Ibanez Genesis Collection RG550 Electric Guitar - Desert Sun Yellow

Originally unveiled in 1987, the Ibanez RG550 has since been adored by rock and metal guitarists worldwide. This Genesis Collection reissue borrows it's forefather's classic design and adds a few modern refinements. While the original model employed a 1-piece Maple neck, this reissue features a 5-piece laminated Maple/Walnut neck instead and the flexible HSH pickup configuration has been replaced with modern V7 and V8 humbuckers. It's expertly contoured Basswood body resonates with a warm growl and pronounced mids to cut right through the mix, and is incredibly comfortable to play. Thanks to the Edge Locking Tremolo system, you can twist, bend, and dive-bomb your way through the night, and packed with sophisticated style, the RG550 is an unapologetically fast, and outlandishly aggressive tone machine.
