The RG2570EX is an RG series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2003. It essentially replaced the RG570EX as part of the expanded Prestige line.

The RG2570EX features a basswood body bolted to a maple neck with a 24-fret bound rosewood fingerboard with deluxe sharktooth position markers. Components include two DiMarzio/IBZ humbucking pickups flanking a DiMarzio/IBZ single coil, an Edge Pro double locking tremolo bridge with a locking nut and Gotoh tuning machines.

The RG2571EX is a similar model with a hard-tail bridge. The RG2570EXL is a left-handed model.

In 2004, the RG2570EX was visually updated with a new finish and hardware. In 2005, it was replaced by the RG2570E.
