The Ibanez Standard RG7420EX-BKF Black Flat is a workhorse tuned for metal from head to toe, which is clearly designed for driving riffs and neat shredding, both visually and sonically. The 7-string electric guitar with its elegant matt black look is based on the RG design, which is extremely popular among fans of the heavier genre, and comes with some interesting appointments: two powerful humbuckers for first-class metal sounds and, of course, a particularly slim neck, which is also available for more technically demanding fretboard action.

Cutaways The RG body of the Ibanez Standard RG7420EX-BKF Black Flat is made of resonant meranti and, thanks to its generous tummy cut and practical forearm contour, always offers a comfortable playing position, even on longer sessions. For the fretting hand, on the other hand, the Wizard II-7 neck made of three strips of maple offers unhindered playability, which is in no way restricted thanks to the proven Ibanez All-Access Neck Joint, even when playing in the highest fingerboard positions.

The two Ibanez Quantum 7 humbuckers are the versions of the extremely popular Quantum pickups specially made for 7-strings and produce a powerful sound that knows how to play to its strengths, especially in the high-gain range. The fact that the Ibanez Standard RG7420EX-BKF Black Flat is also capable of covering other sound requirements without any problems is proven by its versatile circuitry, which is equipped with a pickup selector switch with five positions and offers particularly interesting switching options, including parallel switching of the neck humbucker.

Fans of breathtaking lead techniques in particular will have a lot of fun with the Ibanez Edge-Zero II tremolo in a seven-string version. The tremolo system with its double-locking design offers some welcome improvements over its predecessor and impresses with its extremely reliable operation and indestructible tuning stability. The Ibanez Standard RG7420EX-BKF Black Flat is completed by seven die-cast tuners and visually appealing dome poti caps in a uniform black finish.
