Description
The Ibanez RG565R Genesis Collection is a standout choice for players who want the classic RG speed, precision, and unmistakable style. It's made with shredders and high-performance players in mind-perfect if you're into fast runs, big bends, and modern tones. Rooted in the original RG's design, this Genesis model channels Ibanez's Japanese craftsmanship and the era-defining specs that have kept these guitars at the front of the metal and rock scenes for decades.
You get a Super Wizard 5-piece Maple/Walnut neck for effortless playability, a bound Rosewood fretboard with jumbo frets, and a basswood body for balanced, natural tone. The V8 bridge pickup delivers punch and clarity, while the Infinity R neck pickup covers smooth leads and rhythm work. The Edge locking tremolo lets you dive and flutter with confidence, backed by Gotoh machine heads and a locking nut for maximum tuning stability-features that really matter when you're pushing the limits on stage or in the studio.
This is a guitar we'd recommend to any player who wants pro-level performance without any fuss. The RG565R is fast, reliable, and built to be played hard-no matter your style or setup.
