Unrivalled sonic diversity
A true powerhouse with a tonal range that is hard to match. The RG5440C's electronics are what make it truly stand out. The duo of EMG SA pickups, which are located in the neck and middle position, produce a classic and clean voicing. Its design reduces noise levels and prevents any unwanted feedback. These pickups are perfect for clean or bluesy sounds, and it will not disappoint.
On the other hand, the EMG 81 bridge humbucker is designed to deliver an intense high-end cut and remarkable sustain. This is perfect for heavier music genres like rock, metal, and punk. The humbucking design also ensures that there is minimal noise and feedback. While the 81 is most suited for lead playing, it can handle chording as well. What's more, a 5-way switch makes this Ibanez a versatile instrument that can produce a wide range of sounds. By combining the pickups, you can create a countless number of tones that range from subtle and quiet to explosive and powerful.
A dream to play
The RG5440C is not only a tonal powerhouse, but its design also prioritizes playability. The neck of the guitar, made of maple and wenge, is specially crafted to enable effortless playing. Its materials are sculpted into Ibanez's classis super wizard profile, which offers unparalleled smoothness, allowing you to play the guitar with ease. This design is particularly intuitive, ensuring you can navigate around the macassar ebony fingerboard with minimal effort.
And with its jumbo fret size and offset inlays further contribute to the overall feel of the guitar. Thanks to the larger fret size, it is easier to apply vibrato and execute complex playing techniques. Moreover, the African mahogany body makes it feel sturdy and reliable, while its gloss polyester finish gives the instrument a refined and sleek appearance. All these features contribute to making the RG5440C a guitar that's not only enjoyable to listen to but also comfortable and fun to play.
Maintain your model's beauty
Alongside your guitar, you also receive a case for keeping your guitar safe whilst on the road. Its hardshell exterior protects your instrument from accidental bumps and scratches during transportation or storage. Additionally, the snug fit prevents any movement of the guitar inside the case, further reducing the chances of damage during transit. An excellent way to ensure the utmost protection and preservation of your prized RG5440C.
