Ibanez RG1570 - Amazing Guitar

Ibanez has always had a very playable guitar, and through the years Ibanez has continued to define and re-define what a modern guitar should be. This is one of the main reasons why I have continued to be an Ibanez player. Each new generation of Ibanez guitars really is a giant leap forward in playability and innovation.
Right out of the gate, the RG1570 is an amazing guitar with probably the best tremolo out there. The new Ibanez Prestige neck has gone away with the drilling the locking nut through the weakest part of the neck, thus seems to have fixed the one inherent flaw with Ibanez’s (the weak neck at the locking nut). The only fault that I have with this guitar is with the V7, S1, V8 pickups (though easily changed out). This fault is easy to overlook because most guitar players will probably upgrade to their favorite pickups in due time.
