    The neck is super thin and super flat is the finest in Ibanez. It promotes the game trs technical and VLOC, but personally I hate the sleeves flat. The finish is satin trs enjoyable, Access in acute royal thanks to the heel is tapered and rounded appropriately. Small default: taken from the mirror are invisible button fawn position of play

    The reputation of not usurping Ibanez floyd: good performance agreement despite abuse "SteveVaiesques", but the stem is not adjustable: it does not care all the time in the camp and rear balance in the game scne gr ...

    The weight is good and the guitar pluttlger balance. It sounds "powerful" vacuum and microphones are Designed to fit in!

    SOUNDS

    The sound is high gnral medium, with a lot of prsence, just enough to agressivit modrable by Tone it has Designed for recess t Hard , Heavy, Trash, etc ... But the Tone trs exploitable allows jazz on the neck pickup a little by lowering the volume, and simply gives strato crunch well, hair can be more acute, even when we feel a great diffrence volume between the doubles and splits position. The sound is clear trs enjoyable on the neck pickup and positions 2 & 4, against the simple one and the bridge pickup is clearly oriented saturax.
    The magnets Cramique microphones are a bit of heat from Alnico, but we do not demand that the Blues scratching ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I like new is used three months ago. I thought not to like Ibanez, I was looking for something else in the nine (unsuccessfully) but like to play the Hard 80's, I think that's what I needed, it is just that I get used this handle highway Vitantis excs the speed;) may be that later I will put the Alnico to have a more Rock than Metal.

    The new 1570...kinda

    Ibanez RG2570EPublished on 09/06/11 at 13:50
    The RG1570 is back...kinda. This is really the same as a 1570, but it has some different inlays. Aside from that, it's really the same exact model. The guitar features a basswood body, a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard, 24 extra jumbo frets, sharkfin inlays, an Ibanez floyd rose, HSH configuration, one volume, one tone and a five way switch.

    UTILIZATION

    The guitar had a nice weight to it. It wasn't too heavy, and for someone who has a bad back like myself, that was a great thing. I hate heavy guitars, and I find that they tend to hinder tone as well. The fretwork on this was solid, and I didn't notice any major issues. There was some wear on them as this was a used guit…

    UTILIZATION

    The guitar had a nice weight to it. It wasn't too heavy, and for someone who has a bad back like myself, that was a great thing. I hate heavy guitars, and I find that they tend to hinder tone as well. The fretwork on this was solid, and I didn't notice any major issues. There was some wear on them as this was a used guitar, but it was nothing major. It was very light wear. The bridge on this is the Edge Pro, and it's a solid bridge. Some people like to hate on it because the previous Edges were amazing, but it's still a very solid and great bridge. The biggest issue is that it's a bit stiff.

    SOUNDS

    The guitar had some aftermarket pickups installed in it. It had the DiMarzio PAF Pro in the neck, Blue Velvet in the middle and Steve's Special in the bridge. The Steve's Special works awesome for these guitars. Basswood tends to be pretty midrange heavy, and the scooped SS works awesome for delivering some super clear and tight tones. It's like a match made in heaven. The Blue Velvet worked great for split tones, although I'm not a huge fan of it on its own. The PAF Pro is very cool for that new school PAF sound, but it can be a bit sterile and bitey at times. I tend to prefer pickups a bit warmer than this in the neck.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The guitar is great, and if you replace the pickups with something from the DiMarzio line up (which I find works best with basswood guitars), you'll have one hell of a player on your hands. The guitars are great buys on eBay and other places like that used. You can get a really good deal if you look around because they're so plentiful.
