For years the RG Series has been one of the most recognisable lines in the Ibanez arsenal, delivering hard rockin' metal machines with precision, speed and power. The new Ibanez RG550 Genesis Collection is something pretty special from this highly regarded line.

With a lightweight Basswood body, finished in Black, you not only get crisp looks but rich, tight, natural tone. The ergonomic body shape feels smooth, well balanced and poised for action.

A 5 piece Maple/Walnut Super Wizard neck is adorned with a Maple fingerboard with black dot inlays. It's designed for speed and precision, perfect for today's metal players.

With a rich history of crushing tones and sweeping solos to live up to, the RG550 is loaded with a trio of pickups. In the traditional HSH configuration, the V7/S1/V8 combine to deliver an insane dynamic range and note definition. With unrivalled clarity and power, you can unleash crushing riffs and soaring solos, whatever you need, it can handle it!

With its powerhouse specs and brutal aesthetics, the Ibanez RG550 is one cool cat!
