Description

Ibanez built the GRG131DXWH as part of the GRG sub-line within the broader RG Gio Series, positioning it as an entry-level double-humbucker solid-body electric. The model carried forward the core RG format in a White finish, targeting players seeking the RG platform's hardware layout and ergonomics at an accessible tier of the Ibanez range.

The guitar was constructed with a Poplar body and a Maple neck fitted with a bound Purpleheart fretboard bearing Red Sharktooth inlays. The fretboard runs to 24 Jumbo frets at a 400mm radius, with a nut width of 43mm tapering to 58mm at the 24th fret. Neck thickness measures 19.5mm at the first fret and 21.5mm at the twelfth. The 648mm (25.5") scale feeds into an F106 bridge set at 10.5mm string spacing. Pickup duties are handled by a pair of passive, ceramic Infinity R humbuckers — one at the neck, one at the bridge — with all hardware finished in Black. The guitar shipped factory-tuned to standard E and strung with a .010–.046 set.

Owners researching replacement parts should note that the F106 bridge accepts components dimensioned to its 10.5mm string spacing, and the bound Purpleheart fretboard's 400mmR and 43mm nut width are the governing figures for nut and fret work. For setup adjustments, refrets, or hardware sourcing, consult a qualified guitar technician or luthier familiar with the RG platform.

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
