- Yo!! What's up, dudes?!?! A few people asked for a dedicated video for the Ibanez RG760, so here it is. I'm running through Peavey Revalver 4 for the amp sim. The bridge pickup is a vintage "MJ" Full Shred from Seymour Duncan, wound by Maricella Juarez. Check it out!

Every now and then, I come across this dude’s vids on the tube. Easily the most entertaining guitar reviewer on UA-cam. As a bonus, the sound quality doesn’t suck.
dang dude your tone is always off the charts
Robert Baker Hey, are you getting comment notices? I haven't got an email re: comments in over a week. I get one if someone responds to a comment, but never if it's just a comment. Weird.
same here ive got nothing youtueb and google+ are seperating i belive and i think thats whats ,essing everythign up
Robert Baker Ahh, that makes sense. Hopefully I'll figure out the fix once they get them separated. When I try to go my settings, I'm automatically taken to Google+. I thought I screwed it up, somehow, and could not figure out how to fix it.
PixxyLixxx over a month ago they anounced they where seperating google+ from yourtube so now you dont have to have a google+ account to have a yourtube channel. It's freaking messing up notifications for sure im getting them 1/2 the time in the indicator .. sometimes i have to go into the creator studio to get them/see them
thoughts on the full shred? looking to buy one so i' d like to know what i' m dealing with... thanks!
Came for the pick-ups, stayed for the stories 🙌🏼
Love your content Steve ! I like to hear all your stories and love hearing your jamming, watching from the UK !
These are the best videos...just a man with a guitar and great stories!
Loved the video ! Can't wait to see the new ones coming!!
Sick tone Steve, great as usual.. love your stories and the awesome jams/reviews... peace
Love your longer videos. Excellent playing as always. Rock on dude :)
Dude I love your channel, I can watch you for hours! I've subbed.
Keep up these awesome videos
Howard.
Steve, please keep this format when you do your videos. It's really what gives this channel it's real charm!
Man, I remember living in Indy at the time and there were two big shops at the time I went to. One had the killer Charvels in the windows and I was just dying to get one. ThI they gave me a catalog that thought was a Charvel catalog, but could have been a Jackson and it had Steve Vai, and all the good players at the time.
Then I went to another store and they had just got in the new Ibanez guitars and I remember at the time not liking the looks of them. The same store had loads of Kramers and I lusted over those, especially the one's with the flip flop paint jobs and American versions (ESP Built) with neck thru bodies and Duncans. I'm 54 and can remember those days with great joy!

Great Effort Steve!! Cheers for the new vid & info about the guitar each one has a cool back story and your techniques for getting the best price are gold! :) .......\m/........
Just found your page and I love it. Just got back into playing guitar after a 20 year layoff. Thanks for your info!
I like the longer blah blah blah videos too.
What's up dude!!! Yeah I like the long videos with the in depth stories, that's why I subscribed to you. So keep on rockin dude and story telling!!!!
Bro I love you and your attitude man, keep on rocking bro!
Vicious tone! Always!
I also enjoy the more casual, conversational videos. You are a natural orator, and present a good balance betwixt playing and story telling.
Video duration is always a hot topic, personally I like your shorter videos sub 15mins, the longer ones take me a few views to get through unless I'm in my garage and your like having the radio on. As for me making longer videos I prefer that, I find it easiest to make 40 min content vs 4 min content. Sadly youtube is geared to make video's popular if they are being watched. That sux because 90% of people have very short attention spans, and UA-cam is a sight of many distractions. I can see that people who watch through tables and phones will hang around for only a few mins average, yet people watching on a TV will watch for up to 15 mins average. Problem is 90% of my views come via blasted mobile devices, I dare say your in the same boat. Rock on Pixxy, enjoy your Fall (Autumn)
loving the guitar chat!
1989 Ibanez RG760 with Seymour Duncan Full TAAAAALK
HALLELUJAH! MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! Thank you ever so very much, Mr Lixxx!
The SH-10 Full Shred is the best pickup Seymour Duncan makes.
I agree.
People go crazy over JB and it seems every guitar company keeps putting that awful sounding JB and jazz combo.
Full shred is mid output.
Very balanced lows, mids and highs.
Sits so well in the mix.
JB just smears into the bass and drums.
It wants to take over which is not a good thing while recording.
Maybe playing live is a different story.
Great to see another vid mate. :-) Keep well buddy.
Yo Steve, nice axe bro, and that tone... SWEEEET!
The tone, video and guitar are awesome sounding! More tones from Pixxy!! Love the look of that beast of an axe! Great vid, Steve!! Rock it!! When the kids go back, PixxyLixx 24/7! (laughs!)
Heyyy Steve, another fine pick, I love to listen to your guitar shopping stories! Really beautiful, clean tone... and below your 300$ red line! ;-) You just keep blah-blah-blahing, love it! Have a rocking weekend! I hear you, here it's crazy muggy, too.
Man that sounds great. I'm going to check out their site.
I love the neck joint on it man
Those single coils sound great! I really liked the little riff at 17:00.
Steve! ! I bought an RG560! I still have it. I modded it a little. my first "good guitar" as a teen ager. I have a couple more Ibbys. memory lane brother. \m/
Yess new video!
This model was my main guitar until recently, and I bought it in 89! Cool guitar for sure. I got mine for $600 with a case which was a monster deal at the time. Most stores in 89ish had this guitar around $799 without a case. Maybe they were priced higher where I lived, but they definitely weren’t going for $300-500 in stores from what I remember. Mine also has a Floyd rose whammy. And I do remember the brochure. It had all the guys you mentioned, Paul Gilbert and Vinnie Moore as well. Thanks for the review!
awesome guitar i really like it especially for metal
Spanish Castle magic!! Been years since I didn't hear that nice oneee
Hi Pixxi from the UK I have the RGA 121. It's a quality guitar with EMG active pickups. I have managed to get the action down to 2/16ths. It plays great.
Such a sweet axe man
tone is killer as always ROCK ON........
Pixx as your fans we want to here you talk and go "blah blah blah" I personally enjoy it I love listening to what you have to say you've always got a story to tell or an experience to share and your playing is awesome also (I can't speak for other fans) I've Learned a lot about the history of different brands and bands watching your videos because you've kept yourself up to date on the rock and guitar scene and you were there to see it all happen watching your videos is almost like a history lesson in the world of rock and electric guitars I love when you make long vids so to answer your question at the end of this video yes we want that or at least I do like I said I can't speak for everyone rock on pixx \m/
I've got 2 of these rg760 in the jewel blue . i have about 25 guitars but i find i'm always using the rg's . the build quality is excellent .
vintage Seymour duncs r so cool. esp knowing who winds them and stuff. I got lucky with a couple great sounding ones
good work!
Hey the seymour duncan full shred SH10 's voice really comes through great. How do you think it compares to the DiMarzio super distortion? The reason i ask, i have a RG broken mirror pickguard and still deciding on pickups , i have it apart for custom swirl or some other kooL paint job still deciding on that also Help?.
Hey Steve quick question for you, when using pedals on a regular amp, such as my 5150 50w head, how do I stop them from taking power from my amp? Should they be true bypass, should I get one of those Voodoo Lab Power supplies, or am I just doing something wrong? Also Should I plug them in through the back of the amp head using the return and send part, or just plug the cables from the amp, to the pedals and into my guitar?
What a deal. I like the black RG's and late 90's/early 2000 ibby's are special.
I have been following your page for a few months now. Do you still have this guitar?
Man, I love your vid's. I've been thinking of putting one of these in an Ibanez S series made in Japan. I love that guitar. I think I bought it for like 175 dollars and it has the cool edge trem. It was all out of whack and I just had to do a set up and it's ready to go with some new pups. Thanks man..
Tim
Same with the old 80s-90's MIJ Jacksons fantastic japanese build qulaity and very stable necks in my experience!
I believe the REVALVER 4 is the King Of The Hill right now (specially if you run it in stereo mode) , the simulations are soo realistic and responsive, even better than BIAS imo
Cool videos Yoo whats youre delay and reverb settings?rock on cheers
I personally think the SD Full Shred is a killer pup. Its more versatile and adaptive than most high output pickups. Its absolutely perfect for rock. But you can actually pull a PAF type tone out of it with some tweaking. I can't tell you how many fellow guitarists have just drooled over the tone i could get out of it. If you own a Katana amp?? Crank the master,.....put everything at noon except the volume,.....and you throw a T.C. Electronics Dark Matter in front, and from there,....you can begin to extract a very useable and articulate PAF type tone out of it. And mind you,...that Dark Matter pedal is a serious hidden gem when used correctly. Its an amazing pedal. And very inexpensive. Its worth buying just because of how cheap it is.
Great story!
Cool axe sounds great,mybe you could do an updated guitar collection vid stay cool
Hey Steve,
having owned lots of Ibby's, is there any Ibanez you can receommend which suites following criteria:
- fixed bridge (string-thru is also okay)
- mahogany body
- fretmarkers (not the floral stuff like JEMs, nice and clear fretboard inlays)
- H/H pickup setup
- good sound (meaning no cheap hardware, pickups will be changed anyways)
- usual great playability of the Wizard necks
- well priced
- can be aquired second hand
- preferably RG or RGD shape (ART and S and others are not my cup of tea)
I've been all over the net find such a guitar but no success... I hope you can help me :(
Dude! I've got an '89 RG 760! We're guitar brothers! Stock pickups in mine, tho. Since mine is lipstick red, I also opted for the leopard print strap.
I bought my first guitar in 1990 and it was a white RG760. I paid around 400$ brand new. Pretty good deal. The hardware is in fact kind of a smokish metallic color. The single coils are what they call "vertical" humbuckers, single coil sound without any hum. I still own this guitar today... with the original USA made C2 and F2 pickups and the original edge trem. It still stays in tune perfectly. A really well made guitar.
What’s your amp settings and effects, I can’t get my full shreds to sound that good
hey man love your stuff. I can never seem to figure out the proper way to get my guitar to connect to my computer. what program are you using? maybe you can help me out!
never mind heard the program my issue is connecting my guitar it picks up that its connected but I don't have any out put! it's driving me nuts
Eb tuning everytime sir?
If you don't mind if love to hear you talk about your musical history. I'm sure some of it has been covered over the years and I'm not asking for anything too personal but you seem to have some really nice technique and I think it would be interesting to hear about your musical journey, bands you were in and stuff like that. Just a thought. Thanks!!!
Better than my experience with guitar center. They said it would take 3-5 days to ship and it took 2 weeks.
What is the best pickup for your style of music on the bridge sir?
Hey man do you have any vids where you play a complete song?
RG 760... unsung hero of the ibanez line haha
killer guitar
I'm so jealous of you. It's impossible to find RG 550-570s in that condition for that price in the UK. Honestly makes me consider moving just for my love of vintage Ibbys.
I like your story telling
PixxyLixxx Awesome Pixster' I had a Rg 760 that had usa Ibanez/Dimarzio stock pickups Humbucker Singlecoil Humbucker configuration in same color.
Hey Pixxy, love your videos! I recently picked up a USA Peavey Wolfgang Special (black) for $350 with bag off of my local CL. Score! However, I’m not exactly thrilled with the pups, especially the neck. It’ll do for now, but thinking about the PV HP Special pups or a Dimarzio Bluesbucker in the neck and Duncan Full Shred in the bridge. Thoughts? Oh...and I have a Tech21 Fly Rig 5 going through a Tech21 Power Engine 60. You should definitely check that out. Great tone that is amazingly portable. \m/ :)
What's your opinion on the 90's Ibanez made Fender Heartfield's ?
I miss that sweet ass axe of mine.
'89 UCGR Music of the Sphere in RG760 format
My dad gave me his rg760 and peavey bandit 112 with a bd-2 blues driver, very nice 👌
I like these videos
Whats up with the Ibanez swoosh missing on the higher end, non signature models?
The logo without the swoosh just looks so odd to me.
Funny review and fucking beautiful playing.
Just saw a used RG652FX used for $600...is that a good deal?
Did you touch up the body or just clean it up because it does not look bad on my monitor thanx Richard Go Pens
ah yes when the RG was a awesome guitar!
I prefer these old fujigen ones to any of the new RG's
I do love the J customs though
Lol, Steve dropping the F Bomb.... I don't remember you doing that on here before, but it's ok ;)
RG 350 DX any good?
Great guitar for real man !! we like the RG series
but I would like some strato and tele caster guitars (70s 80s) rock !!>?
Screwed up is a mild term when describing guitar centers used page now lol. The pics are better but that is the only thing. It's such a headache to use now because of all of the parameters that have to be entered every time. I'm right there with you on that one.
First of all, you are a wealth of information, a great player and very entertaining. I've also learned a bit on how to get better deals on used stuff so thank you. So how about something a bit more classic rock or prog vs. 80's metal? A little Tull, Rush, Dream Theater…..who knows…mix it up.
How about a PRS SE find?
how bad is a 1/2 inch crack on the neck of my rg570 where the bolt for the locking nut is? is this a common problem?
Callum Hastie are you cranking down on the bolts when you tighten them?
+Callum Hastie Thats a common problem yes,also stress cracks along the neck pocket.But its mostly an cosmetic problem and doesnt affect the function of the guitar.
Thanks, I was getting a little worried. I don't really notice it when I play so I'll just leave it for now.
A/C at 66F, dang my skinny little Florida ass starts shivering if it gets below 78F. Love the vids btw!
I'm sure I've heard this story before, you sure this hasn't been uploaded before? :)
whats your amp.. dudes?
would you say that the full shred is better than a jb?
I would.
What, in your opinion, is the best humbucker for that definitive late 70's-80's metal sound?
Jason Lee Can't go wrong with a Super Distortion. That's only my opinion though.
EMG 57 or 81 works the best for me
I think a JB or Super Dist. would be the most widely recommended.
Full shred its right there infront of you.
Don’t even go the jb jazz combo that every guitar company keeps putting in their guitar
All you guitar players if you haven’t played the full shred.
Do yourself a favour and experience it.
Is this van halen brown tone?
Do a review on the ProLine Series :)
nice vid,lol mine went back two weeks ago. lol
I've had a 760 for 11 years - it has the loveliest neck I've played. Better than the Jem it was derived from. 760's and 770's were Prestige level instruments.
19:15 very clean
From what people say the originator IBZ pickups were basically a super distortion 2. Slightly different but for intents and purposes a super2.
ilove u genuinely
Are the strings hard to change on a guitar like that one.
+Andrew Collins yeah generally all floyd roses are more difficult to change strings on. Stays in tune though.
Andrew Collins After few times it isn't that hard, nothing to worry about.
+Tetheral OK Thanks for info.
An RG760 with case for under $300 is a ridiculous deal. Everyone goes for the RG5xx series guitars, but the RG7xx series came with better electronics. I don't think you're finding them for even $500 now though. Guitar prices have gone nuts for good used gear. Back in the early 2000's I bought and sold so many RG's and BC Rich STiii's for under $300, now people want upwards of $1k. :(
I have a Harley Benton 655 left handed I hate the pick ups so I’ve ordered some Seymour Dunkins cause I’ve never used them and I have a good credit with the company so I just wanted to see how they sound because I don’t like ceramic magnets
