Ibanez Electric Guitar GIO Transparent Indigo Black GRGR221FA-TDK
£258.99 Inc. Vat
RG feel built for speed
The GRGR221FA is designed for fast, controlled playing and a direct, responsive feel. As a GIO model, it brings Ibanez quality and performance into a more affordable package, while still aiming for reliable day-to-day playability. The okoume body gives a bright, solid base that keeps riffs tight and chords clear, even with heavier gain. Up top, the flamed maple art grain finish adds a striking look while keeping the guitar comfortable for longer sessions. It suits modern heavy tones, but stays friendly for learning parts and everyday practice.
Roasted maple neck stability
Its roasted maple neck is heat-treated to improve stability, durability and resistance to moisture and temperature changes, which helps the guitar feel consistent wherever you play. The satin finish keeps it quick in the hand, making position shifts feel smooth and effortless. With a 25.5″ scale length, it offers familiar string tension that supports tight rhythm work and confident bends, making it a dependable choice for players building speed, accuracy and control.
Purpleheart board and medium frets
A bound purpleheart fretboard adds a crisp edge to the attack and a clear, focused character that suits high-gain clarity. Medium frets help accuracy for both chords and single-note lines, giving you a comfortable balance between easy fretting and controlled bends. The reversed black sharktooth inlays make position markers easy to spot at a glance, and the overall feel encourages clean technique, whether you’re learning new shapes or tightening up fast alternate-picked passages.
The IBZ-6 humbuckers are voiced to improve tonal clarity, keeping notes defined for palm-muted riffs, open chords and lead lines. A 5-way lever switch expands usable sounds without complicating the controls, paired with a simple 1 volume and 1 tone layout for quick adjustments. The F106 hardtail bridge enriches sustain and makes setup practical, with independent string height adjustment for each saddle. Black hardware and Ibanez machine heads complete a no-fuss spec that’s easy to maintain.

Ibanez Electric Guitar GIO Aqua Burst GRGR221PA-AQB
Straight from the top. The GRGR221PA GIO comes equipped with a pair of blistering, IBZ-6 pickups. Based on the IBZ pickup sets found in Ibanez's top-of-the-range models, these high-powered humbuckers provide all the grunt you need for a crushing metal tone, while retaining enough clarity and definition to let every note of every chord shine through.
The bridge model offers a pleasing mid-range push that's just crying out for crunchy, distorted chords. The neck unit, however, gives a rounder, fuller tone with a beefy low end and twinkling treble. This is ideal for soft clean tones, or creamy solos. Switching between the two couldn't be easier, with a three-way blade switch that also offers a killer combined sound at the middle position - the best of both worlds.
