However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The Ibanez RG8527 RG J Custom is about as top spec as it gets. Made by an elite group of highly skilled luthiers in Ibanez's Japan workshop, the RG J Custom represents the best of the best. Which is why it's equipped with the most premium components you'll find on a guitar! Starting with its ultra-precise J Custom "Super Wizard" neck profile that's honed to a fine "Velvetouch" finish - it'll feel like you've been playing it for decades when you first pick it up!
That's joined by special J Custom fret edge treatments to provide a blissful fingering feel. String bends are fluid, string action is effortless, and the frets are built to last. And while you're firing out precision riffs, they'll be voiced in immaculate detail by a pair of DiMarzio PAF 7 humbuckers. Offering clean and clear lows, and rounded, warm highs, these will replicate every nuance of your playing. Completing the high-class array of appointments is the legendary Lo-Pro Edge Tremolo bridge, enabling all sorts of whammy bar mayhem to spice up solos without ever straying out of tune. For player that truly want the peak of playability, the RG8527 RG J Custom awaits…
Product Ref: 248105
The best Ibanez has to offer. J Custom models are produced by a small group of elite luthiers to ensure maximum quality. Quality that stretches all the way from the headstock to the end strap pin, but it's the playability that elevates J Custom guitars over everything else!
With a special J Custom neck profile and fret edge treatment, the RG8527 is extraordinarily effortless to play. The neck "Super Wizard" profile is super flat, super thin, and - most importantly - super smooth! It's honed down to a fine "Velvetouch" finish that insantly feels worn-in and ready for riffing. You'll be able to shoot around the scales at top speed!
And speaking of pacey playing, every note will be easy to action thanks to the J Custom fret edge treatment. This makes fretting comfortable thanks to their meticulously rounded profile, so you can string bend and solo in maximum comfort.
Expect fine control over your sound. The RG8527 RG J Custom is equipped with twin DiMarzio PAF 7 pickups that boast vintage style lower output, in addition to a versatile array of switching options. Serving up clear and clean lows matched with warm, rounded highs, you'll get high fidelity notes on both the lowest fret B-string and highest fret E-string! This will let your pick attack and dynamics dictate the tone.
In addition, the versatile array of switching options affords you tonnes of options for fitting into a mix. A 5-way switch allows you to have each pickup in isolation or running together as usual, but two "in between" tones you extra sonic character. Firstly, you can have the neck in parallel mode, which emulates two single coils running together for a thinner, twangier sound. Secondly, you can have a single coil from both the bridge and neck paired for a balanced tone.
Stay in tune all night. Hammer the whammy bar, divebomb to your heart's content, the J Custom RG's tuning won't budge. That's thanks to its legendary Lo-Pro Edge Tremolo bridge and locking nut, which team up to provide a smooth vibrato action and a rapid return-to-pitch.
That's backed up by Gotoh tuners to make string changes and tuning adjustments precise, quick and easy!
It's the real deal. Each J Custom model arrives with a certificate of authenticity to let you know it's the genuine article. After all, these are collectors' items and will hold their value long into the future! And to make sure it remains good-as-new, it arrives with a hard case to keep it protected, and a handy multi tool to keep it in top performing shape.
