Beskrivning
Allmänt
Originally unleashed on the world back in the early nineties as part of the Japanese Genesis Collection, the Ibanez RG565 has been levelled up for the new age while retaining the OG pickup configuration. The pickups however, are definitely new: an Alnico V V8 humbucker has been mounted at the bridge to deliver tight warmth framed by extra overtones to support riffs and leads, while the ceramic Infinity R neck pickup squeezes a full humbucker into a single-coil sleeve, bringing that more future-focussed definition.
The Ibanez RG565: Big, Flexible Tone
This solid reissue bears a similar control section, but besides the volume and tone controls, but the selector switch has been bumped up to a five-way version to grant access to the immense tonal spectrum this guitar is able to shape. So, as well as the three familiar sound profiles, the neck-pickup can be split and placed in parallel for sharper response, while the other position delivers a bridge humbucker and neck single-coil combo. This, teamed up with your favourite faithful amp, grants access to endless flexibility.
Comfort, Satisfaction & Extreme Dive Bombing
Just as with the original Genesis, the RG565 also comes with the ultra-thin feel of a Super Wizard neck profile, and since this premium model has been crafted by Ibanez’ Japanese master-builders, the 24 jumbo frets have an especially comfortable and satisfying playability. The Edge Tremolo Bridge and locking nut are also familiar features, supporting everything from subtle note bends to extreme dive bombing with unshakable tuning stability.
