All user reviews for the Ibanez RG570 [1989-1992]

Made in Japan in the 90s. Much better than Ibanez today!
The bridge is the LoPro Edge licensed Floyd Rose. It is perfect ... Dive bombing with no problem: you can loosen the strings at the bottom, it amounts to fair deal! Never seen that! on the other hand to match, like all Floyd's cotton ...
It has 24 jumbo frets on a Wizard neck whose reputation is second to none.
Originally three microphones, two doubles and a single to center (I believe QM1 and QM2 QS1) Configuration: Double handle - split sleeve & easy - simple - split easel & single - double easel.
Setting: a volume, tone.

UTILIZATION

Channel type Ibanez Wizard! Enough said ... Ferrari! It is even too fast for me, I'm afraid!
A little heavy in my version (MH) but comfortable. Access to acute impeccable. The original pickups are a little behind, I placed PRS HFS and Vintage Bass Trebble, suddenly the beast explodes ... Only just stayed home.

SOUNDS

Its very fat and rather typed metal. MH version but we are pleasantly surprised, it is very versatile, having said that, it's not a Stratocaster, far from it ...

All sounds are usable, a little lack of character on the simple one, maybe. My favorite: double bridge, split-center shaft.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since 1994 I believe, I 'bought a lai - happy - whim.
I like the quality of the Violin, mahogany finish (MH) and golden hardware.

It lacks just a soundboard more snapping maple to be perfect. Matter of taste. But would it then still a RG in this case?

An excellent choice, and used it to make the case. Just make sure that the neck is straight. Wizards at that time had a tendency to twist ... but mine has never experienced this kind of problem. Go for it!

japanese production
easel lo-pro edge-2 (licensed floyd rose)
bolt-on neck 24 frets, reverse head, rosewood fingerboard inlaid with "shark teeth", rounded hoof
The frets are fairly thin
micro MSM (V7 S1 V8 original)
5 position selector
2 knobs (volume and tone)

attention = rendering glitter is nice but the method of application is rather sketchy in the corners (the tremolo cavity, backplates). Over the edges of the sleeves would have deserved a bit more polished, white, shows some irregularities and the frets a bit beyond.

UTILIZATION

Run fine, but the width is ideal for shredder, it feels no fatigue even after 3 hours of playing the guitar is light, well balanced, easy access to acute.


SOUNDS

By his side against the original pickups singularly lacking potato, it goes everywhere but without flag.
I opted for my part for this configuration:
Acute = DIMEBUCKER SH 13: Potato compensates its well lightness of the body of the guitar, harmonics very easy, its very scooped that will not please everyone ...
HS2 = medium format is a single coil but it is an electrically Humbach, very clean and clear clear sound, good dynamic
handle = Seymour Duncan SH1 59 ', clear sound very warm, very clean saturated can send solos with remarkable precision.

OVERALL OPINION

Purchased in 1997, I upgraded the pickups in 2010, to give it a second life. Now his song refers to its feathers, it does not go unnoticed as for its looks as for its sound.
On ads in 2011, its price is OCCAZ in 350 euros, I consider it a case at this price. Voili voilou ...
