The Story

RG550 Road Flare Red 1987

Who doesn't love an original RG? This is a 1987 Ibanez RG550 in Road Flare Red, which was recently reintroduced in the Genesis Series, but it's really cool to see an original come in! The guitar has a basswood body with a Wizard profile maple neck, S-1 single coils with a swapped-out Seymour Duncan Distortion with the older "DDJ" label, and an Edge tremolo. The guitar has some neck pocket checking and wear to the fretboard, nothing extensive to affect the feel or tone. It includes the original hardshell case.

Includes: Hardshell Case
