Ibanez RGRT420-WK

The Ibanez RGRT420-WK is a 6-string electric guitar from the RG series, built around a performance-focused neck-through construction for enhanced sustain and smooth access to the upper frets. It features a 5-piece Maple/Walnut Wizard III neck running through an Okoume wing body, paired with a Jatoba fretboard and 24 jumbo frets. The 648mm (25.5") scale length and thin Wizard III profile make it particularly suited to fast rhythm work, lead playing and demanding modern guitar techniques. (Ibanez)

The RGRT420-WK uses a pair of Ibanez Quantum passive ceramic humbuckers in an HH configuration. These pickups are designed for a quick low-end response and precise note definition, making them effective for fast, tight riffs and high-gain applications while retaining a full-bodied mid-to-high frequency response. The 5-way pickup selector provides five pickup combinations, offering additional tonal flexibility beyond the standard neck and bridge humbucker sounds. (Ibanez)

For expressive performance, the guitar is equipped with an Edge-Zero II tremolo bridge with a low-profile design and stud-lock function for improved stability. A locking nut works with the tremolo system to help maintain tuning during tremolo use. The Weathered Black (WK) finish, black hardware and white-dot Jatoba fretboard give the instrument a modern, understated appearance, while the mono-unit output jack is designed for durability and reduced unwanted movement.
