This combination is the most frequent with two-wood bodies on solid electric guitars. This is a highly playable guitar, set up very well.Ĭomes with original hard case. Ibanez RGT42DX Features: Wizard II (neck-thru body) 5pc. RGT42DX is a model from the RGT series and it comes with a solid, double-cut body made of mahogany back and maple top.

The bridge works fine as a “hard tail” and the nut works fine without being locked.īeautiful satin gunmetal gray hardware Ibanez calls “Powder Cosmo”. This RGT42DX FM was traded in recently, without its tremolo arm and locking nut top piece. This Ibanez guitar is in great original shape, minus a couple attachments. Headstock and fingerboard are bound with cream binding. Ibanez calls this finish “Transparent Lavender Flat Flame”.ĭeluxe Shark Tooth inlay patterns on the rosewood fingerboard. The pairing of Maple and Walnut is tastefully stained with a transparent midnight blue, showing the grain figure. I'm also including the Ibanez strap that came with the guitar.Beautiful flamed Maple top and Maple/Walnut neck-through construction. It is a little scuffed and the center latch is missing, but the inside is good and does not smell. The guitar did not have a case when purchased so I am including an Ibanez "Professional Deluxe" case originally from an Ibanez RG. I also offset the bridge and pickup alignment with the fretboard such that there is a little more room on the top E string than the bottom E string where you need it. It has a small scratch on front body from when I was working on installing new parts and is still missing the guitar plug backplate but is otherwise in like new condition. I also could not find the cover to the guitar plug. The pickups are upgraded to stock Ibanez RG Prestige V7 and V8's from the original Infinity 1 and 2 pickups. Since they came with 0.22 uF tone capacitors, I wired them in parallel to get a darker tone with 0.44 uF. In addition, I replaced both control pots with genuine Fender parts. I couldn't find exact replacements, so I replaced the pickup rings and knobs with generic black parts and upgraded the bridge to a Gotah GTC101. Somewhere down the line I lost most of the original smoke colored hardware (bridge, pickup rings, and one knob). So, I never finished the project, and it has been sitting in its case since then.
I intended to fix the bridge and pickup alignment issues back when I purchased it but only got around to removing the hardware and filling in the mounting holes. I bought this guitar new back in 2007 but never really played it since there were some minor bridge and pickup position defects and dead spots in the control pots.
