Description

Essential Information About the Ibanez RG GIO GRGR330EX-BKF Guitar

  • Double-locking tremolo and locking nut for exemplary tuning stability during dive-bombs.
  • Two Infinity R humbuckers with a 5-position selector switch to go from massive riffs to sharp leads.
  • Fast GRG maple neck, 24 frets, and 400 mm radius for smooth and precise playing.
  • Lightweight poplar body, satin black "BKF" finish with a modern look designed for metal.

The RG, a Metal Icon, Made Accessible by the GIO Series

Since the late 1980s, Ibanez's RG has established itself on metal stages thanks to its extreme playability and effectiveness. The GIO series retains the DNA of this bestseller while making it more affordable, without sacrificing the brand's quality control. The GRGR330EX-BKF thus offers the style, speed, and reliability of an RG at a price designed to equip ambitious musicians.

Who Is It For and What Styles?

Perfect for motivated beginners to intermediate players who want to progress quickly in metal, hard rock, or metalcore. The thin neck, 24 frets, and double-locking tremolo favor shredding techniques, tight palm mutes, and harmonics. However, it remains versatile enough for punchy rock and tight cleans thanks to the 5-position wiring.

Sound Characteristics

The pair of Infinity R humbuckers delivers a modern tone: a tight and punchy bridge pickup for precise rhythms, and a rounder neck pickup for singing solos. The 5-position selector opens coil-splitting and parallel combinations that brighten the sound for arpeggios and cleans. The poplar body provides balanced mids, while the maple neck and rosewood fingerboard enhance attack and sustain. The double-locking tremolo secures tuning during intensive use.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

Protect the guitar with the M300C case or the IGB540-BK gig bag. Install a set of 9-42 strings (original gauge) to maintain feel and intonation, and add a quality strap for safe standing play.
