Firefox2551 Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Hey all, I've just purchased this Ibanez RG-570 And I'd like to know what type of trem it has, pics below. The writting on the trem is as follows, on the bar with the fine tuners, "Licensed Under Floyd Rose Patents" on one side of the trem block in big lettering the Ibanez Logo and the word Edge under that in smaller letters "Japan" and on the opposite side there are two Large Letters "HS" I'd like to know what year the guitar was made if anyone knows how the Ibanez serial numbers work. Back of headstock says, Serial No. F602926 Made in Japan. Color is supposedly "Sparkle Green" Thanks Guys!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IplayMayones Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 The trem is an Ibanez Edge. Same trem on my Ibanez RG 560. More info on edge trems here It looks like the guitar was made in 1996. Nice guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox2551 Posted November 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 I don't see anywhere on the neck saying RG 570, I haven't checked in the neck pocket though, I googled the color and some 517's did come up so you may very well be right. Thanks for the info!!!! Yeah, I just got it home today, spent about 5 hours polishing the frets, took the trem down to all peices and cleaned and polished everything I could, It sounds REALLY good. And I haven't even done intonation and pickup adjustment yet! I paid $225. I was more thinking of using it as a parts guitar, but.... it may just be a little too nice for that.
