Meranti body with Quantum pickups and Wizard III maple neck for unlimited playability.
The Ibanez RG421 electric guitar features a thin, flat, and fast Wizard neck that’s strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability. It features a two-octave, 24-fret jatoba fretboard that also provides a wide tonal range. The jatoba has a reddish-brown color and produces a rich mid-range with a crisp high end. The jumbo frets contribute to smooth playability, especially for single-note playing, while the meranti body provides a scooped mid-range with a sweet tone.
The Quantum pickups provide accelerated bass response for exceptionally fast tracking of high-speed staccato riffing with crushing mid-range and precise high-end articulation. The F106 bridge enriches sustain and makes string height adjustment able to be done easily and independently.
The Ibanez RG is the most recognizable and distinctive guitar in the Ibanez line. Three decades of metal have forged this high-performance machine, honing it for both speed and strength. Whether you favor a hardtail (fixed) bridge or Ibanez’s industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument.
