@jmdb1994 I had it, but I sold it to get this. The neck on the schecter is pretty great, but it's no wizard neck. Feels closer to a gibson style neck, but slimmer. Very nice guitars for the money.
Ibanez doesn't make a black RG with white binding, a 3 way switch and a neck pup in it. Nor do they make an RG that has single coil tapping the way I have it set up.
the Ibanez Rg2ex1 has white binding and black with Two humbuckers but no tremolo and the Ibanez mtm2 has the same thing but with tremolo but both dont have coil tap like yours. :P
Good to know, but I think the mtm2 came out after I purchased this ibanez. also consider that mine is a prestige that I bought new for 600$ (I have a friend who is an ibanez dealer). In either case, I would have pulled the crappy ibz pups anyway on the rg2ex1 or the mtm2.
This one, however, came with a killer duncan in the bridge, but still, that pup didn't sound as good as my dimarzio set I now have in this thing.
Take care of this guitar son, I don't see them on the Ibanez site anymore, so they've probably stopped making them and the word is out on how awesome they are!
I had a luthier do it and he was pretty in-expensive. he charged me 80$ total for the routing of the neck pup, the 3 way selector, the push/pull knob and the install of the 2 new pups. his routing wasn't the cleanest, but I also didn't pay a lot and it's something I can fix with some putty and paint.
wow thats incredible here they charge freakin 80 bucks to install the pickup haha especially if theyre active i just got this guitar last night it plays great have you had any problems with it?
I have also these rg but with the edge pro one (that i think is better than edge zero) and its sounds and feels amazing the best guitars i've ever played
This guitar is awesome! Sounds, plays and just feels great! The edge-zero seems to work fine. Tuning takes some time, but once it's locked in you'll be set.
man...the RG with the wizard neck is my favorite guitar. I'm also wanting another RG series guitar. They are seriously amazing guitars and the necks are so nice to play on.
if you haven't seen my videos ..i play a les paul style guitar and it sounds great,plays great....but when I got my RG 2550Z...whoa my favorite guitar easily now...the wizard neck is unbelievable so thin and fast... and the tone is absolutely stunning...
hey Ray, I'm Chuck. Thanks for the compliments! Any tips and advice on what types of things to learn to make my soloing be more than just scale runs? hehe.
mark iv or v for metallica tones
i think the v lacks balls

I love this guitar! I had a neck pup installed with a 3 way selector.
m3at 2 years ago
Nice!, what did you put in it?
sircraigery 2 years ago
I put a breed in the bridge and an air norton in the neck with a 3way and push/pull volume to split the coils. So many tones out of it now.

I tuned it in Drop C, and it's fine. Agreed, once it's set.... it's set. You can leave it for weeks and it's still in perfect tune.
