Key Features

Wizard III 3pc Maple neck – Ibanez’s Wizard neck, renowned for its thin, flat profile and exceptional playability, is constructed with durability in mind. The 24-fret fretboard spans two octaves and provides a vast range of musical possibilities.
Maple top / Nyatoh body – The Maple top sonically enriches the response while picking. The Nyatoh body provides a rich mid-low end.
Luminescent side dots – The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.
Macassar Ebony fretboard – Macassar Ebony produces tight lows and mid range along with strong attack in the highs and quick response with rich sustain.

The Ibanez RG Range

The RG series is one of the best-selling solid body hard rock and metal electric guitar ranges ever produced. The comfortable body shape, sharp style and stunning build-quality combine to create a stunning tonal experience.

Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker

The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups provide an aggressive tone and a powerful attack without excess noise. The Fishman Fluence Voicing switch on volume control (push/pull) allows the pickups to switch from a modern, active high output sound to a crisp, clean and fluid sound.

Evertune Bridge

Thanks to the innovative design, the Evertune bridge uses springs to provide a counterweight to the tension of the guitar strings, which keeps your guitar in tune for longer.

Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
