The Ibanez RG565 occupies a special place in the history of the RG family, reviving one of the most sought-after high-performance designs from the golden age of shred. Available now at Haggerty's Music, this Limited Edition Genesis Collection model faithfully captures the spirit of the original Japanese-built RG565 while incorporating the precision craftsmanship and playability that have made the Genesis Series a favorite among modern players. Finished in pulsing Purple Neon, it delivers unmistakable '90s-inspired style backed by world-class performance.

Built for speed from the ground up, the RG565 features a lightweight basswood body paired with an ultra-thin Super Wizard 5-piece maple and walnut neck that feels effortless from the very first note. The bound rosewood fingerboard sports 24 jumbo frets, white sharktooth inlays, and a fast 16.93" radius that encourages wide bends, fluid legato, and lightning-fast alternate picking. Combined with the legendary Edge double-locking tremolo, this guitar offers exceptional tuning stability and expressive performance, making it equally at home on stage or in the studio.

Its streamlined H-H pickup configuration combines an Infinity R neck humbucker with a powerful V8 bridge humbucker, delivering everything from warm, articulate cleans to aggressive high-gain tones with impressive clarity and dynamic response. Whether you're chasing classic hard rock, progressive metal, fusion, or technical shred, the RG565 delivers the fast feel, dependable hardware, and unmistakable Ibanez character that has inspired generations of guitarists.
