Following review text is verbal representation of numerical rating information:
RG420 is a guitar by Ibanez that stands above many other guitar models in its price range, and for a reason: Ibanez is a well known guitar manufacturer that delivered some fine instruments in the past, and they did it again. RG420 stands up to standards, and will serve you well.
Ibanez went really far in carefully choosing RG420's features. There's little to be wished for, which makes RG420 a full-featured guitar for a musician that plays a music style this instrument is primarily built for. If you decide to go for Ibanez's RG420 you will be happy with its, safe to say - rich features. A job well-done by RG420.
With RG420 you will need some patience to get it to sound right. Ibanez has made a nice sounding instrument but if you want to have it sounding the way you really want, maybe a different set of pickups would do the trick. Most people find the current hardware good enough to suit their playing style and find their tone satisfying enough with what Ibanez has already built into RG420.
Ibanez did a good job. RG420 is built well, the finish feels just right, the hardware is solid. While playing for a longer periods of time you can expect RG420 to stay in tune and you will be pleased while playing, because the neck is extremely comfortable. You might find that over time metal parts will oxidize a bit, but that's normal and nothing to worry about. Ibanez did a really good job with RG420 guitar.
Playing live, RG420 will perform well and will not let you down. It is fairly reliable instrument both in studio and on stage, and will be a long term companion, as it is built to last. Ibanez has made a solid instrument that you will be happy with, and can depend on right from the start. Needs no backup as it has proven to be built really well.
