Premium quality without paying a premium.

This RG Premium electric guitar, the RG920QMZ, stands astride quality and affordability with a foot (bout?) planted firmly in each camp by providing a combination of moderate price, superior quality, pro features, and excellent feel and finish. The RG Premium has an American basswood center and a quilted maple top while the Wizard Premium neck is given the Premium fret edge treatment for a fast, smooth feel. USA-made DiMarzio/Ibanez humbuckers provide volcanic toneage worthy of Krakatoa and Vesuvius. The Edge Zero II bridge with the ZPS3Fe spring system returns you to "zero" — center point — after each use of the tremolo arm that allows radical tremolo effects with flawless tuning accuracy.

Basswood body
Basswood is a comparatively lightweight wood, which makes it very comfortable for extended playing. With a good balance of highs and lows, basswood is right in between alder and mahogany in sound character.

Features

  • American basswood body
  • Quilted maple top
  • 5-piece maple/walnut Wizard Premium neck with premium fret edge treatment
  • Bound rosewood fretboard
  • 24 jumbo frets
  • Offset dot inlays
  • USA-made DiMarzio IBZ RG N neck humbucker
  • USA-made DiMarzio IBZ RG B bridge humbucker
  • Master tone/volume
  • 5-way pickup switch
  • Edge-Zero II tremolo with ZPS3 (Zero Point System 3 Fe)
  • Deluxe ibanez gig bag

The RG Premium: affordable quality, order yours today.

Amazing!!

| Review By: Mark Ramos | 4 months, 1 week ago

3 people out of 3 found this review helpful

Features:

guitar looks great, the desert red stands out the most, its such a pretty guitar! yet very versatile!

Quality:

I only had it for a month and I haven't had any problems with it yet, the pickups are great and the harmonics sound amazing, its surprisingly light and the neck is really smooth, Ibanez has done a great job on the frets. The trem system is real simple and easy to setup, I'm a noob to tremolos but good research and I got it down in no time.

Value:

Its great for something close to a prestige, its worth it!

Overall:

Great product and new on its line for Ibanez, the guitar feels great and really nice, neck is real fast, pickups are great and the price range is good, really fantastic guitar!

A guitar worth the price

| Review By: Fei Liu | 5 months, 2 weeks ago

6 people out of 7 found this review helpful

Features:

In terms of features, this guitar got all the stuff that usually comes with the prestige series, 5pc neck, dimarzio pickups. This is really the lowest price you can pay for to get those features.

Quality:

Quality is acceptable. The finish is a little thin. No major flaws,

Value:

Great value for the features and sound.

Overall:

Generally speaking, this is a guitar worth buying. If you are looking for a thin neck guitar with versatile sound styles,and you don't wanna pay a lot, this is the one you should get.

Good But Not Perfect

Overall:

I purchased the RG920QMZ LI and am pleased, though not without caveat.

 

Ibanez's new Premium line is very good.  As others have already indicated, the neck of this guitar is outstanding.  I own a number of Prestige models and can say with all certainty that the Premium neck is comparable.  The Premium's smaller fretboard radius is hardly noticeable.  In fact, since the Premium's fretboard is a little more narrow than Prestige models, some might even find the Premium's neck more comfortable.

 

The guitar itself is well balanced, little different from an RG Prestige.  The Quilt veneer is OK, though it lacks depth.  I have a Prestige with flame veneer and there is little doubt that the Prestige flame veneer is more convincing than the Premium's quilted veneer.  This is not the end of the world if only because the veneer is more than passable in the right light.

 

Having said all that, I've got one significant problem with the Premium series.  At this point, Ibanez needs to step up its quality control.  The Premium I initially received from MF was flawed-- B-stock worthy.  The binding had been stained to match the fretboard.  The stain had also accumulated under the frets.  When I polished away the stain, I realized that the binding was nicked at the 21st fret.  The stain, it seems, was intended to obscure the nick in the binding. Naturally, I was more than a little ticked off.

 

Fortunately, I was allowed to exchange the guitar.  The replacement is just fine-- what it ought to be.

 

Still, this should not happen with a "high end" guitar.

 

So while the RG Premium is a guitarist's guitar, be sure to inspect it very closely.

Professional features at an affordable price!

| Review By: Dean-sFHiY | 9 months, 1 week ago

7 people out of 7 found this review helpful

Features:

5 position pickup selector gives a variety of sounds.  Edge Zero II bridge is the best on the market.

Quality:

The finish is even better than expected.  The frets were perfectly manicured.  Even the action was flawless.

Value:

Prestige quility at a much lower price point.

Overall:

I have owned many Ibanez guitars over the years including one Prestige model.  Th RG series feels and sounds the best for my more aggressive playing style.  I purchase this guitar in the Liquid Inferno color.  It is even brighter than it looks in the picture and takes a while to get used to  but the finish and quilted woods used are insane.  The finish rivals American made guitars costing 3 times as much.

 

Many guitars when they arrive require additional setup but when this guitar arrived, the frets, action and even intonation were all perfect.  This guitar as stated is well suited for the musician who plays out a lot and needs a durable guitar that will not wear out quickly.  The DiMarzio humbuckers offer the perfect combination of power and clarity even at full distorted levels.  I wish I could get the same guitar with a H-S-H pickup trio but Ibanez is not offering these in the USA yet.  I am so pleased with this model, that I am planning on purchasing a second one of these in the Black Ice finish in the near future.

 

I would greatly encourage anyone who is considering the purchase of a RG series guitar to save up a few more dollars and put it in this guitar.  The old saying is "You get what you pay for" - In this case, you definately get that and more!

Overall:
The price on this guitar is absolutely insane.  I've owned guitars costing 3 times as much that weren't as comfortable and versatile as the Ibanez RG920QMZ.  First let me say that I am NOT a shedder but this guitar can cover so much territory that it has quicky become my go to axe.  The pickups are hot and articulate but not "brash" sounding like active's.  The can cover classic rock, hard rock, heavy metal and METAL METAL as well.  Heck you can even get a nice blues & funk sound if you play around a bit.  For $899 this guitar is a steal!
