The RG3550MZ's Edge Zero bridge with ZPS3 spring system allows for the most radical of trem effects.

Edge Pro Tremolo



The Edge-Zero, Ibanez's newest generation of knife edge tremolos, deploys all of the unique features of the ZR trem.
Edge-Zero trems are standard on all RGT Prestige, RG3000 and RG2000 models.
Back view of the Edge Zero bridge with ZPS3 string system which allows radical trem effects with flawless tuning accuracy.

The locking bolt is offset from the center of the saddle, which allows easy access to the bolt without loosening the strings.

Pickups

Bridge Pickup
Name: DiMarzio(R) Tone Zone(R)
Model No: DP155
Construction: Humbucking
Magnet: Alnico
Description: Hot enough to qualify as a high-output pickup, but has a wider dynamic range--hard picking will produce a lot of power, and softer picking will be much cleaner and quieter.
Middle Pickup
Name: DiMarzio(R) True Velvet(TM)
Model No: DP175S
Construction: Single Coil
Magnet: Alnico
Description: A vintage-style single-coil pickup that's clean and bright, but designed to still sound sweet when picking above the 12th fret. Coil is tuned to a frequency range that's bright but not thin.
Neck Pickup
Name: DiMarzio(R) Air Norton(TM)
Model No: DP193
Construction: Humbucking
Magnet: Alnico
Description: The tone is deep and warm, but not muddy. It's hot, but not distorted. It's even got cool harmonics, which are really unusual for a neck humbucker. .
