Ibanez RG1570 Prestige Electric Guitar - Suede Black Finish
Prestige guitars combine the right selection of rich tones, collector’s class looks, and the extreme durability and playability needed by the touring pro. These are some of the finest performance instruments Ibanez have ever made.
Prestige guitars and basses are the result of extensive work by Ibanez luthiers and designers in Sun Valley, California and Nagoya, Japan. By making, modifying and maintaining instruments for our esteemed group of Ibanez artists, Ibanez luthiers and designers have come to a unique understanding of the stylistic, recording and performing needs of today’s guitarists. The ideas and inspiration from that work, the imagination of our designers, and the finest materials and electronics available are what set Prestige instruments apart from anything else you can own.
An army stands before the gates of the castle, silently awaiting the call to battle.
In their hands they clutch their time-worn axes, bloodied but still razor-sharp as the day they were forged. For two decades, the legion of RG warriors has grown like a virus, thrusting the RG to the head of the metal pack. Fast, flat necks, rabid pickups and double-locking trems combine to create sonic demons from beyond the world of mortals.
An extremely accessible entry point to the Ibanez RG Prestige range of guitars.
Featuring a solid Basswood body the RG1570 has a nice resonant tone which translates nicely through to a huge plugged in sound.
The pick up configuration is HSH switchable with the 5 way selector allowing you to use each pick up on their own or mix in the neck/middle or bridge/middle respectively for a wide range of tones. The bridge pick up is a pokey rock pick up, perfect for crunching tones and will clean up nicely with the volume rolled off. The neck pick up is fat and warm while still packing plenty of punch. The middle pick up is crystal clean which is ideal for shimmering chord work. Ideal for rock styles, the guitar is versatile enough to handle a range of styles however. No matter what style you are into - the guitar is a deam to play.
The main controls of the guitar are dead simple, with a global volume and tone - very responsive with smooth roll off/on.
The RG1570 is an absolute bargain and a great entry point to the Prestige range, all the styling an playability at your fingertips at sensible money.
