In the factory setting it's half-floating but you can adjust it so that it floats completely (remove the point zero system). Great Edge Zero tremolo on knife edges with locking system that works like a Swiss clock. It has 24 jumbo frets, IBZ/Di Marzio HSH pickups (made by DiMarzio for Ibanez or made by Ibanez under DiMarzio license? I don't know.) (Originally written by AlanDay/translated from Audiofanzine FR)Īssembled in Japan by the J.Craft Team. After a quick pickup swap, you're good to go. That's how I recommend running these guitars. If you're not liking it, try disabling the ZPS system. However, others seem to have problems with it, so I recommend trying it out in the store first. A lot of people will enjoy the Edge Zero with the ZPS, especially with its ability to easily intonate it. If you're looking for a new RG, this is a pretty good model. For lead tones, basswood sounds great, and rhythm tones work out very nicely for progressive/fusion style music. I'm a big fan of using DiMarzios in basswood bodies, so I generally choose something like the Breeds, Evo 2 or the such, depending on what tone I'm going for. Once you replace them, the guitar really comes to life. The pickups in this model are the same as the last one, so they're somewhat bland sounding. That said, I prefer disabling this system as it feels somewhat unnatural when doing certain whammy bar techniques. Also, when you break a string, it'll still stay in tune. When the ZPS system is used, you can downtune to your hearts content without worrying about spending 30 minutes trying to adjust the claw just right. One problem some people have with floyds is that you can't easily downtune them. It features the same features that ZPS system which basically acts as a trem stopper. The biggest difference would probably be the new Edge Zero tremolo.

Just like the last one, this model is well put together. It also has the wedge sharktooth inlays and a pickguard installed. Just like the last one, this has a basswood body, maple neck with a rosewood fretboard, HSH configuration, 24 frets, volume knob, tone knob and 5 way switch. It's pretty much the same as the last model, but this model has the new Edge Zero trem installed. The RG-2550Z is the replacement of the RG-2550E.
