Designed first and foremost for shredders, the Ibanez RG Genesis Collection RG521 is an electric guitar styled in a cool jewel blue finish. It features a double-cutaway basswood body and a Super Wizard five-piece maple/walnut neck. This neck, outfitted with a 25.5" scale, sports a rosewood fingerboard with white dot inlays, as well as 24 jumbo frets for all your shrieking, shredding needs.

For electronics, the guitar is outfitted with a V7 humbucking pickup in the neck and a V8 humbucker in the bridge. A volume knob and a tone knob are on hand to help you shape your sound, as is a 5-way pickup selector that makes series and split configurations possible. Strings are affixed to the body with a Gibraltar Standard II bridge, which aids in sustain and tuning stability. The guitar was made in Japan.
