Ibanez RG550 Prestige – Desert Sun Yellow
The Ibanez RG550 Prestige in Desert Sun Yellow is a bold throwback to the golden age of shred, reimagined with modern performance and made-in-Japan craftsmanship. Part of the Genesis Collection, this model revives the iconic 1987 RG blueprint with updated precision and unmistakable attitude.
Built for serious players, the RG550 features the lightning-fast Super Wizard 5-piece Maple/Walnut neck—ultra-thin, ultra-stable, and perfect for high-speed runs and complex riffs. The maple fretboard adds brightness and snap, while jumbo frets deliver effortless bends and articulation.
The H-S-H pickup configuration is loaded with Ibanez V7 (neck), S1 (middle), and V8 (bridge) pickups, covering everything from glassy cleans to saturated leads. With the Edge locking tremolo, you can dive, squeal, and return to pitch with total confidence.
Finished in eye-catching Desert Sun Yellow with black hardware, this guitar is a statement on stage and in the studio.
