Ibanez - RG470DXW WZM

With the RG470DXW WZM, Ibanez is offering a performance-oriented guitar designed for guitarists looking for speed, stability and a broad sound palette. This is the DNA of the RG series, with an instrument designed to follow the musician in rehearsal as well as on stage.

The Wizard III maple neck has a slim, flat profile that's instantly familiar to fast-playing fans. Movement along the entire length of the neck is facilitated by a jatoba fingerboard with a dry, responsive feel, complemented by 24 jumbo frets for a clean attack and good bend control. The standard 25.5" pitch maintains a balanced tension, suitable for both standard tunings and more modern variations.

The meranti body provides a homogeneous response, with a slightly hollowed-out midrange that lets saturation breathe. Combined with the Quantum H-S-H configuration, the guitar offers real versatility. The humbuckers deliver a dense, precise sound for riffs and solos, while the single centre pickup adds clarity and nuance for intermediate sounds or more open passages.

The Edge-Zero II vibrato completes the package with a low profile and excellent tuning stability. Designed for regular use, it allows vibrato effects without compromising tuning. The whole set is reinforced by a string-blocking saddle and a mono-block jack output designed to last.

With its Wine Red Frozen Matte finish, this RG470DXW stands out visually while remaining sober, true to the spirit of guitars geared to playability and efficiency.
