Chambered body electric built for speedy playability and durable strength.
As part of the most recognizable and distinctive guitar in the Ibanez line, the RG8570 j.custom is built for both speed and durability. Whether you favor a hardtail (fixed) bridge or a locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument, featuring a flamed maple top and mahogany body paired to a special j.custom Super Wizard 5-piece maple/wenge neck for a comfortable, stable grip that makes sweeping and string skipping easier. This is topped with a Macassar ebony fretboard that produces tight lows and mids along with a strong attack in the highs. DiMarzio Air Norton, True Velvet and Tone Zone pickups offer depth, warmth and rich dynamics when combined with the 5-way pickup switch. Additional features include Gotoh machine heads and strap lock pins, along with a Lo-Pro Edge tremolo for maximum playing comfort. A hardshell case is included.
