IBANEZ RG420HPFM-ALG

Electric guitars from the RG series of the Japanese brand Ibanez are among the most famous instruments of this type. Their flatter, faster neck, lighter weight and distinctive cutouts with stylishly pointed horns for easy movement across the entire fingerboard are the reasons for their extraordinary popularity among rock and metal guitarists.

The body of the RG420HPFM-ALG is made from nyatoh wood and a spectacular veneer top made from figured maple. Glued to the fast maple neck with Wizard III profile is a fingerboard made of jatoba, a wood also known as Brazilian cherry, fitted with twenty-four jumbo-sized frets. The heat treatment of the maple neck enhances its characteristics while giving the guitar the look and feel of a mature/played instrument. White position and side luminescent dots make it easy to navigate the fingerboard surface.

The combination of two passive humbuckers from the respected Di-Marzio brand with Alnico magnets, a high output tailpiece and a milder neck, gives the guitar a clean dynamic sound with good articulation suitable for aggressive metal styles. In addition to the standard controls (volume, tone shutter, three-position toggle switch), the guitar offers a coil-tap switch that changes the character of the humbucker to single-coil in seconds.

The strings are anchored in the company's Die-Cast tuning machines and a double-turn tremolo, which you use to embellish your playing with impressive sound effects. Locks on the zero fret ensure tuning stability with frequent use of the tremolo lever.

Guitars with the Standard designation are Ibanez's entry-level line. These are affordable instruments that appeal to beginners and experienced players alike with their quality workmanship, sound and playability.
