Full Description

Raw tonal power

Humbucking pickups are the first choice for most modern metal and rock players due to the bright, articulate and thick tonal response. The IBZ-6 deliver nothing less than dynamic and cutting tones perfect for shredding leads and full sounding chugs. Featuring an IBZ-6 in the bridge and neck positions, with a 3-way blade style pickup selector, the GRG121DX is adept for a range of playing styles. So you can perform without limitation.

Prime playability

Super smooth. With a GRG maple neck in your hands, your playing will sound spectacular. That's because maple has a bright, punchy resonance, which helps to push your notes through the mix and emphasise them. It's also comfortable to play, allowing your hand to manoeuvre down the New Zealand pine fretboard with total freedom. Given that playability is so important in a modern guitar, this guarantees that you'll be satisfied whenever you play.

Robust, reliable hardware

Your musical toolkit. Equipped with robust hardware like an F106 bridge and jumbo frets, you'll find that this guitar will hold up no matter what you use it for. The bridge will keep your tuning stable, and the jumbo frets give you the freedom to bend and press those strings without risk of damage. The elegant black finish creates a dark, beautiful aesthetic which is enhanced further by the black hardware. The affordability of this guitar makes the quality features stand out even more, and it will easily give you everything you want in terms of tone, durability and looks.
