It looks awesome! The fretboard looks almost like rosewood

Loved this and your RG550 video man I hope to see another in this style for them amazing Jems in the background also is that a Paul Gilbert model too?

21:55 you said that to have 87 specs they have to make a neck without the scarf joint. I think you meant WITH a scarf joint.

Even back then you were kickin' ass!

Do you usually set your guitar's action to 1mm?

...also stop whinging so much man, you almost sound like a woman

You need a roller nut...no matter what you'll do, it will never be as good as a Floyd type tremolo

Between Dimarzio Super 2 and Super 3. Which you'd recommend for the RG550 ? Or what Dimarzios would be the originals in the RG 550 ? Tyvm

Wizard is way better than the thicker Jem neck, and when they crack, they're easy to fix.

late 90s and early 2000s with the big skunk stripes are my favorites.

Though they come out with stainless steel frets

What are they like to bend. With a flat neck. 9.5 7.25 radius way more easy to bend and feel u not pushing against all the strings. U bending up & over

RG person doesn't really feel AZ ?

Holy shit bro, I know this is an old video, but I agree with you on everything you said. I have a 2204N, and even with my bridge decked, I dare not caress that bridge even a little bit. The neck heel bump is all the way up to 15 frets, making it painful to play anything over 17 frets. And the lower horn gets in the way every time. That being said, I don’t know why my AZ has better fret ends than my RG and it’s very light…

I just picked up a 2008 370dxl and the neck binding has cracks in it as well. Other than that it’s mint. 220 I think it was a steal 🤘🏼

Damn I didn't think I'd like it but I really do. My ibanez came with the fishmann fluence so idt I can just pop one of these in but considering it for my old one.

Bro, can you tell the story of J Custom? or UV series that been used by metal genre

Won't work with a pedal board.

Does these guitar have stainless steel frets?

Dude your amazing I love the way you play that guitar 👍👍👍👍

It doesn't have the neck joint that the Jem has. It is a cheap, very thick and hard to get to the upper frets. I had an original 570 and it was awesome. This guitar, because of the neck joint sucks.

having massive tuning issues with my brand new az prestige as well. Also the trem arm makes a horrible squeaking noise whenever i move it. Definitely considering returning it and getting my money back

I had 2 of those and checked with 2 luthiers, the action is so high after 11frets and no matter what they cannot lower it to my liking in a similar way of Jackson or RGs. Ruins it for me

Thanks for very informative video!

AZ2402 Grey Metallic

Great video

Good review, I was thinking of purchasing this very guitar. Think I'll pass.

Do they stay in tune well when you play with them live?

I can tell you collect or have the same style and exact guitars i do!👽🎸

Beautiful head and cab! But be careful the black feet of the head will ink on the white tolex of cab.

ALL digital devices that transfer audio compress the signal. It is the only way possible to send a dependable signal audio situation. Everything done to create the best signal has been done by the Smartphone industry. In short literally billions spent. I find it humorous that for example todays demo showed that the cable gave the sound a more open sound and the wireless sound was tight and defined. The same guy that gets angry about not having the open sound is often the first guy to put on his compressor to tighten the sound when he plays clean, LOL.

lol nailed the intro man, thats the RG sound in the intro, as identifiable as a Les Paul or Strat

I lament over the days when Ibanez had RGs with basswood bodies, rosewood fretboard and solid color finishes. All the entry level, mid and high level RGs were pretty much the same except for pickups and bridges and neck profiles. I find myself looking at a road flare red RG550 more and more with the current state of the RG line.

Have you checked that all the nuts and screws are tight on the guitar? On my AZs I had to tighten almost every screw and nut on the guitar. I have changed the nut to TusQ and its much better than bone for tuning stability. I also think that everytime you tune a string you need to go through every string again and make sure all strings are in tune and not like you did in the video only tuning one string. Then at the end of the day there is a reason some guitars have a locking tuning system, the AZs are not ment to be used doing hard dive bombs and slacking the strings completely, its ment to be used with some vibrato from the trem arm.

AZs are not intended to have a low action as on the other models like RG or S series. The Radius of the neck is 305 instead of 400 mm so when you bend a string with a low action the string will buzz or choke because of the radius.

Can I run both channels on the 840/50 at the same time?

😂😂🤘🤘

I'd love to own one of these, but the huge heel block is a showstopper to me... I understand this is a reissue, but having AANJ would've made it perfect for my tastes.

This is awesome #spitonthatthang

absolutely badasses

Awesome shredding... got a like and subscribe from me bro!

Have a ‘23 neon purple genesis, it’s a great guitar! ,I had an ‘87 rg550 that I got used in 1990 for $150!! It was supposed to be red,but that guitar was pink and I sold it around ‘98., and scored a blue rg450, I think it was..it had the lo-trs trem. I tried to like other brands, but Ibanez always wins with me., I have 2 rgt42’s from 2002 - ‘05. , mik, those earlier neck through rg’s were built great, but the bridges and pickups are lacking, project time finally? Not sure, I’m picking up a prestige rg5120 , frozen ocean, tomorrow afternoon!!

This glorious collab just made my mullet grow 3x longer and brought me back to the future🤘

Did you try and plug it into a Ibanez S body

Could this charge a cell phone bua USB port?

Just picked up a 97 RG-570 in Purple Neon, all original hardware and pickups! I am gonna restore it and sell it. I paid 25 bucks for it!!

Intro was PERFECT!!
