Ibanez built the RG652AHMNGB as part of the RG Prestige Series, positioning it at the upper tier of the RG line where tighter tolerances and premium materials distinguished it from the standard production models. The Prestige designation indicated domestic Japanese manufacture under Ibanez's more stringent quality controls, though the source material does not state a country of manufacture explicitly.
The guitar was built around an Ash body paired with a five-piece Maple/Walnut Super Wizard HP neck — a thin, fast profile designed for low-resistance playing across the 25.5-inch scale length. The bound Birdseye Maple fretboard carries black dot inlays and Jumbo frets, with a 430mm radius that keeps the board relatively flat for lead work. Nut width measures 43mm, widening to 58mm at the 24th fret, with neck thickness running 17mm at the first fret and 19mm at the twelfth. The Edge tremolo bridge — a double-locking unit with 10.8mm string spacing — handles pitch shifting duties, and all hardware is finished in Cosmo black. Electronics consist of a DiMarzio Air Norton humbucker at the neck and a DiMarzio The Tone Zone humbucker at the bridge, both passive Alnico designs. The guitar left the factory strung with a .009–.042 set in standard E tuning.
Owners requiring parts — Edge tremolo components, Birdseye Maple nut stock, or DiMarzio pickup replacements — should verify dimensions against the specs above before sourcing. A qualified guitar technician can confirm compatibility and handle setup work on the floating tremolo system.
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
