This is a 2024 Model that The TGF Chop Shop wanted to send back to the glam rock days of 1987! The Desert Sun Yellow finish was a great platform to work off of. To add that killer 80's glam vibe we added a custom pink sparkle pickguard, florescent green knobs, pickup switch cap and a USA made Planet Tone Elite Pro II Pickup with a matching green cover in the middle position. The new single coil pickup is much warmer and balanced than the stock S1. The Stock Knobs, Pickup, and Pickguard will be included in the sale. This Ships with the original box and Ibanez gig bag. Why look like the rest of the RG550 players when you can rock a custom one off for the same price?
This guitar will turn heads and get all the attention you ever wanted plus it will sound and play amazing!!
Stock Specs:
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.
Incredibly fast Super Wizard neck
Back in 1987, the original RG550 featured a 1-piece maple Wizard neck. This reissue takes that design to the next level with a 5-piece maple/walnut Super Wizard neck. You'll be able to execute lightning-fast runs, arpeggios, and hammer-ons with ease. Capping the Super Wizard neck is a 24-fret maple fingerboard, loaded with jumbo frets that are perfect for big note bends. Beyond that, the RG550 features a classic-style tilt neck joint with a stamped metal plate rather than the sculpted All Access neck joint found on most modern RGs. If you crave the feel of a classic RG, you'll love the RG550.
