In this guitar review and demo we take a look at the Ibanez RGA42. With very similar specs to its sister the RGA42FM, I break down the reasons why this guitar is not worth your time or money.
As promised, here’s what you should consider instead (and bear in mind prices may change after upload!):

Used Ibanez Options
Iron Label RG

RG350EXZ
(No links for these but easily searchable on eBay, Reverb etc.)
Some other suggestions:
Ibanez RG421EX (same bridge but a much better neck and feeling guitar)
