Shred Like a Pro, with an RG Prestige

The Ibanez RG Prestige RG3550MZ is a member of Ibanez's Prestige Series - putting it in the upper echelon of Ibanez's RG offerings. You get a lightweight, sustaining basswood body that's primed for players with attitude, along with a fast-playing 5-piece maple/walnut Super Wizard HP neck with a maple fingerboard. The RG3550MZ also lets you turn up the heat with its 3-pickup configuration. It sports a H-S-H pickup system - two hot Dimarzio humbuckers, with a Dimarzio single-coil in the middle. The Ibanez RG3550MZ is ready to rip it up when you are.

Ibanez's RG Prestige Series: it starts with excellent tonewoods and components
The Ibanez RG Prestige range is filled with top instruments - all featuring the famous RG body style, with excellent tonewoods and components throughout. The RG3550MZ also gives you a fast-playing 5-piece maple/walnut Super Wizard Prestige neck that's primed for metal shredding.

Your fingers will fly on this super-fast Super Wizard HP neck
One of Ibanez's fastest necks to date, the 3-piece maple Super Wizard HP neck on the RG3550MZ is an absolute pleasure to play. This slim and super-comfortable neck lets you pull off lighting-fast runs and arpeggios with ease, but still gives you the substance you need for fretting chords when you need to. From the first time you put your hands on the RG3550MZ's Super Wizard HP neck, you'll know you've got a guitar that was built with performance in mind.

Edge Zero II tremolo bridge gives you solid performance and stability
The RG3550MZ's Edge Zero II bridge with Zero Point System was designed by Ibanez to give you the fast tremolo response and snap you need to pull off sharp bends and flutters. The extreme stability of this knife-edge-style trem's stud lock function is also one of the many reasons its a favorite among many of today's top shredders. If you're looking for a guitar that can stand up to long playing sessions without losing its tuning, you're going to adore the RG3550MZ!

I am very happy with the product and service I received. I have yet to experience such personalized service from audio/music companies in my hometown. I will certainly make more purchases from Sweetwater again. If you have the product I need, I will purchase it from Sweetwater. The service is exceptional. I have never been treated with such thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly service from any of the music companies located in Saint Louis, MO.
