The RG1120PBZ is an RG series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2020. It was made in Indonesia as part of the mid-tier Premium line.

The RG1120PBZ features an American basswood body with a 7mm thick poplar burl top bolted to an eleven piece maple, walnut and purpleheart Wizard neck with an ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo EVO gold frets, pearloid dot position markers, and luminescent side dots. Other components include a pair of DiMarzio Fusion Edge humbucking pickups with brushed nickel covers, an Edge Pro II double locking tremolo bridge with a removable ZPS3Fe tuning stabilizer, a locking nut and Gotoh tuning machines.

The controls include an "Alter" switch which enables a "power tap" of the pickups to offer greater tonal variety. This arrangement is referred to as the dynaMIX-10 system and is inherited from the AZ series.

For 2021 the neck was changed to an eleven piece maple, walnut and bubinga construction.

The RG1121PB is a similar model with a fixed bridge.

The RG1120PBZ was discontinued after 2021.
