Product Description
The Ibanez AR420 keeps the spirit of the classic AR Series alive while adding modern playability and eye-catching style. With its carved Flamed Maple top over an Okoume body, dual Super 58 humbuckers and flexible Tri-sound switching, this double-cut guitar is built for players who want vintage-flavoured tones, rock-solid tuning stability and a stunning finish that looks awesome under stage lights!
Whether you’re chasing smooth jazz cleans, crunchy classic rock tones or articulate fusion leads, the AR420-BMG delivers with ease. Its comfortable neck, Jatoba fingerboard and medium frets make it a joy to play for long sessions, while the Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change Classic tailpiece keep everything feeling stable.
Classic AR design, modern feel
The AR series is one of Ibanez’s earliest original designs, and the AR420 model proudly continues that legacy. The familiar double-cut, carved-top silhouette offers great upper fret access and a balanced feel whether you play seated or standing. A 3-piece Maple neck with a smooth set-in joint gives you a fast, comfortable platform for everything from chords to high-register solos.
Super 58 pickups with Tri-Sound switching
Ibanez Super 58 humbuckers are renowned for their moderate output and vintage-flavoured tone, delivering warm, musical cleans and smooth, articulate overdrive. Each pickup is paired with a dedicated Tri-sound switch, giving you three distinct voices per humbucker. This expanded palette lets you move from full, rounded humbucker sounds to brighter, more focused single-coil and parallel textures at the flick of a switch.
Features
- Okoume body with Flamed Maple top: A gorgeous Flamed Maple top for serious stage presence, paired with an Okoume body that brings a bright, solid sound.
- 3-piece Maple neck: Provides excellent strength and enhanced resonance, helping every note ring out clearly.
- Jatoba fingerboard: Offers a rich midrange and crisp highs, with medium frets that make it easy to play accurately — whether you’re comping chords or ripping intricate lead lines.
- Super 58 pickups: Vintage-voiced and warm, delivering moderate output with smooth, musical character.
- Dual Tri-Sound switches: Each humbucker has its own Tri-Sound switch, giving you three distinct tonal modes per pickup. This allows you to move from full humbucking power to single-coil style textures without changing guitars.
- Gibraltar Performer bridge: Rock-solid tuning stability with low-profile saddles for maximum playing comfort.
- Quik Change Classic tailpiece: String changes made simple — swap out your strings in record time and get back to playing!
