Description
The RG655M is an RG series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2015. It is part of the higher end, Japanese-made Prestige line. This model can be considered a more-or-less direct descendant of the original 1987 RG550.
The RG655M features a basswood body bolted to a maple and walnut Super Wizard neck with a 24-fret maple fingerboard with dot position markers. Components include an Edge double locking tremolo bridge, DiMarzio pickups with a pair of humbuckers flanking a single-coil, a locking nut and Gotoh tuning machines.
