Desert Sun Yellow with matching headstock, original Edge trem, original neck joint w/neck plate. Serial # is F714594. There are NO chips anywhere on the finish. The neck plate is tarnished two of the Edge's black saddles have been replaced with a couple that are a smokey chrome color. When I bought it last week, it had red Dimarzio Super Distortions at neck and bridge, and red vol and tone knobs. I've swapped out the PUs to a PAF Pro at the neck and a Evolution at the bridge (both black), and the stock black knobs. |

Jared, I saw you posting and I just thought I would tell you I have found one myself for sale in a local pawnshop for $250. I put it on lay-a-way and I should have it out by the end of the month. All I really want to say is that these are totally awsome guitars. Hang on to the one you have, it will be worth it someday. Also when I get the axe I was going to put the same PU's you put in yours! So tell me, "how does it sound?" feel free to e-mail me directly. Ionianuser@hotmail.com Thanks. |

It was probably made in 1997 in Japan... got the same model made in 1996...very decent axe for the money. |

Ah, but it CAN'T be a '97-- I have the 1997 Ibanez catalog, and the RG550 is shown w/ the all-access neck joint and the bubinga skunk stripe. It HAS to predate '97. With that serial #-- how can it be anything other than a '87? |
