Ibanez Genesis RG550 WHF (Japan) - white flat
As comfortable as it is versatile (though with a clear leaning toward the rock/metal genre), the IBANEZ Genesis Japan RG550 WHF solid body electric guitar continues the modern/traditional hybrid style that made the RG series a success (itself inspired by the Super-Strats of the 1980s).
It’s sure to delight shredders looking for a high-quality (Japanese-made!), versatile instrument with excellent ergonomics.
The RG550’s construction features a basswood body, a bolt-on neck made of five pieces of maple and walnut, and a maple fingerboard (24 frets, jumbo frets, 25.5" scale). the benchmark acoustic platform for thick, punchy lows, rich mids, and crystal-clear highs.
The Ibanez HSH pickup configuration (AlNiCo magnets for the single-coil pickup, ceramic magnets for the humbucking pickups) allows you to switch from crystal-clear tones perfect for arpeggios to subtle crunch, all the way to raging, crisp and responsive.
The Ibanez Edge floating double-locking vibrato has proven itself in terms of expressiveness and reliability.
