The IC420FM-CRS is a really interesting offering from Ibanez—it's got that comfortable shorter scale length for easier chording and a warm, vintage-inspired tone thanks to the Super 80 pickups. It's a great choice for players who want a slightly different feel and a more mellow, singing sound without sacrificing Ibanez's quality and playability. Ideal for blues, classic rock, and lighter modern styles.

Frequently Asked Questions

The 24.75” scale makes string bends easier and the overall feel more relaxed, similar to a 335-style guitar, while retaining Ibanez’s comfortable neck profile.
They’re definitely in the mid-output range – think more vintage PAF than modern high-gain. They’ve got a warm, thick character that’s great for rhythm playing and bluesy leads.
Okoume can be a bit more porous than mahogany, so it might show finish checking more readily over time with temperature and humidity changes. It's part of its character, though, and doesn't impact the structural integrity.
