The 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 our industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument.
Wizard III Maple neck
Ibanez’s thin, flat and fast Wizard neck is strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability and features a two-octave 24-fret fretboard for a wide tonal range.
Jatoba fretboard
Jatoba has a reddish brown color and produces a rich mid range with a crisp high end.
Jumbo frets
Jumbo frets contribute to smooth playability, especially for single-note playing.
Meranti body
The Meranti body provides a scooped mid-range with a sweet tone.
Quantum H-S-H pickups
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.
Edge-Zero II tremolo
The Edge Zero II bridge design features a lower profile tremolo for playing comfort and stud lock function for stable tuning.
