Manufacturer: Ibanez – Innovation for Decades

Since the 1980s, Ibanez has been one of the leading brands in the field of modern electric guitars. The RG series is one of its best-known lines and has made a name for itself worldwide thanks to its ergonomic designs, fast necks, and versatile sound options. Whether in metal, rock, fusion, or pop—Ibanez offers instruments that are technically state-of-the-art while also boasting attractive designs.

The RG470DXW-WZM fits seamlessly into this formula for success, offering high-quality craftsmanship, robust components, and a well-thought-out design for musicians who want a reliable, versatile instrument—at an excellent value.

Technical Details: Powerful, versatile, and a joy to play

The guitar’s body is made of Meranti, a tonewood with balanced tonal characteristics. It delivers a warm fundamental tone with clear articulation—an ideal foundation for both distorted and clean sounds. The sophisticated Wine Red Frozen Matte finish combines elegant understatedness with a striking appearance, creating a modern, matte look that stands out pleasantly from the classic high-gloss design.

The bolt-on neck is made of maple and, with the Wizard III neck profile, offers a comfortable, flat playing feel. With a scale length of 648 mm (25.5") and a nut width of 43 mm, the neck is ideally suited for fast licks and technical playing. The jatoba fingerboard with a radius of 400 mm supports clean bends and precise tapping alike. 24 jumbo frets ensure optimal control right up to the highest registers.

Visually, the white Sharktooth inlays make a striking statement that underscores the guitar’s sporty character. The locking nut, together with the Edge-Zero II tremolo, ensures an extremely stable tuning setup—ideal for intense tremolo use, dive bombs, or vibrato playing without having to constantly retune.

The pickup configuration consists of two Quantum humbuckers (bridge and neck) and a Quantum single-coil in the middle. This passive pickup setup delivers a powerful, precise response for high-gain sounds, as well as crystal-clear clean tones with plenty of dynamics. The 5-way switch allows you to access a wide variety of pickup combinations—ideal for cross-genre flexibility. A volume and a tone control allow for quick tone shaping right on the instrument.

The hardware is finished in black, emphasizing the guitar’s modern design. It comes factory-strung with D’Addario EXL120 (.009 – .042), a proven standard for versatile playing between rhythm and solo. The tuning machines are also from Ibanez and guarantee stable and smooth tuning performance.
