Ibanez S1XXV 25th Anniversary Electric Guitar

Almost every artist follows the same path to mastery: extended periods of concentrated effort spent honing the skillset, often followed by a long period of artistic imitation. This mimicry serves as a foundation on which the artist's contribution of genius to his field of endeavor will be built. So it is with master instrument builders. In the 70s, Ibanez crafted copies with such intensity and diligence that they often surpassed the quality of the originals.

Clearly, Ibanez ranked among the world's best. The big question: could Ibanez deliver their own original contribution to the guitar world?

It didn't happen easily. Or overnight. But in 1987, Ibanez created not one, but two guitars that would join the modern musical instrument pantheon.

Developed first as the Roadstar, the fully "Ibanezed" pedal to-the-metal RG is known throughout the rock and metal world as a full-bore performer. The thin "Wizard" necks are only one of the many innovations that make the RG, the streamlined, no-nonsense all-time favorite of fast players.

If the RG is Ibanez's dragstar, the S series is Ibanez's classic GT racer. A marvel of form and function; it's graceful, sculpted, lightweight mahogany body is stronger and more musically responsive than guitars weighing twice as much.
