Legendary

Gunthi 15.09.2018

Guys and Girls theres no sugar coated way to say this?
Money buys quality ( in items purchase terms) but once in a while theres an afordable hidden gem.
This is the one.
A reissue of the legendary 1987 RG550 and man o man is it woth it.
Japan made, very light and its weight is very well distributed, smooth slim neck, 2 hums and 1 single with 5 positions for versatile plays, stylish and well equiped.
This is a must have, so in conclusion its better to save and buy a more expensive guitar like this one( that i so recommend) than to rush buy just to have issues later and wish have bought another one.
Theres no case but Thomann has many to choose from.
10/10

It’s the best guitar I’ve played in my life

DanielPicon 07.03.2022

This is electric guitar #6 in my collection (1st Ibanez). So far the best and my favourite one when it comes to looks and playability, so pretty much the full package.

The guitar was perfectly set up from the get go, surprisingly it was almost perfectly in tune even after that long trip from Germany to Estonia.

The neck is crazy thin, the frets’ edges were properly smoothened out, no sharpness, just smoothness.

The main reasons why I bought this instrument were:

I wanted a super Strat styled guitar but with a floating tremolo system.
I was interested in a super thin neck for fast playing
Curious about HSH pick-up configuration
Wanted a nice and vibrant color
Interested in knowing more about the made in japan quality

It delivered on all these points, I’m very happy with this purchase.

The Best guitar for the Price

C.G. br 26.05.2022

Cleans are amazing, the quality of this guitar made in Japan by the same team that does the Prestige models is just insane. Zero flaws. This reissue of the 80's guitar with some better specs now and better tech is just perfect.

Nothing more or less than what you could expect from MIJ Ibanez.
