  • i had this guitar, loved it, played the fuck outta it then smashed it at a show. it has amazing action buttttttt imma have to say that cheap "floyd" or in other words the ibanez edge tremolo is terrible. i broke it, completly. dive bombs. if its not a original floyd its trash. the mayple neck is sweet tho. check our a jackson rr24m. thats a treat =]

  • hey, what's te difference between a rg350mdx and a rg350m

  • @tallicaboy100 DX just stands for delux. but in reality, theres nothing delux about it. just the inlays

  • i have a 370dx its badass but i would relly like to have that maple fretboard

  • DUDE ITS GREEN!

  • @lambofgodrules1000 I like my RG350MDX, but really it's just a matter of preference. The maple fretboard makes the sound bite a bit more and rosewood is a little warmer, that's all :)

  • I just returned one of these to Guitar Center. Poorly made. Better off spending a little more.

  • floyd rose bridge??

  • I got this guitar and dumbass me couldnt figure out how to set it up properly so now the strings are like weird and dont sound right

  • The tremolo Edge III has a bad reputation, but who cares. I think I'm getting this guitar soon. I'm tired of looking and looking for the perfect guitar (for my low budget)

  • @soullessSiIence then stop looking and buy it!!! haha just make sure to throw in some dimarzios. and if this makes you feel a little more comfortable, the edge III can be pretty good if you set it EXACTLY right. intonation and all. but remember, its not a floyd rose so it doesnt get set parallel to the body. theres a harder way to tell the exact angle needed but the easiest is to make the part that has "ibanez" written on it parallel to the body.

  • Well hello Scott Ian, nice playing!, and is this guitar super freakin awesome? tell me scott!!

  • @SkyDelta52 Yeah it's pretty damn cool :) I like it almost as much as my Dean black gold V with EMG's :)

  • @kamikaze1213

    dude... all the 350's got EMG xD daayuum!

  • Can you do super squeals? Flagpoles? that's why I'd get it.

  • @PSNgregiskool its called a harmonic

  • Sounds great! I'm gonna get the 350M :D

  • does it get out of tune if you use the whammy bar a lot??

  • @produccionesmiranejo In my experience no, I have whammied the hell out it without much trouble at all :)

  • @produccionesmiranejo

    If you don't lock the tuners then yes, it will. Otherwise, no, it won't at all.

  • @FarazR2

    is it hard to tune???

  • @produccionesmiranejo

    Nah. Same as basically any other floating trem bridge. If you're THAT worried about tuning stability, you should get a fixed bridge, or get some locking tuners on top of the little locking nut that comes with this one. One thing I do, is tune both e strings, then the a, then the b, then g, then the d string.

  • @FarazR2

    cuz i heard that these kind of guitars are hard to tune, cuz the have the trem. im not actually sure XD i'm new to these guitars (RG's)

    and since i need to be changing the tuning of my guitar i wanted to know if it was hard to tune

  • @produccionesmiranejo

    You're gonna have a hard time if you're tuning and detuning between songs and such, but if you detune, then you can set it up pretty easily for that tuning. It's a pain, I admit. You'd probably be happier with a normal bridge, or a nonfloating trem. You won't be able to pull up on the bridge though. that's the only drawback of not having a floating.

  • @FarazR2

    no i need to cange tunig like evry day, cuz i play at church and i play metal

    and you know how metal tunings are, and at church i use a standard tuning

    so i dont need change tuning between songs but i need to change it several times during the week

  • @produccionesmiranejo

    check... it is floyd rose tremollo with string locks... tho it is in the "cheap class", it can take alot of "wham" without getting out of tune. i use it all the time. you will love it for its prize. use it alot and you will have to tune once in a week ;) (which obvioustly isnt much)

  • some1 help me please!!i dont know what 2 get this or the rg350m bk

  • Hi, I have this exact guitar. I have never owned a guitar before and was wondering if you could make a video on how to tune it. My d string is way off. I'm aware it requires unscrewing things. I am in dire need of a video on how to do it. If you made one showing how to tune this exact guitar I would be very VERY thankful. Thanks so much.

  • @RedAroundTheEdges I don't see a problem with that, I have some new strings on order, case + 2 of 11-48 Ernie balls, Once they get here I will show the process I use to down-tune the guitar the proper way insuring proper tension.

  • @RedAroundTheEdges It isnt hard to tune a guitar, some people can tune a guitar by ear and some can't. Personally I can't so I have a tuner. Theres lots of different types. You can probably pick a decent one for £15. Your strings in standard tuning should go E-A-D-G-B-E (from the lowest note to the highest) if they're not in that order when you tune them they're they're out of tune. So you turn the pegs at the top until you hit the right note. I can now do it in about 20 seconds.

  • i was thinking of getting one but i wasn't sure if it could take 11-56 gauge strings what do you think?

  • @DYOLFMOT Of course it can. Especially if tuning down to a lower tuning.

  • @kamikaze1213 thnx keep on shredding

  • wow! nice skills

  • @jjangupta Thanks so much for the kind words, greatly appreciated :)

  • I got the RG 350M-BK!

    I'm gonna replace thos INF for a DiMarzzio Evolution! And this mapple fretboard?!? Ibanez should make more of those!

    One thing that it should have is a Zero-Point system on the floyd rose...

    But its a really great guitar!

  • @RockstarFilipe thats exactly what i did with my ibanez rg370dxl i got rid of the inf's and put Evo's in it, and it sounds unreal! \m/

  • nice guitar.. whats the fretboard like? I've only played maple fretboard on a Fender.

  • @scotty688 It's nice, it really screams. Different in tonality than rosewood or ebony, not quite as warm as those woods, I like it for that reason :)

  • great but, why do you replace the pickups?

  • @kremaster666

    Ibanez infinity pickups suck. I replaced my 350mdx's pickups with a dimarzio x2n, and dimarzio liquifire, while keeping the middle as a gain reducer.

  • hey the locking tuner on mine had its tuner stripped what should i do

  • nice skills and nice beard...

  • damn is it just me or do those frets look huge

  • yeah, and damn they weigh a tonn!

    still awesome though

  • and the pinky

  • I'd give up my pencils if I could play like that! That's beautiful!!

  • nice shredding man...what pickups r u gonna get to replace the infs??

  • so the only difference between the 350dx and 350mdx the color?

  • @hadin101 No, the 350mdx has a maple fretboard :)

  • basically but the 350dx doesnt have a maple fingerboard

  • dude you got some stuff on your chin...

  • You should see it now, it's about three times that length :)

  • you are good but you dont have armoni

  • SHRED THAT MOTHER MAN!!!!!!!

    Peace, ace77man

  • I've had mine three months now and I still feel so satisfied whenever I play it, or look at it for that matter. Now I need to get my hands on one of those prestige models...

  • is it any good

  • right on bro

  • what does it sound like through heavy distortion?

  • Nice vid man.

    I have a Korean RG 270, the RG 350 MDX is japanese right ?

  • is it discontinued???

  • is this guitar good? i can't decide on RG350DX RG350EX or RG350MDX

  • RG350MDX is the best.

  • do you really think it is good because im thinking of buying 1 and i need at least 1 good opinion =P

  • Yes it is that good, if you can put up with re-stringing the edge 3 then its an amazing guitar. If you are planning on getting it, hurry up they are discontinuing this maple model.

  • k thanks i hope to get one by june 15th-20th think i can get one at that time?

  • Yeah you should be able to (depending on where you buy it of course)

  • i ordered one today =) itll be in in about 2 weeks

  • plays like a dream looks great sounds like nothing youve ever heard

  • i just got mine yesterday and i love it but there is one bad thing, when im not playing it it is staticy and i dont know how to fix that

  • get either a noise supressor pedal, or get a high quality input cable like a monster cable or i think the other one is called live wire cable, im sure that will help with your feedback problem.

  • cool, thanks. I think its the cable I'm using its this crappy $5 cable i think i need a better one and the one i have now is old and not very well taken care of lol

  • Yeah a better cable will help a lot, also if you put a little bit of tin foil on the inside of the door that goes to your wires and everything will help insulate (so to speak lol) AND things around you CAN effect your amp a little. For some reason my amp gets real staticy when my TV is on *shrugs shoulders*

  • try some monster cables. i got mine about two years ago and they are the best cables i have ever had

  • every guitar has this.

  • It's your amp.

  • What are you playing at the start? i must know!

  • It's all original playing based around a phrygian mode for this.

  • Ahh kk.

    Your guitar is sick, im getting it at the end of the year for 750 :P

  • 750??? where are you buying it at? dude, you can get this guitar for alot cheaper than that... like 450..

  • I'm Australian, so right now, at the moment that is the price for this guitar at Allans Music, good to hear you got the guitar for that cheap.

  • i haven't bought it myself, but I've seen it around..

    and oh, i wasn't aware of that. :P

  • hey im australian too, how much does ibanez rg 350 dx cost?

  • 400 at GC

  • GC meaning?, im at Melbourne, VIC

  • guitar center

  • im getting it for 400 on music123,guitarcenter,musician­sfriend, or sam ash

  • lol got mine $200 CAN used here in canada.

  • i have this one, i luv it !

  • I love it, I adore it, I want it :P:p

  • nice playing dude :D... but man can i ask if changing pickups would work?... cause i've had a few people tell me that because of the maple neck changing pickups would be very bad :(

  • Thanks much for kind words! Not not at all, changing the pickups, depending on the pickups are going to give you more expressive tone. The maple fretboard is just a little brighter overall than rosewood. It's not hard to get the sound you want from this guitar :)

  • i'm getting dimarzio evo or deactivator if i don't get an EMG active in the bridge... i like the neck pickup's clean and lead tone though so i'm most likely not gonna change that :)

  • im getting that guitar today

  • How do you like the edge III bridge?

    How is the tuning stability?

  • i have the mdx and i'll tell you that it's pretty great in terms of tuning stability but there's one little thing that may bother you... you have to pull up the whammy after bends/dives because the bridge would dive flat a quarter tone... and you can't play stuff that would have one string bended and a second string not bended at the same time :(.. the not bended string would dive flat and the other would bend sharp which sounds very disgusting :(

  • yeah on my xiphos i have edge 3 and i love it except when palm muting lol cuz i always accidentally push the bridge down

  • get an 81 and 85, standard...thats what i put in mine and its the fuckin shit

  • Can you pull the trem up? Or does it go only one way/Down?

  • the whammy bar goes both ways, u get really wicked sounds to it

  • the trem bar is called a "floyd rose"... all floyds go up and down, the fixed tremolos only are with paul reed smith models, strat models (original and copy/knock-off) some Ibanez models and others. the floyd is actually more common than the fixed though

  • nice playing.

    i was going to get this guitr for my brithday, but im still lookin at some others

  • does your goaty give yopu magical guitar playing powers because u seriously rock nice guitar

  • Thanks so much for the kind words!! Goatee is a lot longer now lol

  • (That means he got better) =D

  • Cool playing man.I just got the 350mdx and I'm loving it.Sweet guitar.Fast maple neck just rocks Dude.I'm growing the goatie too.

  • Awesome, glad to hear you got it!! Thanks much for the kind words and hope you get that goatee growin ;)

  • Im gettin this axe soon. If your just beginning i suggest you start off with an Ibanez GAX70. they shred the shit hard. perfect for any nooby or pro. trust me guys its a great guitar. nice vid homie =)

  • Dude you're fucking bee's knees. how long have you been into the guitar thing?

    you have induced in me an unstoppable lecherous desire to learn Guitar! do you recommend this one for a complete noob??

  • i own an rg350dx and i defffinately recomend it skip the baby faze of cheap hundred dollar guitars and skip to guitar in the 500 dollar range especially ibanez youd be suprised at how huge pof a differnce there really is mine was only 450 i think it was and is like 5x better than my squire which was about 200 so you do the math lol

  • Ibanez to the veins,dude,I'm a raving hardcore metalhead, so as I read, Ibanez is the right pick. I'm not sure I would leap directly to 500$ range but definitely its gonna be Ibanez.

    one more thing, do you think learning electric guitar ,all by yourself ,starting off the pre-baby level is a doable thing??

  • deffinately its how i learned, honestly you just gotta really want it and get addicted basically youll suck at first but built with basic chords like i first learned g maj c maj and d maj (google helps) just learn how to switch up chords faster get a decent understanding of what your strings are like eadgbe learn tab and get decent i started to take lessons after i had been playing for a year and a half its really only worth it if youre learning theory everything else you teach yourself

  • dude, you simply fucking zapped up my spirit! got more fucking anticipating to get a guitar and shred this world to pieces. Thank you, Spirit Zapper!

  • haha good luck with it man

    and no problem

  • Rock On!! hope I'm getting one tomorow

  • ahh i got this for chrissy it is sooo goood :)

  • sick as dude

  • wicked ax brotha! \m/

  • how do you get that fast at scales? god damn

  • would you recomend this ive been looking at it

  • Absolutely, it's a great guitar!

  • nice sound,what amp do you use?

  • I just got an ibanez RG350 the white one=]

    and it... is...awesome =DD

  • Awesome!! Great to hear and I hope your just loving the hell out that guitar :) Get some videos up for us!

  • i couldnt seee with your hand but is that double humbuckers?

  • Two humbuckers ans a single coil in the middle :)

  • Yeah the place I was talking about thats a little bit farther is Guitar Center and thats also where im planing to get it.

  • Man, I want that guitar so bad, the place closest to my house wants $450.00 for it but another place a little bit farther wants $400.00 for it.

  • how good is the whammy for this guitar?

  • About as good as any other really, I mean for the price range anyway :)

  • The bridge is an edge 3 floating tremolo. its good for the first 6 months, then it goes to shit. its best to get a guitar with an edge pro bridge on it, or buy this guitar and replace the bridge, thats what i did.

  • actually it might just be dulling of the knife edge which caused the problems you have experienced with the edge III. It is a common problem on the new Ibanez trems including the Edge Pro. some even have quite dull knife edge from the factory, so if you did not check the edge out, you should have. Just some penny-saving advice, for others who might think of replacing the E-III after reading your post. The Edge III is a proper trem, though inferior in features to the Edge Pro

  • everyone ive talked to has replaced their rg bridges with edge pros. They all said the same thing, edge iii ware out when you use it too much. and you cant replace the knife edges after they dull out. you have to replace the bridge or put some wood blocks on both sides of it to make it a fixed bridge.

  • Hi ! I'm sorry to bother you, but I'd like to buy an Ibanez guitar and the RG series look/sound real cool... What should I do about the Tremolo ? I'm on a budget, mind you: I can only spend up to 500 Euros. What should I do ? Oh, just one thing: I'd like a read good temolo and two octaves by string. Thanks for your patience ;)

  • well, that can go one way. The neck is a 2 octave wizard 2 neck (24 frets). And they way you want your bridge is based solely on how you adjust it. I wouldn't recommend an edge 3, you should go for a ZR

  • why are you changing the pickups are they bad???

  • No they aren't bad at all, It's just that other pickups out there can get a better tonality then stock pickups, Like the Dimarzio/Seymour duncans etc... Just adding an extra punch and get every tonal nuance avaiable from the guitar :)

  • well i havnt been playing for too long and i wanna play metal and hard rock etc. so will this be a good guitar for me? if not any reccomendations?

  • This would be an awesome guitar for you! Head down to your local Ibanez dealer and try it out :)

  • how you did this fast picking? is there any tutorial can you give me tips?

  • It's just alternate picking, I started by alternating my picking through major scales both down and up, it will definitely build good dexterity and faster picking!

  • have you ever problem like mine: every 2 days g string breaks in the same place (0,5cm from the bridge). it hapens last 6 or 7 days(i have this guitar for 9 weeks). never have problem like that (with my rg 2570 never as well). is it something with the bridge or is it a coincidence? help. peace.

  • How many ppl did you ask this lol?? seems lik a prob wit ur floyd

  • from greece!!!!!!!!!!nice ibanez style

  • i just got one myself...New at playing not to sure where to start off :)

  • .. omg ... wow ... i love it dude ... :D

  • Have the same guitar only I shoved active dave mustaine duncans in it and gave it an esp floyd rose :) and yeah..its bad ass now!

  • how much is that guitar??

  • Currently 399.99 through American musical supply :)

  • I'm gonna get one and replace the pickups with EMGs

  • don't do that I had a friend that replaced the pickups on a similar guitar with EMG's and it didn't turn out very well and he sold them in about 2 weeks, he then tried dimarzio and it worked out better but different people, different opinions you know how it is

  • yeah, i'm just gonna end up building my own guitar.

    it comes out less expensive than that guitar, if i buy one, i'd have to mess up a bunch of stuff before i get it the way i want it to be.

  • I personally have a very shitty guitar so I guess I'll never have to upgrade thank god for this blessing :) also it wouldn't be much of miss if I smash it in the ground

  • I want to get that Ibanez so bad!

  • i love this giutar ive got one and they rock!!!

  • question i want this guitar i caus ei don't want to put my jem through the abuse of tuning to dropped c. does it have coil tap? either way i still think i will buy it. i like how it looks remindes me of the rg 770's with the matching body color inlays.

  • Fuck ebay I have bought things on ebay before and they came out bad.I found a used 550 I'm just gonna buy that.

  • I had a rg350...then I've sold it when i tried ou a cort x11....it was much cheaper than the rg....with emg pickups too...

  • I'm planing on buying this guitar used for $300,taking out all the electronics ,neck ,bridge and pick guard painting it red,and replacing the Edge 3 with original edge.I basically want it to look like an RG550 red,but is there any way to remove the inlays?Would I have to get new frets some how or a whole new neck?
