MGR/Jimi « Ibanez RG550 »
Published on 01/07/04 at 15:00Bought it at a second hand guitar shop in my town (Big Deal Shop) for £285 (approx $520). I got it because I was fed up with my old guitar and wanted something better lookin and something with a locking trem.
everything - this guitar is awesome! Plays like a dream. The wuper wizard neck is wafer thin and very comfortable on the hand. The trem can take one hell of a beatin before going out of tune and even then it ain't by much. The pickups are clear and crisp and the overall tone of the guitar is superb. This guitar can really handle all styles of music.
Not much, except that the RG550 is a little on the heavy side for me anyway which makes it a bit harder to thrust around quite as violently as Vai. Appart from that this guitar is all good.
The quality of this guitar is well above average. Only one small negative point: the finash is easily damaged but when it plays this good, who gives a F**K?!
Dude this guitar rocks!!!
