Im extremely satisfied. Having owned an RG1570 I already was prepared for how terrible the pickups would be so going into it I knew exactly what I was getting. The RG1550M btw out performs the RG1570 by a long shot.
Sound
This is a tough one to score because I know that sound is more than just pickups. The pickups in this guitar are terrible HOWEVER the guitar itself sounds wonderful. Great combination of woods especially that Maple neck. Has a very bright sound. With a Air Norton, Steve Special, Dsonic, or EMG81 (though may be too sterile sounding) this guitar would REALLY shine.
Features
Included a hardshell custom case, trem bar, and basic tools. Had an instruction manual as well.
Ease of Use
The Edge Pro trem in my opinion is a bit tougher to get perfect than the Floyd Rose.
Quality
Amazing quality on this guitar. The only thing I didn't like was the paint smelled terrible on the guitar. Did I mention this guitar is EXTREMELY LIGHT!!!!
Value
This guitar is a great deal for the dollar. Spend an extra 250 on pickups and locking studs and you easily have an elite guitar.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't needed help from Ibanez EVER and zzounds.com has always been great.
The Wow Factor
Poison Pumpkin and I added a black AN and a Black with Pink Rail Dsonic. It gets tons of attention.
