Ibanez GRX40 Candy Apple — versatile GIO Series electric guitar with S-S-H pickup configuration

The renowned manufacturer Ibanez continues to expand its popular GIO Series, offering instruments that combine reliability, modern design, and comfortable playability.

We have already received the Ibanez GRX40 in Candy Apple, and this model immediately stands out thanks to its vibrant red finish and classic Ibanez styling.

The guitar combines a Poplar body, GRX maple neck, Jatoba fretboard, and a versatile S-S-H pickup configuration, making it suitable for a wide range of musical styles including pop, blues, rock, and alternative music.

🔵 ● Body — Poplar construction with balanced tone

Body: Poplar body

The guitar features a Poplar body, a tonewood commonly used in electric guitars due to its balanced tonal response.

Poplar provides:

• balanced frequency response

• thick and solid tone

• versatile sound character

This allows the instrument to perform equally well with both clean and distorted tones.

🟢 ● Neck — maple GRX neck for stability and playability

Neck: GRX Maple neck

The Maple neck provides excellent stability and a bright tonal character.

Maple is known for its strength and efficient transmission of string vibration. Combined with the GRX neck profile, the instrument allows comfortable playing for chords, riffs, and lead passages.

🟠 ● Jatoba fretboard — rich mids and clear highs

Fretboard: Jatoba

The Jatoba fretboard features a distinctive reddish-brown color and contributes to the tonal response of the guitar.

It is known for producing:

• rich midrange frequencies

• crisp high-end clarity

• strong articulation

The White Dot inlays provide a clean and classic look while making fretboard navigation easy.

🔺 ● S-S-H pickup configuration — versatile sound palette

Neck pickup: Infinity RS (Single Coil)
Middle pickup: Infinity RS (Single Coil)
Bridge pickup: Infinity R (Humbucker)

The guitar features a versatile S-S-H pickup configuration, combining the clarity of single coils with the power of a humbucker.

Infinity RS / Infinity R pickups deliver:

• accurate and tight tone

• excellent dynamics

• clear articulation even with heavy distortion

This configuration allows the guitar to cover a wide sonic range from bright clean tones to powerful rock sounds.

🟣 ● T106 tremolo bridge — precise adjustment

Bridge: T106 tremolo bridge

The T106 tremolo bridge features six independent saddles, allowing precise adjustment of both string height and intonation.

This design makes the guitar easy to set up while providing reliable tremolo performance.

⚫ ● Durable Mono-unit output jack

The guitar includes the Mono-unit output jack, constructed from a single piece of durable material.

This design helps prevent:

• unwanted jack movement

• loosening of the socket

• signal loss or cable disconnection

The result is long-term reliability and minimal maintenance.
