Ibanez RG550-GRF Genesis Gray Metallic Flat

Ibanez Genesis RG RG550 For Precise Metal Performance!

The Ibanez Genesis RG RG550 is a Japanese electric guitar built for fast riffs, precise leads and powerful tones across rock, metal, fusion and modern shred. With a Super Wizard neck, basswood body, maple fretboard, HSH pickup configuration and Edge tremolo, it blends classic RG feel with uncompromising control.

RG DNA With Japanese Craftsmanship

The RG is one of the most influential electric guitars in Ibanez’s lineup, embodying speed, punch and ergonomic playability for decades. The Genesis Collection revisits the original traits of this lineage and couples them with precise Japanese workmanship. The result is an electric guitar that feels direct, stable and highly responsive. The basswood body provides a balanced foundation with clear attack, defined mids and enough low-end to support modern high-gain tones.

Super Wizard Neck For Maximum Control

The five-piece neck made of maple and walnut is designed for fast, controlled playing. The Super Wizard profile, with its very slim thickness, supports fluid position changes, fast runs and complex chord shapes. The maple fretboard delivers direct response and clear articulation, while the flat 430 mm (16.9") fretboard radius favors bends, legato techniques and precise soloing. 24 jumbo frets give you the full range for modern lead work and technical playing styles.

Flexible HSH Switching

Equipped with a V7 neck humbucker, an S1 single coil in the middle position and a V8 bridge humbucker, the guitar offers a versatile HSH setup. The neck pickup delivers singing leads and full cleans, the middle single coil adds transparent in-between tones, and the bridge humbucker provides tight riffs with clear attack. Use the volume, tone and 5-way switch to quickly dial in sounds — from articulated clean passages to a thick distortion wall.

Edge Tremolo And Stable Hardware

The Edge tremolo is a proven locking tremolo system for expressive vibrato, divebombs and precise pitch effects. Together with the locking nut and Gotoh tuners, tuning remains controllable even under heavy tremolo use. The 25.5" scale delivers familiar tension and clear string separation, while the 10.8 mm string spacing supports a precise picking feel. That makes the RG550 ideal for players seeking a fast, direct and professionally tuned instrument for stage, studio and serious practice.
