Ibanez RG450DXB Electric Guitar

Looking for a metal machine? The Ibanez RG450DXB guitar screams speed and outright tone. The rich white finish with white pickguard makes for a classic visual statement on this RG's Meranti body, and the sharktooth inlays in the bound jatoba fretboard add a touch of throwback vibe. As the originators of the thin, fast neck, the Wizard III is yet another achievement in player comfort -- comfort that translates into maximizing player performance. The proprietary Infinity humbucking pickups yield a whole palette of thick, distorted tone textures. But few things can better animate a guitar performance than the Ibanez STD-DL tremolo system.

Wizard III Maple Neck

Ibanez's thin, flat, and fast, yet strong and sturdy, Wizard neck offers unlimited playability for demanding players, and features a two-octave 24-fret fretboard for wide tonal range.

Quantum Pickups
