RG8570CST Natural (more images)

The RG8570CST is an RG series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2022. It was made in Japan by FujiGen as part of the high end J Custom line.

The "RG8570CST" features an exotic maple top on an African mahogany body bolted to a maple and wenge neck with a 24-fret Madagascar ebony fingerboard with split block position markers and Luminlay side dots. Components include DiMarzio pickups with a pair of humbuckers flanking a single-coil, a Lo-Pro Edge double locking tremolo bridge, Gotoh machine heads, and Gotoh Strap lock pins.

The RG8570CST is similar to the 1991 UCEW1QM (NT) model from the Exotic Wood series of the USA Custom line.

The RG8570CST was discontinued after 2023.
