The RG is the most recognizable and distinctive guitar in the Ibanez line. Three decades of metal have forged this high-performance machine, honing it for both speed and strength. Whether you favor a hardtail (fixed) bridge or our industry-leading locking tremolo system, the RG is a precision instrument.
The RG8570Z positively shows superb looks, tone, and playability, just like every guitar in Ibanez’s premium J Custom range. Its stunning AAA African mahogany body with a flamed maple cap provides incredible resonance and sustain. A Prestige fret edge treatment gives its bonded Macassar ebony fingerboard the smoothest playability possible, and its five-piece neck gives it the perfect feel. Your amp is pushed with DiMarzio’s Tone Zone, True Velvet, and Air Norton pickups to produce searing leads and crunching rhythms. Beyond that, an Edge-Zero vibrato bridge/tailpiece allows you to bend, twist, and dive-bomb with impunity. Ibanez’s stunning tree of life fingerboard inlay and Cosmo black hardware are featured on the RG8570Z.
