GPOTD 8.30.12- From my own personal collection

That must be the reasoning behind this.

There is no reasoning behind that.
 
It's one of those guitars that has so many things going wrong with it that you can't help to fall in love. It's like a ginger stripper with a drug problem and an abusive ex-boyfriend and you keep going back for another roll in the hay...
 
I kinda like the first one, and definitely like the second one. I think they should have gone black on the pup covers on the first one. I would play either. I hate the one Rev1 posted.
 
Mine would be a little less "Big Hair" in certain places honestly, unless I went for the "Big Hair Combover". Gaahhh!!! Big Hair Mullet Combover!! :eek:
 
my guitar teacher had one in pink. it was awesome until he stripped it and painted it flat black. when i bought my RG, he was really impressed with how close they felt, but how much the pickups made a difference.
 
The RG550's were pretty darn close to the JEM series, except for the pickups and a few minor spec differences. The PAF Pros in the JEM really make the guitar sound great. I had an RG550 and a couple of earlier roadsters, and the stock pickups from that era were pretty terrible. The roadster pickups were anemic, and the RG models seemed to up the output a bit, but they never quite captured the magic of the PAF pro. I played a recent ibanez, and the pickups sounded much better, but I still hear people complaining about them.
