Ibanez RG550-DY electric guitar with fast RG playability
The Ibanez RG550-DY looks back to the glory days of 80s shred while still matching what many modern guitarists want. Its sharp contours, striking Desert Sun Yellow finish and very fast playability make this electric guitar a clear statement on stage.
The basswood body keeps the weight light and delivers a powerful, balanced tone. Combined with the maple fingerboard and 24 jumbo frets, the RG550-DY feels direct and quick, which works well for technical playing, tight riffs and effortless solos.
Super Wizard neck, HSH pickups and Edge tremolo
The 5-piece Super Wizard neck in maple and walnut is extremely thin and fast. You notice that right away during quick position changes, complex runs and shred playing across all 24 frets. At Magna Music, you can also get personal advice from musicians who know this kind of performance-focused guitar.
With its HSH configuration of V7 in the neck, S1 in the middle and V8 at the bridge, you get a versatile sound ranging from warm cleans to brutal high-gain tones. The Edge tremolo is known for its stability, so you can use dive bombs and vibrato without tuning problems.
Classic RG style in Desert Sun Yellow
The Desert Sun Yellow finish is a clear nod to the original RG models and gives this Ibanez a bold retro look. If you are looking for an RG guitar with classic styling, modern playability and a wide tonal range, the RG550-DY is a strong choice for stage work and technical guitar playing.
