RGs are built for speed, comfort, tone and sustain, and a 24-Fret style of play for creativity and expression. The RG-series grew up with the Metal genre and now sets the standard twenty years later for Metal and Rock players. Jatoba fretboard has a reddish brown color which produces a rich mid range with a crisp high end. Ibanez's thin, flat and fast Wizard neck is strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability and features a two-octave 24-fret fretboard for a wide tonal range. The Quantum pickups provide accelerated bass response for exceptionally fast tracking of high-speed staccato riffing with crushing mid range and precise high-end articulation.
