finally decided to try out a 7 string since most of the bands I listen to use them. For the price I am extremely impressed. The quality was excellent, the pick ups are slightly muddy but can't complain for the price tag. The PB top is great quality and the neck is fast. If you're looking for a 7 string ... I'd highly… read more recommend.

Amazing Sound and Feel

Got this for Christmas; plays great, fretwork is great, smooth as butter and sounds amazing with that signature Ibanez growl. Everything you could ask for at a modest price. If you're thinking about testing out a 7 string, you will not be disappointed. This is my first 7 and it felt very welcoming to play and get used to. Thanks Sweetwater team!

This guitar is beautiful!

This is my first 7 string, so I don't have another 7 string to compare it to. Sweetwater did a great job with the set up. The intonation was perfect and the action was low. The neck is smooth and fast. I really love the recessed neck joint. Also love the cut-aways on the body, they make this guitar really comfortable to hold and play. As for the pickups, I'm not an expert, but… read more they sound good to me. If you really don't like them, you could always swap 'em out and still be saving money over a higher-end guitar. The 5 position switch gives you the 3 standard options (neck, bridge+neck, and bridge), but also 2 extra modes (neck+bridge split [inner] and neck parallel). If you look this guitar up on the Ibanez website you can see all the details about it. My only complaint is that the volume knob on mine is a bit tough to turn. It's such a minor issue (for me anyway) and it may just be mine. Also, if anyone out there is wondering, it fits great into a String Swing CC01.
