Ibanez RG7421 Walnut Flat

What we say:

At A Glance

A favourite choice of many metal players, Ibanez have been providing well built and high performing guitars for some time. The RG is a classic model that many musicians know and love and from this offering, we can see why. The Quantum pickups certainly sound the part and with the aid of a 5-way tone switch deliver tonal excellence with ease. The construction is what you expect from Ibanez and the end result is a well built guitar ready for hours of gigging. Guitarists looking to enter the world of the 7 string guitar would be doing well to pick this as a transition instrument: the quality is there, the price is low and the sounds are large!

Features We Love:

Wizard II-7 Neck

This 3 piece maple neck makes the switch across to 7 strings that bit easier. Getting used to the slightly wider neck can take a little time but thankfully this comfortable shape will have you moving up and down the neck with ease.

Quantum Pickups

These pickups have been voiced with heavy music in mind. The fast bass response allows for clarity when the speedy staccato riffing is paramount. The mids and highs are powerful but not piercing so regardless of what you choose to play, it will be captured well on the Quantums.

Fixed Bridge

Not everyone wants to have a guitar with a tremolo system. A fixed bridge offers great tuning stability and handles aggressive riff picking styles and hard strumming extremely well.

Highlights:

• High quality Ibanez construction
• Perfect for the metal player
• A great choice for those looking for their first 7 string model
