Ibanez RGD71ALMS BAM Multi Scale 7 String Black Aurora Burst Guitar

Ibanez RGD71ALMS BAM Multi-Scale 7-String Electric Guitar – Black Aurora Burst

The RGD71ALMS BAM is a modern extended-range machine engineered for aggressive performance and technical precision. Its multi-scale fretboard immediately feels different in hand—tighter low-end response on the longer 27" B-string scale, comfortable bend geometry on the higher strings at 25.5"—creating a playing experience tailored to down-tuned and progressive styles. The striking Black Aurora Burst finish pairs with a fast, slim neck profile built for speed and clarity.

Playability & Construction

The Nitro Wizard-7 neck combines Panga panga and walnut in a bolted-on design for stability and resonance. A Macassar ebony fretboard hosts 24 Sub Zero treated fanned frets with white step offset dots and luminescent side dots for visibility in any setting. The multi-scale design ranges from 27" to 25.5", balancing string tension across all seven strings while the 12"–16" compound radius supports both aggressive downstrokes and smooth bends. A Nyatoh body with mono-rail fixed bridge isolates each string for articulate note definition and precise intonation.

Tone & Electronics

Dual Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic active humbucking pickups deliver high-output clarity with multiple voicing options via a push/pull switch on the volume control. This architecture gives you flexibility—from tight, aggressive modern metal tones to more dynamic response—without compromising the articulation that extended-range playing demands. The active electronics ensure consistent output across all seven strings with exceptional headroom.
