« One of the best 7 strings »

The RG-2027X was a limited production RG 7 string. It's similar to the RG-7620, but this guitar features a mahogany body and a piezo Lo Pro Edge. These two things make this probably one of the more coveted 7 strings on the market with only the RG7CST topping it. The guitar features an HH setup with a 5 way switch, volume knob, tone knob, volume for the piezo and switch to select between the magnetic/piezo options.

UTILIZATION

Ibanez makes some of the best seven string guitars in the world, and this is no exception. The neck on this thing is absolutely glorious, and the weight of the guitar is perfect. If you've never tried a seven string guitar before, I highly recommend testing out an Ibanez as they tend to feel more "natural" than some other guitar manufacturers out there.

SOUNDS

This is one of my favorite sounding RGs ever made. The mahogany body combined with the maple neck and rosewood fretboard gives this thing an absolutely awesome sound. The low mids on this thing really sing, and it has a nice bite to it that basswood doesn't always deliver. The piezo sounds very full sounding, unlike certain other brands out there. The stock pickups are pretty dull, but they're easy to replace.

OVERALL OPINION

If you're in the market for a higher quality RG 7 string, this is one of the models you should be searching for. They can be a bit hard to find, but if you see one, you should really consider grabbing it. Ibanez rarely makes mahogany bodied RG 7 strings, and this is one of the best 7s Ibanez has ever made in the standard production line. About the only thing that exceeds it would be something in the J-Custom line.
