Classic RG performance
The Ibanez RG series of guitars has remained a standard in rock music for the last couple of decades, thanks to the effortless playability of its Wizard III neck. Switching between aggressive rhythm playing and fluid lead lines is effortless on this slim-profile neck. The guitarists here at Sweetwater love the feel and playability of Ibanez’s RG guitars. You will too!
Fixed bridge stability for rock-solid tuning
The Ibanez RGA42FM sports a fixed bridge, which means no tuning hassles due to a floating vibrato. From standard to lowered tunings your guitar’s tuning will be more stable and the string tension will feel looser. When you change tunings at a gig you’ll be ready to rock without messing with the bridge or locking nuts.
Gargantuan tonal range
With two Quantum humbucking pickups and 5-way switching, you’ll be able to shape your tone any way you like on the RGA42FM. With its aggressive visuals and high output, it will forever be known as a rock guitar, however, the RGA42FM’s fast playability and tonal variety make it a great instrument for almost any style.
For two decades, the legion of Ibanez RG warriors has grown like a virus, thrusting the RG guitar to the head of the metal pack. The Ibanez RG’s fast, flat necks, rabid pickups, and double-locking tremolos deliver demonically charged sounds that go far beyond the world of mere mortals.
