"If Ibanez can lay claim to the title of being the strongest name in metal guitars, then the RG is the model this reputation was built on. Every inch of this classic screams speed, fury, and expression.
The RG420 is built around a Mahogany body sporting a “down-to-business” Weathered Black finish. It features a fast, thin, Wizard III Maple neck—an achievement in player comfort designed to maximize performance. A Rosewood fretboard with jumbo frets provides a smooth, inviting playing surface and contributes to the RG420’s warm, well-defined tonality. Proprietary Quantum pickups round out this metal mammoth with an entire palette of thick, distorted tone textures that retain high-end articulation. A Standard DL double-locking tremolo system stabilizes tuning for even the most aggressive playing styles."
