The RG550XH is an RG series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2013. It was produced in Indonesia.
The RG550XH is an update of the long-running RG550. The most notable feature of the RG550XH is its extended range 30-fret neck and extra deep lower cutaway to allow the player to reach the extra fingerboard real estate. The RG2011SC is a similar 30-fret model in the Prestige line.
