"JADE MANTIS"
This guitar is based on an RG570 model but was produced in the style of a special run of j. Customs that were only available in Europe. This build is centered around a stunning Green Gradation finish over a Figured Maple top, paired with a Birdseye Maple fingerboard that features a matching Green Gradation finish. These varying shades of green inspired the ‘Jade Mantis’ moniker. The earthy theme and organic look of this guitar is further enhanced by the elegant satin gold hardware, along with the cream-colored pickups and natural Flamed Maple body edges and neck binding. This RG also features an extremely versatile electronics setup: an HSH pickup configuration with a 5-way switch, plus a coil tap to unlock additional tonal textures and timbres. The ‘Jade Mantis’ also comes equipped with highly desirable stainless-steel frets. Not only is this one absolute stunner of an RG, but it is also a veritable Swiss army knife of useful sounds and tones.
