Ibanez GRG120QASP-BGD GIO Electric Guitar in Blue Gradation

The Ibanez GRG120QASP-BGD is a GIO Series electric guitar featuring a striking Blue Gradation finish over a quilted maple art grain top. Built around Ibanez's renowned RG body shape, this solidbody instrument combines aesthetic appeal with the playability and tone that have made the RG series a favourite among rock and metal guitarists for decades. The guitar is designed to offer premium features at an accessible price point, making it an excellent choice for intermediate players or those seeking a reliable backup instrument. Construction highlights include a poplar body for balanced resonance and a bolt-on maple neck with a comfortable GRG profile. The fingerboard is crafted from bound purpleheart wood, offering a smooth playing surface with a 400mm radius and 24 jumbo frets for easy bending and lead work. Electronics are centred around a pair of passive Infinity R humbucker pickups, providing a versatile range of tones from crisp cleans to high-gain distortion. These are controlled via a single volume and tone knob alongside a 5-way lever switch, allowing access to various pickup configurations. Hardware includes an Ibanez T102 tremolo bridge for expressive pitch effects and black tuning machines for stable tuning. This guitar is ideally suited for players exploring rock, metal, blues, and alternative genres who require a fast-playing neck and reliable hardware. The 25.5-inch scale length and 9-42 gauge strings offer a familiar feel and tension, while the gloss polyurethane body finish and satin neck finish ensure both visual impact and playing comfort. It arrives from the factory in standard tuning (EADGBE) and serves as a capable platform for practice, recording, or live performance, requiring only an amplifier and cable to get started.
