Ibanez 2013: The Iceman cometh

How's everyone's Saturday coming along? My Saturday is good (thusfar) with the knowledge that Ibanez still has the Iceman in production this year. It marks the return of its original headstock seen here & block inlays.

It's still offered in 2 finishes; black/ white. However, it now sports the Gibraltar bridge as seen here. Is this in any way inferior to its predecessor sporting a string-through body feature? You'd do well by asking why the typical Les Paul sounds very intriguing & it doesn't sport a string-through body implement. Ditto sustain.

Also new this year, the Iceman in a 7-string incarnation. This is on my want list :-)

Same here! In a lefty finish (I don't think that is even possible).

@Ijau Bro, this year, i'm making a firm move away from the RG. my first ibanez this year won't be an RG. if i have to include one, it'll be very much later. most probably when 2013 is nearly forgotten

@Zach Bro, Ibanez has (surprisingly) included more lefties in their catalog this 2013 :-) some of which are regional exlcusive but we very well know how to get round that, he he...
