IBANEZ RG421HPFM-BRG

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 RG421HPFM-BRG 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.

Tuning stability is guaranteed by the attachment of the strings in the company's mechanics and a solid F106 bridge with string anchorage through the body. The guitar's stylish look is accentuated by a nice Blue Reef Gradation finish and gold hardware.

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