Is the price shown inclusive of VAT?

Yes. Every price on Northgate Music Co. includes UK VAT at 20%, and a full VAT invoice is emailed with your dispatch confirmation. There are no import duties or handling fees on UK orders.

Will it need a set-up when it arrives?

No. Our workshop completes a full set-up before dispatch — truss rod, action, intonation and fresh strings — and includes the measurements in the box. UK humidity changes may call for a small seasonal tweak later on.

What happens if I don't get on with it?

You have 30 days from delivery to return it for a full refund. We email you a free UK return label, and refunds are processed to your original payment method within 5 working days of the item arriving back with us.

What warranty cover is included?

Two years parts and labour against manufacturing defects, on top of your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Consumables such as strings, reeds, heads and batteries are covered for 90 days.

Unleash Your Inner Metalhead with the Ibanez Prestige RGR5221 Electric Guitar

If you're a metalhead looking for a guitar that can keep up with your aggressive playing style, the Ibanez Prestige RGR5221 is the perfect choice for you. This solidbody electric guitar is a fusion of refined aesthetics, superior sound, and effortless playability. The RGR5221 features an African mahogany body with an eye-catching ash top, which not only looks stunning but also infuses your playing with warmth, brightness, and sustain. The guitar's 5-piece Super Wizard HP neck is ultra-playable and comfortable, making it ideal for fast runs, arpeggios, and chord progressions.

But the real magic happens when you plug the RGR5221 into an amplifier. Equipped with two Bare Knuckle Brute Force humbucking pickups, the RGR5221 delivers a deep, saturated tone that's perfect for heavy music genres like progressive metal, thrash, hardcore, and extreme metal. These pickups are hand-wound by Bare Knuckle to deliver high output and an aggressive voice that cuts through any mix. Additionally, the RGR5221 features a coil tap switch that unlocks a vast array of single-coil tones, giving you even more tonal versatility.

The RGR5221 also boasts a rock-solid Gibraltar Standard II fixed bridge that provides unbeatable stability and sustain. This bridge design anchors solidly to the body, maximizing the string-to-body transfer and enhancing the guitar's resonance. It also has a super-low profile and a smooth surface, making the RGR5221 comfortable to play and perfect for speed-picking techniques. The guitar's Gotoh locking tuners maintain tuning stability, even during the most aggressive playing sessions.

Other features of the Ibanez Prestige RGR5221 Electric Guitar include a bound ebony fretboard, Prestige fret-edge treatment for maximum playing comfort, luminlay side dots for enhanced visibility on stage, and an attractive satin finish that looks great under stage lights.

Overall, the Ibanez Prestige RGR5221 Electric Guitar is a top-of-the-line instrument that's perfect for players who demand the best. Whether you're a seasoned professional or an aspiring musician, the RGR5221's superior build quality, exceptional playability, and versatile sound make it a must-have in your guitar collection.
