Description: Ibanez Genesis Collection RG550 -Black- Made In Japan Description Now! We pay the split interest fee! !This does not apply to installment payments.The long-awaited return of the original RG!!Of course it's MadeInJapan, the same factory as the initial one!!In 1987, a model completely different from previous Ibanez guitar shapes debuted, and the model RG was born, sharing the body shape with Steve Vai's signature model JEM, who established himself as a super guitarist in the DLR band at the time!!Among them, the RG550 has become particularly popular, with its pickguard-mounted HSH array pickup, EDGE tremolo, and maple fingerboard. These images overlapped with JEM and established it as a model representing Ibanez.At that time, the metal scene was at its peak for technical guitarists, and a guitar that was fast and could play difficult phrases with ease was in demand.With its ultra-thin neck shape, double locking tremolo, and jumbo frets, the RG was the perfect gear for these needs. I did.Although it has been reprinted several times, it has not been officially sold in Japan since 2020, but in 2024, it has been reprinted with almost the same appearance and has been updated to suit the times.It is still the latest version. It reigns as a guitar that is comparable to other models.The body uses basswood with a flat tone, making it possible to make the most of the sound creation by replacing pickups, amplifiers, and effectors.The original used 1 pc. of Maple for the neck, but this model uses 5 pc. of Maple Walnut and has a volute head for much greater strength, making it sturdy even with the ultra-thin SuperWizard neck shape. The strength is ensured. The Maple fingerboard has excellent response and plays well even at high speeds. The frets are jumbo type and can be played with a light touch. The joint uses TiltJoint, which is inherited from the early RG, and has a large footprint with the body, resulting in a thick sound.The pickup has an Ibanez original HSH structure with a V7 center on the front and a V8 on the S1 rear, and the output is slightly smaller than the early V1-S1-V2, making it a pickup with more delicate expressive power.The bridge is equipped with the familiar double locking tremolo EDGE, which is a proven tremolo used by many top artists including Steve Vai and Joe Satriani!The controls are 1 volume, 1 tone, and a 5-way pickup selector, and in the halftone position, the humbucker side is a single coil tap, which is simple but can cover most of the sounds you need.A book that explains why RG has been a bestseller for over 30 years since its birth!BodyBodytype:SolidbodyBody material: BasswoodNeckjoint:TiltJointBridge: Edgetremolo (10.8mm string spacing)Pickguard:BlackKnobstyle:Plastictophat(black)Hardwarecolor:BlackNeckNecktype:SuperWizardNeckmaterial:5-piecemaple walnutScale length:648mm 25½"Fingerboard material:MapleFingerboard inlays:BlackdotFrets:24nickelsilverNut:Top-LokIII(43mm)Machineheads:GotohSG381ElectronicsPickup configuration:HSHBridgepickup:IbanezV8(H)Middle pickup:Ibanez S1(S)Neck pickup:Ibanez V7(H)Controls:Mastervolume mastertone 5-wayleverpickupselectorOutputjack:¼"stereobarrel(sidemounted)Weight:3.77kgDelivered at our expense (excluding some areas)(Color blackYear of manufacture: 2024pickup passivePickup configuration HSHNumber of frets: 24 fretsneck scale longWeight 3.77kgBody material basswoodTremolo lock typeFingerboard material mapleNeck joint detachable bolt-onNeck material mapleAccessories soft case, ** This product is brand new item.
