Description
Part of the company’s Japanese-built Genesis Collection, the Ibanez RG565R marks a high-performance throwback RG based on a limited-production spot model from the late 1980s. This solidbody electric guitar boasts a basswood body with classic shred aerodynamics, along with an upgraded 5-piece Super Wizard neck and a fast-playing bound 24-fret rosewood fingerboard. Electronics-wise, the RG565R dishes out warm, articulate leads with truckloads of harmonic overtones, thanks to an IBZ V8 bridge humbucker, which is bolstered by a rail-style single-coil-sized humbucker in the neck position. The RG565R’s high-end complement of shred-sanctioned hardware includes an original Edge double-locking tremolo and Gotoh tuning machines. You also get plenty of spotlight-ready eye candy, such as shark tooth inlays, a high-gloss poly finish, and a head-turning reverse headstock. Ibanez aficionados searching for a souvenir from shred days past will find the RG565R absolutely spellbinding.
