Description
The Ibanez RGD61 is built as the ultimate machine for modern metal. Designed specifically for the demands of down-tuning, it delivers the rich, heavy tones that low tunings demand while retaining speed, precision, and playability. With its extended 26.5” scale neck, you get tighter string tension, improved intonation, and a crushing tone that’s ideal for aggressive riffing and powerful lead work.
