General

The Ibanez J.Custom RG8570 is one of the best guitars the Japanese maker has ever built. The core of this RG model is formed by a solid African mahogany body that comes topped with flamed maple and finished with natural-reveal binding to create a more-than-charming mix of colours. Meanwhile, the HSH pickup configuration guarantees a vast range of superior sounds as shaped by the beefy DiMarzio 'The Tone Zone' bridge pickup, the highly expressive DiMarzio 'Air Norton' humbucker in the neck position, and the flexible-and-sparkling DiMarzio 'True Velvet' single-coil in the middle. Also, since it's nothing short of the real deal, the J.Custom Series RG8570 comes complete with a case, multi-tool, Gotoh straplocks and a certificate of authenticity.

The J.Custom RG8570: A High-Spec Build

As befits a high-end axe, the RG8570 has a satisfyingly slim, custom Super Wizard neck profile and an uber-stable, 5-piece maple-and-wenge neck. This, combined with a set of trusty Gotoh-made tuners ensures superb tuning stability, while the macassar ebony fretboard has been furnished with an elegant 'Tree of Life' inlay and twenty-four jumbo frets, where each fret has been specially treated to get rid of any sharp edges. The fretboard has a flat 16.9-inch radius for optimum grip on the strings and eased bends, and to accommodate extreme vibrato tricks, Ibanez have completed the build with a Lo-Pro Edge double locking tremolo bridge.
