$2,549.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 2021 Ibanez J. Custom RG8570Z in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case, CoA, and owner’s manual. This upper-tiered Ibanez was crafted at the Fujigen factory as part of the J. Custom line, featuring an HSH trio of DiMarzio pickups, Edge Zero tremolo with ZPS tuning stabilizer, and gloss Almandite Garnet finish with matching headstock.

Tonewoods include a AAA flame maple top on an African mahogany body, five-piece maple/wenge neck, and bound Macassar ebony fingerboard. 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 central single coil is a DiMarzio True Velvet, with single coil shimmer and snap, blending well with the humbuckers at the “in-between” positions on the five-way pickup selector switch. 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 Almandite Garnet finish highlights the uniform, dimensional figuring in the AAA flame maple top, and cosmetic wear on the finish is limited to light pick scuffing along the treble side of the pick path, limited wrist jewelry-related worming along the bass side of the top, and a handful of tiny nicks along the lower bout perimeter. The satin finish on the neck profile is flawless.

The original molded hardshell case is included, along with the CoA and owner’s manual.
