The RGA72QM is an RGA series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2010.

The RGA72QM features a mahogany body with an arched quilted maple top mated to a titanium-reinforced set-in maple neck with a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard with shark fin/ wave position markers. Components include dual Ibanez LZ active humbucking pickups and a fixed bridge. A special feature is the active EQ switch which activates a mid-cut.

The RGA72TQMZ is a similar model with a double locking tremolo bridge. A more affordable model is the RGA42FM with a bolt-on neck and flamed maple top.

This RGA72QM was replaced for 2011 by a new model with several changes including a revised body, new pickups and neck and different fretboard inlay.
