In via trade! This 2003 Ibanez RGT3020FM Prestige is a super high-quality shred machine. It’s one of the rare neck-through Ibanez models from the early 2000’s. This model features the fat ‘Ultra’ neck profile that’s great for folks who prefer a much thicker neck carve than the usual Wizard. The pickups are a set of Dimarzio Paf Pros which are clear and articulate. It also features the Edge Pro bridge, which stays in tune great! This was my personal guitar (Cam here!) and I traded it in for something that happened to come in the shop. Sometimes, you have to let something go that you love, to get something else you love!  

From Ibanez: There are three principles behind the Ibanez Prestige line: Precision, Performance, and Playability. Prestige combines high-tech manufacturing techniques with old-world Japanese craftsmanship, in order to achieve true innovation in design and construction. The series incorporates ideas and suggestions from musicians from around the world as the cornerstones of the Prestige production process.

The RG is the most recognizable and distinctive guitar in the Ibanez line. Three decades of metal have forged this high-performance machine, honing it for both speed and strength. Whether you favor a hardtail (fixed) bridge or our industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument.

How Does It Play?

We give a thorough setup to every instrument that comes through our shop. From truss rod to tremolo, pickup heights to intonation, you can rest assured we have this one dialed in. The action sits at 4/64” across all strings measured at the 12^th fret.
