Made in Japan. First built in 1987, the original Ibanez RG550 is revered by rock and metal guitarists. This Genesis Collection reissue takes its ancestor's classic design and adds a few modern touches. The original's 1-piece maple neck has been upgraded with a 5-piece laminated maple/walnut one. Its versatile HSH pickup configuration has been overhauled with modern V7 and V8 humbuckers. The RG550 features a comfortably contoured basswood body, resonating with a warm growl and enough midrange definition to cut through a dense mix. Twist, bend, and dive-bomb to your heart's content, thanks to an Edge tremolo. Loaded with aggressive styling (including eye-grabbing black hardware), the RG550 is a fast-playing, hard-rocking tone machine.

Features

  • Super Wizard 5pc Maple/Walnut neck provides extra-smooth playing
  • The RG can dial in any tone, from crystal clear to searing and nasty, thanks to its V7 neck pickup, S1 middle pickup and V8 bridge pickup combination
  • Maple fretboard provide crisp, bright highs and strong upper mids
  • Masterpiece Edge bridge offers exceptional tuning stability, precise intonation adjustment, and playing comfort
  • Gotoh® machine heads provide super precision, smooth feel, and minimal back lush
