★RG j.custom2026 Limited Model !!
Carrying on the legacy of the RG565R, this limited edition model exudes elegance with its deep wine-red color and distinctive grain pattern!!

~j.custom~
The j.custom concept is very simple.
“Guitars crafted from carefully selected wood by Japan’s most skilled artisans, constantly pursuing the highest playability and superior sound.”
This has remained unchanged since its inception and continues to this day.
Guided by this concept, and to meet the increasingly diverse styles, preferences, and demands of guitarists at the highest level, j.custom represents Ibanez’s pinnacle of electric guitars, crafted in workshops across Japan.

~Features~
“RG j.custom Super Wizard” Shape 5-Piece Maple/Wenge Neck
This neck is constructed from a 5-piece combination of maple and wenge, designed to prioritize a natural sound while ensuring sufficient strength.
It features the ultra-thin Super Wizard shape, designed for playability and slimness—ideal for players who prefer an extremely lightweight feel.
The neck back features a “Velvetouch” finish that molds comfortably to your hand, just like a guitar that’s been played for years.

Rosewood Fingerboard
A rosewood fingerboard characterized by its midrange response and warm tone.

Tree of Life Fingerboard Inlay
This inlay design was inspired by the “Tree of Life” planted in the center of the Garden of Eden, as described in the Old Testament.
This is one of the features that allows you to fully appreciate the exquisite beauty unique to instruments made in Japan.

Luminlay Phosphorescent Side Dot Position Markers
We’ve incorporated phosphorescent dot position markers that adapt to rapidly changing performance environments caused by lighting.

Jumbo-Size Frets w/ J.Custom Fret Edge Treatment
This is a custom treatment that rounds the edges to a spherical shape.
Not only does the spherical shaping require skill, but so does ensuring uniformity in shape; this process, which only skilled craftsmen can perform, is carried out meticulously by hand, one guitar at a time.
You’re sure to appreciate the smooth, stress-free feel when making significant position changes with your left hand.

Exotic Hard Maple (4mm thick) Top / African Mahogany Body
The body, crafted from African mahogany—known for its rich mid-to-low frequency response—features a top made of exotic hard maple (4mm) with a distinctive, unique grain pattern.

DiMarzio Pickups
The neck position features the Air Norton S, known for its clear and warm sound, while the bridge position features The Tone Zone, known for its powerful sound and well-balanced output across the entire frequency range.

Edge Tremolo Bridge
This double-locking tremolo bridge is favored by many artists for its smooth operation, brilliant sound, and high tuning stability.

Gotoh Tuners
GOTOH machine heads are valued by guitarists worldwide for their smooth operation, reliability, and durability.

Switchcraft Jack
This model features a Switchcraft pipe jack, renowned for its robust construction and reliability.

Tilted Jack Cavity
Unlike guitars with standard side-jack configurations, the woodwork around the jack—where the shielded cable plug is inserted—is carved inward toward the body from the direction of the strap pin.
This design prevents the cable from accidentally falling out by routing it through the strap.

Gotoh Strap Lock
It is equipped with a GOTOH® strap lock that can be attached and removed with a single touch.
