DISC Ibanez Prestige RG2550Z Electric Guitar, Gal. Black

Full Description

The RG is one of the most recognizable and distinctive guitars in the Ibanez line. Forged in the 80's, this high-performance machine was built with speed and strength in mind. Used back then by the likes of Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, this series of guitars became synonymous with guitarist?s seeking to push the boundaries of various genres of music. Whether using a locking tremolo with a sharp action knife edge or a hard tail bridge, the RG is a precision instrument. Still a firm favourite today the RG is still at the forefront of guitar technology.

Over the past 30 years, Ibanez have always been at the forefront of developing the right tools for players pushing the boundaries of music. For decades, Ibanez designers and luthiers have been the embodiment of this ideology, pushing their skills to the edge of imagination, consistently creating some of the most dynamic instruments ever.

Wizard HP Neck

Refined fast Prestige Wizard neck offers better grip, feel and tone - 18mm width at 1st fret and 20mm at the 12th.

Neck Shape

Each series of Prestige features the best suited neck shape for the player's tastes.

Edge-Zero Tremolo

The Edge-Zero has a sharp knife-edge for extremely accurate tremolo playing. This tremolo also uses Ibanez innovations to keep string action constant and the bridge surface smooth. The specially designed arm socket prevents unnecessary wobble from the arm while providing full control over the arm's torque.

ZPS3 Zero Point System

The ZPS3 is the next stage of zero point systems. Made of lightweight Duralumin, the addition of two outer springs makes the guitar easier to tune and provides much greater tuning stability. In fact, the other strings will stay in tune even if you break a string. If you prefer a full floating tremolo setup, simply remove the stop bar.

Collet Knob

Designed for great looks and engineered to avoid the risk of coming off while you're playing. The non-slip functionality gives this collet knob accurate axis rotation and control for any player.

Barless Top-Lok

The Barless Top-Lok eliminates the need for a retainer bar to maintain string tension. Through its simple design, it holds the correct angle for the strings without one. The metal-injection molding process means that all the edges remain smooth, so you won't hurt your hands.
