A versatile, affordable rocker's weapon.
This Ibanez RG4EXFM1 Electric Guitar's pickups and pickup placement give you the hard-edged cutting tone you want for heavy rock. With a bridge humbucker pickup, middle single coil, and neck humbucker, you'll never run out of tone options.
As heavy as it rocks, this Ibanez RG guitar is made of basswood, a comparatively lightweight wood, which makes it very comfortable for extended playing. With a good balance of highs and lows, basswood sits right between alder and mahogany in sound character. The RG guitar's flamed maple top not only adds beauty, but just a bit of extra brightness to make individual notes stand out. 24 frets offer easy playing for leads and chording and the Ibanez RG4EXFM1 has a tremolo bridge that lets you divebomb all night long. A locking nut helps keep you in tune.
Since 1987, many players have selected the Ibanez RG as their weapon of choice for visiting sonic mayhem on the metal masses. With the right choice of pickups and flat, fast necks, the Ibanez RG4EXFM1 guitar crunches its way to classic status.

NEW REVIEW - One for all and all for one
This guitar is great. Honestly a better system for the price you cannot find. the whammy bar keeps a constant sustain and seems to take any and all abuse humanly possible. so if your doing metal its fast, the center pick up has a good zone similar to a telecaster. the register is high enough that you can keep a decent sustain. if you want a prestige ibanez save the money get this and some di marzio's or EMG's and you'll be running one killer instrument

NEW REVIEW - Beautiful. Just Beautiful.
I have to say that this guitar may be the most pleasing to the eyes of any in this price range. Whether in Transparent Blue or Grey Burst, it is
simply beautiful to look at. I have this one in Grey and the quilted maple one in blue. Other than the looks of it, they're exactly the same.
They felt decent with the stock setup, and felt even better after a full fret level, recrown and polish! The pickups I switched out, because, frankly, they sound muddy and have very little dynamics. I threw in some Dimarzios and it sounds like a dream. An Air Norton in the neck, an Area '61 in the middle and an Air Zone in the bridge. But I like the versatility of the 5-way
switch.
To sum it all up, it's definitely worth your time and investment. It does a lot for being a metal guitar. Play on, all.

NEW REVIEW - Ibanez All the Way!
I was amazed when I played this guitar. I knew it was the one for me, the nice transparent gloss makes it look beautiful and once I used the Edge III tremolo it was deadly and stayed in tune well! The pickups are awsome too, the middle pickups sound great with a clean tone, I'd recommend this guitar to anyone.

a good buy
I love the guitar. I thought about buying the RG5EX1 but fell for the beautiful finish and chrome hardware of this one. I got it in the transparent blue and let me tell you the top veneer is just awesome. Totally worth the extra 80 bucks or so over the EX1, as they are otherwise the same guitar. The neck plays great and is very easy to move up and down the fretboard with speed. The bridge isn't floyd rose licensed, but I have nothing to complain about it so far. Stays in tune well once you set up right and the fine tuners work great. Only problem I've had so far is slight fret buzz on the low E string, but you can't hear it through the amp at all. However, I am going to find a way to get fixed anyway. The pick ups are not the best sounding I've played, but for the money I expected that, and I plan on replacing the bridge pick up when I get some more cash in my pocket. An overall wonderful guitar for the price.

Awesome
I bought this guitar about a year ago, and i have to say by far this is probably my personal favorite guitar iv ever played. I love everything about this guitar. The neck is amazing. Its incredibly smooth. The variety of tones you can get out of this guitar is outstanding. I love the finish too, its beautiful. The best feature overall on the guitar though has to be how well it stays in tune once u get it just right. I wail like all hell on the strings and bend the Whammy as far as it will go and back again and its still perfectly in tune. My only problem with this guitar would have to be the middle pickup. It buzzes a little bit, but its no real big deal. Overall, i love this guitar. Its my main axe and will be for quite a while. i would definitely replace it if ever stolen.
