Soundwise still much closer in the 2/4 positions to a real single coil strat sound like my PRS models or other split pickups. String action stamp de luxe as usual, jumbo frets perfectly dressed. The speed solos almost roll over, upwards there are no limits - but as I said, also the Rock'n'Roll Blues fraction will be happy with the RG550. However, perhaps not guitarists who prefer baseball bat-thick necks, that would possibly be the only.
An absolutely high quality (J.CRAFT Japan) Ibanez at a very fair price. And will last a very long time, if you treat it reasonably well - the workhorse, as you are used to for 30 years :-) And finally I have it in desert yellow, which has already lured me back then (but ultimately became "only" white).
Delivery from Kirstein very fast and reliable, thank you!
Product as described!
I can only recommend kirsten shop!
Diese Gitarre fühlt sich super schnell an, mit einem Hals der so smooth ist, dass man ihn nicht mehr aus der Hand geben will.
Die 5 Pickup positionen geben eine breite vielfalt an sounds, ob Metal, Blues oder Funk, alles klappt gut. Sollte man aber einen ganz besonderen sound suchen für Metal, dann lohnt es sich vielleicht eine gitarre mit EMGs oder FIshman Fluence zu holen (habe ich in meiner ESP) aber die Pickups der Ibanez sind trotzdem im High Gain bereich gut aufgehoben und ich werde sie vorerst nicht wechseln.
Die Edge Brücke ist ein Traum, super Stimmstabil und macht ein schönes flimmern wenn man sie Anstupst.
Alles in einem, klare Kauf Empfehlung für wer eine Ibanez "Prestige" für den halben Preis haben will ;)
