A shred-ready RG with neck-thru construction.
The Ibanez RGRT420 electric guitar is a high-performance machine built for players who prize speed, accuracy and attitude. Its neck-thru construction delivers unshakable sustain and note-to-note consistency, while the reverse headstock adds a touch of classic swagger. The Wizard III five-piece maple/walnut neck delivers lightning-fast playability across a full 24-fret span. Paired with high-output Quantum pickups, this guitar delivers searing tone with unmatched note clarity and definition. Ibanez's Edge-Zero II tremolo bridge rounds out the package with rock-solid tuning stability, making the RGRT420 a standout on stage, in the studio and beyond.
Nyatoh Wings Over Maple/Walnut Core for Warm Punch With Clear Definition
Tone starts with wood, and the RGRT420 balances muscle with clarity. Nyatoh body wings supply a warm, mid-forward punch and solid low-end support, ideal for tight rhythm work and focused leads. Running through the center, a maple/walnut neck-thru core maximizes sustain and preserves articulation, so complex chords and rapid alternate-picking lines stay distinct. The result is a responsive acoustic voice that translates faithfully under gain—thick where you want it, clear where you need it—before the signal even hits your amp or pedals.
Wizard III 5-Piece Maple/Walnut Neck for Effortless Shredding
When your hands move fast, you need a neck that can keep up. The slim Wizard III five-piece maple/walnut neck offers a flat, stable platform for blazing runs, precise arpeggios and relentless down-picking. A jatoba fingerboard adds crisp top-end snap and supportive mids, while jumbo frets make bends and vibrato feel smooth and controlled. With two full octaves at your command and seamless access to the highest registers, the RGRT420 invites greater exploration, cleaner shifts and more confident phrasing—on stage or in the shed.
Quantum Pickups Deliver Tight, Articulate Gain Tones
Modern metal demands definition. The Quantum humbuckers deliver accelerated bass response for razor-tight riffing, a crushing midrange that cuts through dense mixes and precise high-end articulation for harmonics and rapid single-note lines. Clean up the attack for glassy passages or push hard for saturated aggression—the output stays focused and musical. From surgical rhythm parts to fluid lead work, this HH set keeps your intent intact, tracking every pick stroke and dynamic nuance without smearing under high gain.
Edge-Zero II Tremolo Ensures Stable Tuning and Expressive Control
Go heavy on dives, flutters and shimmers without fighting your tuning. The Edge-Zero II tremolo's low-profile design keeps your picking hand comfortable, while the stud lock function enhances stability under aggressive use. Solid, road-ready hardware throughout underscores the RGRT420's mission: consistent performance night after night. Combined with the reverse headstock's slinky feel on the treble strings and the guitar's inherently rigid neck-thru build, you get a platform that rewards touch, invites expression and stays dialed in.
A Pro-Grade Electric Guitar Built to Push Your Limits
The Ibanez RGRT420 electric guitar is built for guitarists who live at the intersection of speed, power and precision. With its neck-thru construction, Wizard III neck, Quantum pickups and pro-level tremolo, this is a serious metal machine that doesn't compromise on tone or playability. Whether you're crafting intricate leads or hammering down punishing rhythms, the RGRT420 gives you the tools to push your playing to new extremes. Step into the next generation of Ibanez performance and let the RGRT420 do the heavy lifting.
