Ibanez RG1527-RB (7-string)

[Airborne]

O.k. I don’t necessarily need a new guitar now but our local shop offered me a brand new Ibanez RG1527 for 770 EUR.
It would be nice to have a “cheap” but good guitar for practicing, travelling, gigging etc. and I am thinking about buying this one.

What do you guys think about this fiddle for 770 EUR?

No idea if that's a good price, but I have one in that exact same color with Dimarzio Blaze pickups and it's a fucking amazing guitar. The playability and fit and finish easily holds up to guitars that cost nearly twice as much.

you call that cheap?

fuckin' a, man...

that guitar slays bro all you need to do is put new pickups in it and it is an amazing guitar for everything. it is my main recording guitar

Fuck, an hour ago I went to the music store.
They sold this fucking guitar yesterday!
Damn.

Buy one used from the US. It will probably end up cheaper for you anyways... also look at the RG7620, which is the previous version of the RG1527... Some people actually like it better...

You can get a new one from Playback Guitar at 799€

I ordered one from Playback 2 years ago. I think its nice guitar for the price.

so ~800 euro and still needs pickup replacement? Doesn't sound like a good deal to me

if he can find a 7620 used it comes with blaze 2 pickups and is the same quality guitar.

I have one that I'm selling from the USA.
