Ibanez also re-released the RG1521, so the question is when will we (USA) get the 1521 with maple?

One can dream...

I'm guessing we won't see these in the states.
Just like we're not going to see 100 HAM's.
I still want this Samurai RG.

Awwwww, sick. Listen, I'm definitely gonna get my hands on that 2550z with the maple board. That's wonderful news! It's like a souped up 550.

I'm still not a fan of the smoke mirror pickguard on the 2550. And I have a black one. Maybe I'll swap the pickguard out someday . . .

Nor me. I'd go with a black guard and white pickups or a white guard and leave the black pickups in there.
