Hi everyone,

desperately looking for an RG655. If anybody knows anyone that even just has one (not necessarily selling), please let me know... Maybe I can make him an offer.

Thanks


    Did you try www.bidorbuy.co.za. I just had a look they have a lot of similar instruments, Ibanez, at very reasonable prices.

      Hi @RobbieZ , I have had a look thanks, but those similar ones are the Indo made ones, I'm looking specifically for the Jap models ? And the 2550 is a step up from the 550 and 655 which is a bit out my budget, haha. But thanks for the reply on my message regardless, much appreciated!

        Yeti Thanks for replying dude, however that's an Indonesian model, I'm after the Jap models specifically... But thanks a mil nonetheless

            mxninja Dude, it seems like the week for RG's - just not 655's...

                @V8 Indeed it is the RG week, but... Still no ellusive RG655 ? haha.

                  Educate a Ibanez luddite (at least on the RG's) - why a 655? If it's the orange paintjob (I like), I can hook ya up with a rattlecan of dayglo ?

                    @V8 The RG655 is basically the re-incarnation of the old 550's with updated specs, like the Super Wizard Neck (very stable with titanium rods). Bang for buck, it's probably the best guitar in my opinion as it's likely the most cost effective way to get the Super Wizard neck along with the AANJ neck joint... And that's something I like about the 655's over the 550's is that it has the AANJ neck joint instead of the old tilt joint (which feels a bit intrsuive once you're used to AANJ, haha)

                      mxninja Ahaa, gotcha! It's a spec thing - I'm all for a super stable neck - it's my one bugbear - skinny necks that move with the weather. My strat has one glaring weakness - lovely wizard-esque skinny neck, my shreddy mates love the feel - but it cannot hold a tuning when the weather warms/cools. And I got every bit of graphtech nonsense and a tremel-no - no banana.

                      Weird that Ibby's don't all have a countered neck joint - it's kinda the reason for getting one? High fret shredability (not that I know what that is...:p)
