Ibanez VISIONS
This instrument is a masterwork that connects the past, present,
and future of Ibanez as one.
Putting the highest quality instruments possible into the hands of more players.
This has long been the guiding principle fueling Ibanez's pursuit of innovation in manufacturing and craftsmanship.
To achieve greater efficiency, Ibanez gradually transitioned from production methods that relied on the instinct and expertise of individual artisans, embracing modern techniques such as quantification and mechanization while preserving the spirit of craftsmanship at its core.
Now, with these special RG models, Ibanez is shining a spotlight on extraordinary craftsmanship once more, achievable only by breaking free from a mass production mindset.
Intricate woodworking processes requiring specialized equipment and finishing methods that elevate instruments to the level of fine art are a testament to the uncompromising skill of master luthiers. These artisan methods have endured and evolved, representing the purest expression of true craftsmanship.
The IV1RG and IV2RG models feature the classic wood combinations and hardware configurations that define the RG legacy. They are further refined with meticulously executed neck-through-body construction for unparalleled precision. Their finishes were specifically chosen to embody contrast: one rooted in tradition, the other in bold experimentation. Together, they reflect Ibanez’s dual commitment to honoring legacy and embracing innovation.
Driven by relentless refinement and an unwavering commitment to quality, the Ibanez RG has its roots in metal but has evolved into the ultimate instrument for players of many technically demanding styles. It's an ever-advancing companion for those who seek to transcend limits. The IV1RG and IV2RG are born as enduring symbols of that identity, carrying the soul of the RG into the future.
What to preserve and what to transform—the past and present of the RG come together in perfect harmony. These two models stand as a bold intersection of Ibanez’s legacy and its future, embodying its enduring vision.

Meticulously fashioned from the finest woods available—like Bastogne Walnut, Pale Moon Ebony, and Ash—this SR is the culmination of the combined efforts of the expert hands that helped shape it. The utmost care was utilized in this process, which can be observed in even the finest details. Just like the chemistry between musicians, the resonance between woods matters, and these choices were made with mindful intent.
Once you hold this instrument, created for a lifetime of music, you’ll know it’s something greater than wood and strings—it’s a reflection of thought, inspiration, and imagination, shaped into sound with unshakable confidence. It’s an undeniable realization radiating the raw beauty of nature while embodying uncompromising precision and artisanship.
