yeah, it's pretty unique, vintage specs and modern capabilities

This is translated from other language)

@@Mich._.Sz8 thanks!🍻

@@elaaron1236 sunburst is a little bit outdated , but only in terms of color/look, but you can play almost everything on it

Thanks🍻

this is the mod of the previous owner, he put the new H-H plate, but you can put the H-H to the H-S-H plate and put some dummy single cover in the center

Thanks, man!🤟

@@DimKAt21 🤩🤘🏼💥

Hey, thanks for the advice! I thought that my main firm with weak glue will be used on every step, so I was unready for the changes😵‍💫, cutting machine is too far, at least for now😄 but it’s awesome solution

the main thing on the product shots is 120cm octobox on whatever led spot light, camera - z cam e2 (like blackmagic pocket 4k)

@@worknrolla I see. Thanks for the info.

the owner told me, that he changed the hole setup for baritone strings and tuning, and he said that feel became much better (for him)

@@worknrolla But Fender 24-100 Gauge strings are a huge improvement over the 24-84 gauge strings

@@RockStarOscarStern634 yeah, but depends on tuning, if you want go higher, as that man with baritone tuning - these will kill you))

@@worknrolla I use 24-100 Gauge strings for E-e Octave Down Tuning

@@RockStarOscarStern634 for this tuning it's a cool set, no doubt💥

Thanks 😊 about the joint and complains..when I see guys are doing crazy sweep/shred things on Les Paul’s or 9” fretboards on strats..joint is the last thing they’re thinking about)

very complex review, thanks) I have some troubles, too and I used post EQ a lot in this test to cut some low frequences..and yeah, you need to suffer and learn how to play on this, but it's realy fun thing, for some experiments..maybe with delay, fuzz..for some ambient or crazy sounding low tones, something like this..and yeah, 0-0-0-0-0-0 is also sounds good))

Hi, you need to do it with strings (and tune them), so you can compensate the tention by springs on the back and place the tremolo in the right position (floyd - parallel to the body, egde trems - the knife shoud be parallel to the body)

@@diogenesstudent5585 I try to improve my English and hate my accent/stupid mistakes, so, great thanks for the comment!))

Almost, almost))

@@Ninuzzo hi, this mod was done by previous owner, but I think it’s 3rd party pickguard from eBay/amazon for 6 string RG guitars

@@worknrolla Alright thank you! looks great though!

@@HarryBall-fw7pv thanks! Dimarzio is my choice, too, but I bought the guitar with this mod already) at first I was a little bit skeptical, but it’s great

I bought it specificaly for the project, but I changed the plans and I will do this with my rg1527, 1st part video with sketch and plans is on this channel..yeah color is dope

Hey, thanks, man! Взаимно)

thanks! it has certain shredding feel, but fat riffs and rhythm can be done 200%, I swear)

maybe it's all about original rg550 from 90s, cause you got 5 piece neck in the reissued model (genesis). And this particular guitar is used about 2 years in Poland with heating in winters/humidity variations, etc. Everything is clear (and I don't hear any complains about reissued rg550/rg565)

It’s installed by the previous owner, but I guess it’s direct

@@worknrolla could you please check and lmk if possible?

@@akhandpratapsingh369 checked. it's 100% direct)

@@worknrolla thanks a lot! 🍻

Thanks)

@@janolesen8938 red flare is wild color, awesome guitar! about the battery plate - cool innovative solution for superstrats, I’m glad, that previous owner installed it)

@@worknrolla funny thing, it was the only color available at the time. And I have a mountain bike in the exactly same color, which was also the only available color….🤔😂🎸

@@janolesen8938 this is the destiny! I love the rg550 in purple and in that red flare (not shure which one I like more). Purple is calm, but red flare is "look at me, I'm created to kill and bring you 80s"...and it can match your Ferrari, in case you have it) but mountain bike works, too)

@@kkrsnn5632 dopiero zaczynam nim być)

same experience..when you grab it into your hands it just plays itself, killer guitar

@@worknrolla it’s that ultra thin neck and super flat radius!

@@zyxwfish yeah + setup, when strings are close to the neck, awesome tremolo and japan quality/good materials

Hey, thanks, man!) Glad, that my monotonous mumbling motivates somebody, thumbs up for the rg550 and I'm wishing you a great project with it, cheers!

Hi, thanks, it’s guitar>audient id44>Helix Native plugin with stereo preset + eventide plugin (micropitch for widening)

spasibou)

@@worknrolla Скоро и я представлю на канале Диванный Драйв свой Ibanez AX LAGS Signature Biohazard - 1 Guitar на целый Мир! После этой модели пошли гитары попроще, это Японии Fujigen Ibanez AX7521 1999 Years и Korean Ibanez AX7221.

😄but now this record is golden for me, bless the old phones with 0,3 mp camera))

That's the evidence for the family, that "+1" is always ok

Thanks) I think, that stock one is pretty awesome, too. There are old school and classic vibes🤘🏼

Thanks😎

All access is better, but that plate on the joint took us back to the 80s and make it look 10 times cooler))

Since the Genesis line is a modernized reissue rather than a 100% match of all the exact specs like you pointed out, they could have gone the square heel route yet choose the cutaway heel from older Jems instead. Old school looks aplenty, but fret access slightly better than the tilt joint. Still a great guitar!

It’s from previous owner, so 2 options here: or from Amazon, or maybe it’s the original one from Ibanez parts dealer

Hi, thanks! About the frets - I wish stainless steel, too, cause I had the Harley Benton Fusion with it and this is amazing option, but..we'll never have everything in one guitar for the reasonable price this day. About the accent: that's not french, it's just my poor English)) but I'm trying, I'm from Belarus living in Poland.. and my native language is russian, yeah it's complicated) Thanks for subscribing and have a good day (night?)

@@worknrolla Hi again. I almost said Ukranians which is close. Your accent is fine and your English is great. No worries. I don't know Russian except Nyet and Da. 😜🤣. I can speak Spanish enough to converse and just enough German to hail a taxi or find the bus station or train station, but that's about it. 😜🤣 Good video my friend and regards from Indiana. USA. ♥️🤘

@@worknrolla Oh. I almost forgot to say. I understand that the Ibanez Premium which are usually made in Indonesia but with Stainless frets and great pickups, etc, are reasonably priced and the luthiers were trained by the Japanese prestige luthiers. I think if I ever buy another factory guitar it will be one of these or a new PRS model. I have a nice American made PRS ten top that is incredible. So many nice guitars available now. I'm 62 and when I was young many many moons ago 🤣😜🤣 there were only Fender and Gibson for the most part and they were hit and miss for quality. Now that CNC machines are doing the work guitars are much better quality and consistency is better as well. . Best regards. Tim...

@@hoosierdaddy2308 yeah, forgot about premium line..and my prestige RG1527 from 2000s doesn't have stainless frets, too) I guess it's more like a new standards. And yeah, CNC and production in China-Indonesia opens a whole new world. If you didn't check the Harley Bentons, just for fun, check their new ST modern strats.. it's just came out a couple days ago, looks damn good for ~450 bucks (steel frets are there))

@@worknrolla I will check them out sir. Thanks for the recommendation. Really appreciate it.

Thanks, my congratulations! I got hsh original one and have a thoughts to put it back just with single coil cover in the center for more classic look..so maybe it’s the solution for you? All the mods were done by previous owner, but I think it’s from Amazon..or from a local Ibanez dealer (if it’s original)

Haha, thanks bro! Les Paul’s for life) mine is Burny in BlackBeauty outfit from early 90s (no maple cap). My respect for the Sykes/Moore and I had a Dirty Fingers in the bridge,too)) for now it’s Emgs 60-60, but the day will come and I’ll put a good set of Dimarzios, cause I miss the passive neck sounds. Got a question for you about Faber, I researched this topic, does it makes noticeable changes? Thanks once again)

@worknrolla OH shit! Look at that. Great minds, think alike, don't they? Nice taste in Burnys, of course. And that question about Faber hardware (or hardware in general) IS A SOLID YES! This is the thing, though. You must first gage the core tone of whatever guitar first (the wood in sound and resonance). Then, I'll recommend that you then visualize the particular unique overall range of tone to expand and volume for whatever you choose. I do this by playing back my personal recordings in general and my trove of favorite players. Naturally, the magic erupts out of what is consistent to your liking. Then, when you go about researching/shopping for parts, you pay attention to the fundamentals of each kind element for hardware (aluminum, brass, zinc, titanium, etc) and decide wisely how you would sum up as a good mix of these elements of hardware (or not). Also, as the best educated opinion on this question, I do recommend strongly that you should dismember the entire guitar from top to bottom and replace it with whatever intricate combo of new setup. This is where the amp will damn near yank you into it, like "the Poltergeist"! (I wish I was kidding). The most optimal outcome is over and beyond evident to how you feel and what you hear this way. It's all a matter of changing what you like less and keeping what you like more, too. It depends. The wiring styles and the particular capacitors is crucially integral as well (its the secret weapon between atomic and nuclear, sonically). Once again, there's no particular best as it relates to what the players vision is for a particular guitar, so don't jump and think that Bumble Bee caps, for example, are the way to go just because they are in deed, awesome. Just check out online Gibson's 'Jessica' model Les Paul with Orange Capacitors and Custom Bust Buckers (alnico v? And I suspect the hardware to be zink infused with aluminum) VS. Gibson's Les Paul 1978 Custom Black Beauty (John Sykes) with matching Tim Shaw Era Dirty Fingers Humbuckers in neck AND bridge, and you will find the sonic resonance to be unique between them two despite them both being substantially high output setups. This is a good sample to research as a supreme place to test your taste! Try hearing these two for curiosity sake, alone. Oh yeah, on my modded Les Paul of Subject, I applied old 50s wiring for the pots with two $45 dollar vintage spec Bumble-Bee capacitors. The neck capacitor is worth, .15u, and the bridge is worth, .22u. Now, try to generally imagine the dynamic between the very two sorts of Humbuckers that I had installed in my Blue Les Paul? Simpler said, the difference should be as alarming as switching out speakers in a cab for the first time. I hope that this does you justice, bro!

@@Foxtrot1989 wow, thanks for the detailed answer..but I think you bring more things to research and consider) I checked the question with bridges and materials (only on RUclips, not in real life) and I listened a lot (bridges and stop tails, tests, etc)..The Vintage guys: "only light aluminium by 59s specs is good enough"...every other guy has the opposite opinions (brass/zink/blablabla)) I wanted to experiment and buy something from Faber, but after the tons of opposite information I just changed tune o matic for the new zink Gotoh, saved the old one gotoh stop tail (zink, too, I guess) and concentrated on the music, but I defenetly want to change the pickups in the future..I'd like to try the alnico 2 in the neck (listened once and liked it so much) and I'll try the 50's wiring, too, thanks! P.s - for my taste, my "go to" sound of les paul heroes - John Sykes, Doug Aldrich, Vivian Campbell, Randy Rhoades

@work_n_roll Wow, bro, those big 4 are my personal exact "go-to" Les Paul guitar slingers! We must be kindred spirits in that regard, absolutely. As for my suggestions of different hardware, my intention was to just make you wise to the wide gamut of sounds that can be produced out of whatever combo that you could experiment with. I just emphasized the research of individual materials of whatever kinds of hardware for the sake of endorsing your own distinct personality as a player. There's lots of opinionated advice videos, so the ART lies in LISTENING for the variable nuances of each material piece, rather than following the advisors' opinions. Individuality is what bought us key players of all kinds, like Sykes, Moore, Campbell, and Aldridge! As for the humbucker scenario, I would recommend peeping out some Dimarzio 57 humbuckers alnico 2s, Seymour Duncan RTM (Demartini, alnico 2), and some of what Gibson has recently added to their pickup catalog, for some intrigue at least. By the way, zink is said by many opinionated folks to be the lesser of material, but the reality of it relies on the vision of the player FIRST and the resonance of the wood of any guitar, as each wood species and each guitar differs, let alone the different picking attacks of each individual players hands and style. Right on, regardless!

Thanks, I hope it’ll became better with this rocket)

congrats! this guitar is a killing machine
