Ibanez RGA42FM-DEF - Dragon Eye Burst - Electric Guitar!
With the Ibanez Standard RGA42FM-DEF Dragon Eye Burst Flat, Ibanez delivers an electric guitar built for rock and metal — its stylish finish, comfortable playability, and versatile tones make it stand out.
The guitar features a mahogany body topped with a flamed maple top and wide cutaways that give unobstructed access to all positions of the "Wizard III" neck. Plugged in, Ibanez Quantum humbuckers provide articulate rock and metal tones, while premium hardware guarantees long-lasting playing enjoyment.
Ibanez RGA42FM: Stylish Look, High Playability
The Ibanez Standard RGA42FM expertly combines a sharp look with modern playability. The slim mahogany body carries a flamed maple top whose intense flame is emphasized by a transparent Sunburst finish. The wide cutaways also allow unrestricted access to the upper registers of the bolt-on maple neck, which is shaped in the extremely fast "Wizard III" profile — the perfect foundation for complex riffs and virtuosic solos.
Ibanez Quantum Humbuckers for Articulate Sounds
The Ibanez Standard RGA42FM-DEF Dragon Eye Burst Flat is fitted with two Ibanez Quantum humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions. Equipped with powerful ceramic magnets, these pickups deliver clear, differentiated tones for modern rock and metal that retain their definition even under drop tunings. The bridge humbucker impresses with an aggressive voice and a laser-focused midrange that cuts through a band mix, while the neck pickup lets every note sing with smooth sustain. The pickups are controlled via a 3-way blade switch plus master volume and master tone controls.
Ibanez Hardware for Uninhibited Playing Enjoyment
A premium hardware package that ensures uninhibited playing pleasure completes the Ibanez Standard RGA42FM. The body is fitted with an Ibanez Fixed Bridge that, with its string-through-body design, supports a fast attack. Six individually adjustable saddles guarantee precise intonation and a comfortable action. From the bridge the strings run over a 25.5" scale (648 mm) toward the headstock, where Ibanez tuners provide precise and stable tuning.

Criterion for the purchase was the low weight, the same neck and the usual playability to my RG 370.
The guitar is impeccably processed but in the choice of maple veneer more than disappointing. Two different textureless veneers were haphazardly put together here. The varnish does not match the pictures at all! I feel the color scheme in the photo quite stale and boring. After that I would never have decided for this lacquer finish. On the internet it turned out to be a completely different look.
A bright honey yellow with a rimless transition to dark brown - just the way I wanted it - and so is mine (except for the screwed up top veneer).
I have made the experience that Ibanez generally have very large color variations within the models and the illustrations!
The pickups could have been given a little frame (matter of taste).
Otherwise, the part does what it should - good playability, versatile sounds, top price.
Since you get the guitar in the DEF version quite difficult, I have waived a return and am happy!
For my use it is exactly the right guitar, which is why I would buy this again.

Greeting from Leo0815

What pleasantly surprised me was that the guitar was already set up for me. The strings were tuned, the action was low to the factory standards, the intonation was perfect and the frets were perfectly level.
The guitar looks and sounds phenomenal. The neck through body design really helps with that. Overall at this price point, you get way more than you pay for.
