2026 Ibanez Standard RGA742EX 7-string Black Aurora Burst Matte
Melding a classic RG silhouette with a head-turning archtop design, the Ibanez Standard RGA742EX is a bona fide down-tuned riff machine. This potent, extended-range performer is built upon an aerodynamically sculpted, double-cutaway meranti body bolted to a 3-piece maple Wizard II-7 neck. The 24-fret jatoba fingerboard offers abundant room for rapid-fire finger maneuvers, and the offset dot inlays give this instrument a stage-ready aesthetic that’s sure to impress. Plugging in the RGA742EX unleashes a captivating continuum of tones, courtesy of a twin complement of Ibanez’s Quantum humbuckers. Additionally, the Ibanez F107 hardtail bridge and tuning machines ensure rock-solid reliability — even under extremely primal playing conditions. At its core, the Ibanez Standard RGA742EX is a high-caliber instrument designed for deadly down-tuned riffage, scorching hot shredding, and — above all — crafting intricate, genre-defining metal soundscapes.
