Three have just gone up on Ikebe:
http://www.ikebe-gakki.com/search_fair.php?fairId=48
- available in red, black or purple
- looks the same as last year's RG8470Z but with a True Velvet instead of Blue Velvet middle pickup (couldn't tell you the difference as I always go for H-H setups)
- not seen neck specs - presumably the current J-Custom fave 17mm-19mm Super Wizard as opposed to the chunky neck profile of the RG8570 from a few years ago
I know some will complain there's hardly any change, and yes that's boring for those of us fortunate enough to already own a J-custom, but at the end of the day it's a winning superstrat formula and putting aside quibbles over the current trem or personal pickup preference, I'm sure these guitars will totally rock.
