For Sale: White 1989 Ibanez RG550 in good condition, $270 obo. I've upgraded the pickups with Ibanez IBZ USA Pickups which are basically dimarzio pickups with the Ibanez name on them. They sound awesome. The F2 in the bridge is very hot and the guitar also features a C2 single coil in the middle and another IBZ USA pickup in the neck position. These pickups are from the same time period and were featured on Ibanez's top end gutiars like the RG770 and RG770DX. The guitar also features the super stable EDGE Locking Tremolo (With the Bar) which stays in tune through dives and pulls. It also features the flat,thin and fast original Wizard neck with gotoh tuners. The guitar does have the usual wear for an Ibanez of this age as I'll point out. It has a small crack behind the locking nut on the back of the neck which is very common on these thin ibanez wizard necks. The crack does not effect the playabilty, tone, or stability of the guitar at all. It plays super easy, and stays right in tune. It also has a few necks and dings around the input jack and on the edge of the body, but nothing really obvious. The dings and nicks were touched up with the closest matching white I could find. Besides a few dings its a great guitar and still looks and plays great. The fretboard was recently cleaned and the frets polished and its setup with the action low. GO HERE FOR PICS AND INFO:
