Ibanez RG470DXFM-CS

The Ibanez RG470DXFM-CS is an RG Standard electric guitar that combines the fast-playing RG platform with a visually distinctive Flamed Maple top. It features a Wizard III Maple neck, a Meranti body and a Jatoba fretboard with Sharktooth inlays. The 648 mm (25.5") scale length, 24 jumbo frets and slim neck profile provide comfortable access for fast rhythm playing, lead work and technical styles. The CS finish is Cherry Sunburst. (Ibanez)

The guitar features a versatile H-S-H Quantum pickup configuration, with passive ceramic Quantum humbuckers at the neck and bridge and a passive Alnico Quantum single-coil in the middle. The 5-way selector provides five pickup combinations, allowing the guitar to cover full humbucker tones as well as brighter combined and single-coil sounds. Volume and tone controls provide straightforward passive control over the instrument's output. (Ibanez)

For expressive pitch control, the RG470DXFM-CS is fitted with an Edge-Zero II tremolo bridge and locking nut. The low-profile tremolo design includes a stud-lock function and uses 10.8 mm string spacing. Cosmo Black hardware complements the Cherry Sunburst finish, while the guitar is supplied with D'Addario EXL120 strings and includes a tremolo arm and hex wrench. (Ibanez)
