White & grey

Ibanez did a wonderful thing this July by re-introducing the Genesis RG550 in white. It was done before not too long ago & was quickly snapped up. Those who are trawling the scalper's market for one can now get it for a reasonable retail price.

This is the other new finish in the lineup, a grey affair & would probably appeal to senior folks like me.

TB

That brass contraption you see there is a Trem-Band. What does it do?

There. Basically for players who own a guitar with a dual action whammy but wish it to be single action only for some reasons. Trying to understand who such players are & the reason(s) for not owning more than one guitar to fulfil this need.

Capo pedal

The manufacturer refers to this as a capo in a pedal format. It raises / lowers pitch emulating a physical capo function. In layperson understanding, it's actually a pitch-shifting device & it's gonna cost you USD249. Yay / nay? (PS: the SOLAR Chug capo can be purchased direct from the manufacturer's homepage).
