Ibanez has been a name to be reckoned with in the world of guitars and basses for decades, always at the forefront of developing the right tools for players pushing the boundaries of music. Ibanez designers and luthiers have been the embodiment of this ideology, pushing their skills to the edge of imagination, consistently creating some of the most dynamic instruments ever. The RG Standard series gives you the features of a far more expensive guitar, but at an affordable price. Quantum pickups, a Wizard III maple neck, solid ash body and jumbo frets make these guitars the ideal choice for the aspiring metal shredder. The neck and body have been ergonomically carved to be as thin and lightweight as possible without sacrificing any rigidity or tone, so the guitar doesn't get in your way and you are only limited by your own skills no matter what style you play.
