This will in no way encourage needless wankery

Cool idea.

Instruments don't wank, wankers do. This is no different than a 24-fret bass or a 6-string bass.

If a player is tasteless, he doesn't need an extended range to prove it.

Somebody contact Ibanez and tell them that the word is "Dimensions", not "Dimentions".

I lost my third grade spelling bee with that very misspelling.

Ick... that thing looks like you require a ponytail to operate it...

But I do agree it is not the instrument that makes the player a douche...

One person's "wankery" is another person's "I wish I was good enough to be able to do that".

More frets but fewer pickups?!?! This thing stinks of COMPROMISE! This is the antithesis of over-the-top excess. It's the friggin' minivan of the Ibanez RG line.

30 frets and 4 pickups, now that would raise my eyebrows.

Dr. Demento used refer to his minions as "dementians and dementites." Maybe that's what they were thinking.

Looks cool. Not fond of the neck pickup simulator, though... what's the point of having a fake neck pickup if no one can see it? Fake things should be all about looking good!

That Lower horn looks dangerous.

I know I can allways count on Ibanez to fill the void in every metal guitar wanker's GAS list...... Yes, I agree You would probably require a ponytail to operate that guitar to its full potential.

It's no different to most wishbasses, just tuned higher and with frets
