Here's a gorgeous 1996 Ibanez RG570 electric guitar in ultra-rare LIGHT TEAL finish from the legendary FujiGen instrument factory in Japan. (Please view all high-resolution photos as they are part of the description.) You'd be hard pressed to find a cleaner example of an original RG570 anywhere today, let alone in this color. Apparently, Light Teal was only available in 1996 and ONLY in the USA.
Gorgeous DARK (quality) rosewood fretboard (looks untouched), straight neck and plays and sounds like all FujiGen RG's...effortlessly and massive. Very low action. Extremely RESONANT guitar even when unplugged. Frets show only the most faint hint of any wear. ALL hardware is immaculate. A brand new set of Ernie Ball 9-42's just recently installed.
Other than some TINY surface impressions here and there and scratches on the rear plastic tremolo cavity plate, the only blemishes worth noting are a couple of shallow 'scrapes' on the back of the neck as shown. They were there when I got it and they never bothered me, but they could be filled in and smoothed over if desired. The new owner can decide.
The prior owner swapped the stock pickups for a Dimarzio Air Norton and Tone Zone with purple covers which look and sound amazing. The middle pickup was left out and the selector switch replaced with a 3-way unit. Electronics work perfectly. NO cracks behind the locking nut and just a TINY finish crack (1/4") at the bass side of the neck pocket, a near miracle on these as you probably know.
The tremolo arm (not shown) along with a nice padded soft carry case are INCLUDED. And it will all be expertly packaged in a sturdy box with ample cushioning materials. Read my feedback and buy with confidence. From a smoke-free/pet-free home. Don't miss this rare stunner.
