Description

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.

Features
  • Super Wizard 5pc Maple/Walnut Neck - Delivers an incredibly smooth and comfortable playing experience.
  • V7/S1/V8 Pickups - From crystal clear, to blistering distortion - thanks to the RG550's V7 neck pickup, S1 middle pickup, and V8 bridge pickup, this guitar can handle any tone.
  • Maple Fretboard - Providing crisp, brilliant highs with a strong and defined upper midrange.
  • Edge Tremolo Bridge - This masterpiece bridge delivers outstanding tuning stability, precise intonation adjustment, and playing comfort.
  • Gotoh Machine Heads - Smooth tuning performance that is precise and reliable, with a sleek design.
