Details
The Ibanez RG2550Z Prestige HSH Electric Guitar in White Pearl Metallic is a delightful guitar that rewards speed and precision with an exquisite playing feel that is the stuff dreams are made of. Equipped with a powerful trio of U.S.-made DiMarzio pickups, it is as versatile as it is beautiful.
Since its release over 30 years ago, the RG body shape has been a favourite amongst metallers, shredders, and virtuosos, who need an instrument that feels solid and reassuring, yet lightweight and free.
The body is crafted from basswood, a tonally neutral wood that allows the pickups to soar, and delivers a robust sustain that ensures your tone will gallop. Finished in a sophisticated White Pearl Metallic paintjob, the RG2550Z is perfect for stealing the limelight on stage.
Neck
As with all Ibanez guitars, the neck has been crafted with delicate care and precision to ensure it is as smooth, fast and easy to play as possible. The 5-piece maple/walnut neck is tonally bright - complementing the rich lower tones produced by the body -, with articulation infused into each and every note across the luxurious rosewood fingerboard. The extra-long scale Wizard HP neck profile ensures an enduring sustain, as well as a super slim playing platform to elegantly perform fretboard gymnastics on. The RG2550Z benefits from the Prestige Fret-Edge Treatment, guaranteeing smooth transitions along the neck as you play.
Electronics
In order to deliver the greatest breadth of tonal diversity, Ibanez has fitted this Prestige model with three outstanding US-made DiMarzio pickups. In the neck position is the Air Norton passive humbucker, in the middle is a True Velvet passive single-coil, and in the bridge is The Tone Zone passive humbucker. This trio equips you with everything you need to perform subtle clean licks to taking to the heavens.
Control over the pickups comes in the form of a 5-way pickup selector switch to access each pickup individually, or combining the inner coil of the neck or bridge pickup with the middle. The master volume and master tone controls do the rest, so all you need to do is rock out.
Hardware
The Edge-Zero tremolo bridge with Zero Point System 3, allows you to dive-bomb and wail to your heart's content. No matter how aggressive or frenetic your style, the highly responsive trem system will ensure that your strings retain their tuning without any fuss. Minor adjustments can be made on the fly and the tension of the whammy bar can be modified to suit your playing style. The matching headstock and cosmo black hardware complete the high quality finish.
Your new Ibanez RG2550Z Prestige HSH Electric Guitar in White Pearl Metallic, comes with its very own hardshell case, perfect for storing it safely at home or in the studio, and transporting to gigs.
