The RG270B is an RG series solid body electric guitar introduced by Ibanez in 1995. There were at least three distinct models produced with this same name with slightly different features.

This RG270B features a resoncast body bolted to a maple neck with a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot position markers. Components include a single locking tremolo bridge and Ibanez pickups with a pair of humbuckers mounted in pickup rings flanking a single-coil.

The RG250 is a similar model with a pickguard and chrome hardware.

This RG270B was available only in Asia (including Japan) & South America and was discontinued after two years in production.
