Up for sale, a 1996 Ibanez J. Custom RG1712-RV in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This rare Ibanez was crafted at the Fujigen factory as part of the upscale J. Custom line, only produced for one year, featuring a quilted maple top with a gloss Royal Violet finish, DiMarzio humbuckers, and a Lo-Pro Edge tremolo.

Tonewoods include a mahogany body with a two-piece quilted maple top, three-piece maple neck, and a 24-fret rosewood fretboard. The humbucker in the bridge position is a DiMarzio Tone Zone, a bold and powerful high-output pickup that offers great low end and lower-midrange response to ensure the tone stays full and fat. The neck humbucker is a DiMarzio Air Norton, a warm, open-sounding pickup designed with a unique magnetic structure to reduce string pull and increase sustain while maintaining dynamic feel and responsiveness to user inputs. The five-way pickup selector also coil taps the humbuckers in positions 2 and 4. This Ibanez weighs 8lbs 9oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Royal Violet finish highlights the quilted maple figuring on top, and cosmetic wear is limited to faint buckle rash at the belly contour, a bit of pick scuffing on top, and just a couple tiny dings on the body perimeter. The smooth satin finish on the neck profile is flawless.

An Ibanez-branded gigbag is included, along with the owner’s manual.
