Ibanez RG1070PBZ with upgraded S1070PBZ neck , 2017, OHSC, Great specimen ,
I have an Ibanez RG1070PBZ that is equipped with a 2017 Ibanez S1070PBZ neck here with its factory hard soft case. They are compatible and very similar.
Condition wise, this guitar looks very good with some play wear that I will describe for you.
The body top looks great. The only thing I found here was a small amount of superficial guitar pick strumming, mostly below the neck pickup. Any similar traces of superficial swirling will be minimal. Elsewhere there are a few scattered traces, but no accumulated sheen or formed patterns of any of that. I did not find any singular marks.
The body sides and edges look good across the perimeter. I found one small round finish mark at the lower horn cutaway about 1 or 2 mm in size. At the neck pocket I found a tiny hairline finish crack about a millimeter or two in size. See the last picture for this. As far as those go, this one is pretty insignificant. The other side of the neck pocket appears to have an even smaller one too small to catch on camera. That does not break the finish, more so it looks like a tiny outline that did not quite break through. I did not find any major or ugly notable marks along the body edges.
The body back shows no buckle rash or worming. Nor did I find any individual notable marks. I see a tiny bit of scattered superficial swirling type signs of use, about the same intensity as guitar pick strumming. But I did not find any penetrating finish scratches. There is no notable play wear. The overall bulk of the surface looks excellent.
The neck shaft contour looks and feels great. I did not find any dings or bumps or play wear. The headstock looks great. I did not find any chips or dings. The frets are tall and full showing no pits or divots. The setup plays great. It is pretty much dialed in and does not need much in the way of maintenance because this is a multi piece laminate neck that is really stable. So this guitar played great for me right out of the case and I have needed to make no changes to it. That is often the case with Ibanez, they are just really well engineered. The electronics are stock and working as they should.
So this one rates an 8.6/10 and grades as very good, with the majority of the guitar actually looking excellent cosmetically. I found a very minor neck pocket crack and one small round finish mark along the edge as the only noteworthy mentions on this guitar. The pictures do it justice, it looks great and plays and sounds great.
Ibanez in general is a brand that looks at guitar building like an engineer, where every facet of the guitar is designed for performance. They have mastered the art of making a stable playable neck that is thin and plays fast. They have their own proprietary tremolo system. The guitar shape is an evolution, a more ergonomically sculpted version of a Strat style body. You can literally look up and down a high end Ibanez guitar and see little details that were thoughtfully refined from years of research and development.
Note that this listing may come down at any time as I am a multi-platform seller and do sell locally and on my own Site as well in an effort to keep sales fluid. State sales tax will be charged on Reverb sales when applicable, so factor that into your purchase.
I will immaculately pack it as well. I use quality shipping boxes, ample tape on all sides. And sufficient bubble wrap filler and bracing inside the box. And always Marked/denoted as fragile. I generally detune guitars 1/2 half step prior to shipment as well if needed.
Thank you for reading and considering!
