Ibanez RGRT420 RG Reverse Headstock, Thru Neck, Weathered Black Overview
The RGRT420 is part of the Ibanez RG series, a line known for its high-performance and metal-centric design. Built for speed and strength, the RGRT420 features neck-through construction and a reverse headstock, making it ideal for aggressive playing styles. The Wizard III 5-piece Maple/Walnut neck is thin, flat, and fast, offering exceptional playability. With a two-octave, 24-fret fretboard, it provides a broad tonal range, allowing players to access both fast solos and complex chord progressions. The Jatoba fretboard enhances the guitar’s performance, producing a rich midrange with crisp highs.
Jumbo frets allow for smooth playability, especially for single-note runs, and the Nyatoh wing body delivers a rich, resonant mid-low end, perfect for driving metal tones. The guitar is equipped with Quantum H-H pickups, which are designed to handle high-speed riffing with a powerful bass response, crushing mids, and articulate highs, making them well-suited for metal and hard rock genres. The Edge-Zero II tremolo system ensures stability and comfort, with its low-profile design and stud-lock function that maintains tuning accuracy even during aggressive tremolo use.
