The RG Prestige Built for Speed and Reliability

An icon of metal for over three decades, the RG has established itself as Ibanez's precision tool. This Prestige version strengthens the DNA of the line with exemplary Japanese manufacturing, clean finishes, and ergonomics designed for both stage and studio.

For Which Guitarist and Styles?

The RG5121R is aimed at demanding players, from intermediate to professional level. Its fixed hardware and active pickups make it formidable in modern metal, djent, prog, hard rock, and all high-gain variants, while remaining precise for sharp rhythms and fast leads.

The Sound

The African mahogany body provides dense mids and full lows. The rosewood fingerboard enhances balance and definition in the midrange. The pair of Fishman Fluence Modern ceramic pickups delivers an aggressive attack, generous sustain, and minimal noise. The voicing switch offers two personalities: a modern mode with high output for tight distortion, and a clearer, smoother voicing for clean and crunch parts, all controlled by precise and responsive electronics.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

Delivered with an Ibanez hard case for optimal protection. Add a standard strap and a set of electric strings 9-42 or 10-46 (scale length 25.5" / 648 mm) to adjust tension to your playing style. An electric guitar capo and a stable stand complete the setup perfectly.
