Ibanez - RG5121RET PRT

The RG5121RET PRT Prestige takes a resolutely reliable and consistent approach, without ever sacrificing playing comfort or musicality. This Polar Lights version boasts a bright, modern look, while retaining the sober, professional DNA of the Japanese-made Prestige series.

The African mahogany body provides a dense, well-balanced sound base, with a strong midrange and well-controlled bass response. This choice of wood allows the guitar to retain its substance and depth, even in highly saturated or highly compressed playing situations. The instrument remains easy to read, with excellent note separation no matter how complex the playing.

The Super Wizard HP neck, made from five pieces of maple and wenge, plays a key role in the overall feel. Thin, fast and stable, it encourages fluid movement along the entire length of the scale. The edged rosewood fingerboard, combined with 24 jumbo stainless steel frets, ensures a clean attack and long life. The Prestige Fret Edge Treatment provides a particularly soft finish, immediately perceptible under the fingers.

One of the key features of this RG5121RET is its Evertune bridge. This system guarantees exemplary tuning, regardless of temperature variations, playing force or aggressive attacks. It's clearly aimed at guitarists looking for consistent accuracy, particularly for recording, precise rhythm playing or demanding tuning.

On the electronics side, the guitar is equipped with a pair of Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic pickups. Their response is direct, powerful and quiet, with excellent dynamics. The voicing switch provides access to two distinct sound signatures, offering a more open and articulate alternative to the modern high output sound. Gotoh mechanics, Luminlay side markers and the hard case included complete a coherent package, designed for intensive professional use.
