🔥 2013 Ibanez RG550 Reissue – Mesmerizing Violet Chameleon Finish! 🔥
Ready to own one of the most iconic modern shred machines ever made? This 2013 Ibanez RG550 reissue is finished in a stunning Violet Chameleon that constantly shifts and transforms under the lights — moving from deep, rich violet into an almost greenish silver depending on the angle and lighting. It’s a true chameleon effect that looks different every time you glance at it and turns heads on stage or in the studio.
Why This RG550 Rules
The RG550 reissue brought back the classic late-’80s/early-’90s RG magic with modern reliability. Beyond the eye-catching color-changing finish, you get the legendary ultra-fast Wizard neck, ergonomic body contours built for hours of playing, and that tight, responsive feel Ibanez is famous for. Whether you’re chasing searing high-gain leads, precise modern metal riffs, or versatile tones, this guitar is locked and loaded.
Condition – Near Mint
This example is in near-mint condition with very little playwear. The only real signs of use are some light scratches on the pickguard. The vibrant chameleon finish is clean and striking, the frets look excellent, and the hardware is solid. It has been professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability — smooth action, accurate intonation, and ready to shred right out of the bag.
What’s Included
• Original Ibanez gig bag
• Original tremolo bar
This is a clean, well-cared-for example of one of Ibanez’s most beloved reissue models, elevated by that constantly shifting violet-to-greenish-silver finish. Near-mint RG550s with this kind of dramatic color-changing paint don’t come around often.
Serious inquiries only. More photos available on request (especially under different lighting to show the full color shift) — or come try it and watch the finish change as you play. This one won’t last.

Our Guarantee
We stand behind every guitar we sell. “Good enough” is never good enough. Every instrument is inspected, set up, and tested by multiple people immediately before shipping. We deliver the highest standard of quality and have built a reputation as a three-time NAMM Top 100 Dealer since 2009. The Dude Abides.
Neck & Setup - (unless otherwise noted)
- Neck is perfectly straight with no truss-rod issues.
- Intonation is spot-on.
- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.
- All frets are dressed, leveled, crowned (if needed), and all frets on all guitars are polished to shine like new with no divots.
Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy
We follow Reverb’s 7-day return policy. However:
- You must
notify us in writing within 3 days of delivery (per tracking) of your intent to return.
- Original shipping and return shipping costs are not refunded unless the guitar is damaged in transit or is significantly not as described.
- A 15% restocking fee applies to all returns for any reason other than damage in transit or significantly not as described.
We do our best to honestly describe and photograph every guitar and most of the noticeable imperfections. That said, we are human, if something very small can be overseen, if tiny marks, dings or super fine scratches (normal wear) bother you, please don't buy.
We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.
Minor adjustments and tweaks to a set up (for example to correct a slight buzz or truss-rod tweak) are normal after shipping due to carrier mishandling the package, climate & atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments. These slight issues do not constitute “significantly not as described.” Guitars must be returned in the exact same condition as received/advertised or additional repair/restocking fees will apply.
We are a small family owned and run business, not a big-chain retailer. We invest significant time, money and effort into every guitar. This is a NO TIRE-KICKING shop. There is no post purchase haggling, returns without restocking fees or partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy. Plenty of large retailers offer free trials and can absorb shipping costs—we do not.
Payment, Shipping & International Duties
- All items can be shipped internationally. Buyer is fully responsible for all import duties, taxes, and customs fees.
- We accept PayPal, PayPal Credit, Affirm, and other major payment methods.
- Most U.S. shipments are sent via UPS or FedEx with full insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation. All packages are professionally packed for maximum protection.
International Shipping Note
International shipping prices shown are for most countries. Certain countries have higher costs. We try and avoid USPS and mostly ship UPS, but USPS is the only available or reasonable carrier in certain situations. Express services (UPS, DHL, FedEx) are always available. We can’t under value merchandise as it can not be properly insured. If you would like to discuss different avenues, contact us by phone for a personalized quote.
Thank you for considering The Guitar Dude. We look forward to earning your business and delivering a guitar that exceeds your expectations. Contact us anytime for questions, consignment inquiries, layaway details, or a personalized shipping quote.
