Ibanez: Iron Label

This is definitely new by Ibanez this 2013 but it's nothing refreshing- EMG pickups (RGT6- discontinued) & kill switches (RGR08LTD- discontinued) have been done before. If you caught the NAMM bits, the manufacturer said the Iron Label models were conceived with only one thing in mind- metal. The instruments in this range are also fitted with essential features- everything you need & nothing you don't. But is a kill switch something dire for metal? Do you have any use for one or would you feel more objective with a tone control on board? Guitars available in black only- any other colour & it's not metal... Fortunately, the S-series version has passive pickups in there.
