Ibanez RG320FA

I bought this guitar off Gutiar Amp Keyboard for £329 which is a brilliant prize for this guitar. I got this guitar because i felt like i needed a new one and i was sugjested buying an ibanez for my style of music.

I absolutly love the walnut finish on it. The finish is way better than any of the pictures sugjested so i was really surprised when i opened it and it just looks absolutly fantastic, the woodgrain effect is really nice as well,i think it really goes with the red colour. I like the fact it has 24 frets, which the cut away gives easy access to. The wizard II neck is really nice and thin. It came almost perfectly in tune so i was quite pleased about that the fact i didn't have to use allan keys to tune it, all i had to do was use the fine tuners on the bridge. I really like the heavy rock sound it gives out thanks to its 2 humbucking powersound pickups its really good for rock music if thats what your looking for.

Hardly anything apart from the strings than came with it and there was this tinyest dent in it when i got it(hardly noticable unless ur looking for it) and the difficulty of changing strings will be annoying when i actually have to change them. Apart from that this guitar is absolutly great! cound't ask for more!

Its made out of basswood and i don't not exactly what the neck is made of, probally rosewood. Its got a flamed ash top and 2 cut aways.

Brilliant guitar, anyone looking for a new guitar, this is the one for u. Great sound, 24 frets, looks fantastic, what more could u ask for.

For my part c is Made in Korea
original microphone Body: inf1 in neck and bridge in inf2
wizard neck rosewood fingerboard
24 frets jumbo
combination HH 3 positions

UTILIZATION

RG typical of any weight is very well distributed
handle a bit big next to my Vai but well done sy
the ergonomics of the instrument is so faithful to him even RAS
microphones and inf1 inf 2 couillus but are more saturated than clean.

SOUNDS

for me yes, she is really good!
the violin and mechanisms are of good manufacturing,
j have turned the very edge of one for Vai bsb c is already much better.
I play a Peavey VK212 and a whole bunch of effects patched
to be versatile in 4 vaudrai of dimarz over what ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have already been four months in a typical store Conveter, I bought cash 200 instead of 300 for "rid" the seller of the instrument. suddenly I was able him to "offer" a complete facelift.
I'm in my 5 th ibanez so I know more than well.
damage to the handle of the 320FA a bit thick (as in js 100)
decays very

for the price of j Made in Korea 'was septic, but having spent a jem in Korea (and then resold for a jem japan) i had not been disappointed in, I did this last day elsewhere since.

against by a change of microphones is required, one in D tuning and vibrato turned also, beyond that, c is a very good guitar that was worth every penny.

24 Jumbo frets
2 Ibanez humbuckers
Basswood body
Bolt-on maple
Rosewood
Volume 1 knob
1 knob tone
A 5-way switch
Ibanez Lo Pro Edge tremolo

UTILIZATION

The design of the RG seduced me right away and as always I like
This guitar has a clear varnish that reveals the wood grain, it gives a very authentic look. Moreover, the Japanese firm continues to leave the models in this spirit: the RGT220A example.

In terms of playability, the RG are references and this model is no exception:
The neck is fairly fast, with a rather flat profile. Access to acute is good but not as much as the Ibanez Prestige!
The body is biased to where the arm rests, which adds to the comfort of play
The vibrato is very flexible and effective, dive-bombing all the time fields do not pose a concern, the instrument is the agreement
The average weight allows long hours of practice without too much fatigue.

SOUNDS

To be honest, the original pickups are a little disappointing compared to the quality of the violin. I'm not sure but I think that these pickups and Ibanez INF3 Inf4 (Infinity series), which does not surprise me also because I never liked these pickups!
Well, the Infinity are still work properly and allow for some flexibility.
HH configuration gives a rather round and warm sound, full of psychics and a lot of bass, treble them were down, so it is difficult to get its edge, even in the bridge position with the tone knob 9. Remains to equalize the pay of the amp by boosting the treble.

The grain is fairly "smooth" and "smooth", the microphones seem to lack of attack ... Some will even blame their lack of personality.
These pickups deliver all the same sounds that I find interesting, they lend themselves particularly well to the rhythm as if to have a lot of attack, they have a good dynamic. The report notes that the Dead used to articulate the rhythm is the most beautiful effect. The sweeping sound great with the neck position.

OVERALL OPINION

For quite a while lent by a friend, I had the time to appreciate the instrument.
The impression remained me is pretty good, RG320FA is very comfortable, well balanced, its characteristics can play in many musical repertoires.
A guitar of quality and so versatile, but without going into excellence, especially because of its original pickups just correct.

UTILIZATION

The handle is a handle ibanez, we like it or not, but it's comfortable and fast.
The guitar is well balanced and light enough

SOUNDS

I tested the first guitar with EMG passive pickups, the report was quite balanced and married well with the wood (linden), but after several tests DiMarzio 100%, 100% seymour duncan, I stayed on this configuration: SH-5 in the neck and DiMarzio Steve's Special in bridge. Both pickups are very good, the sounds are excellent, and the two microphones set also makes very good (even very interesting indeed)

OVERALL OPINION

I use the guitar for a year now.
I have his sound, floyd lo-trs, supposedly the worst of ibanez floyd, once properly set is perfect ... very flexible, is very good agreement, nothing to say.
I tried a lot of guitars, RG suit me. But I bought used for 150 €, so ultimately it's a very good choice (NB: I received it with passive EMG)
This is typically the type of scratches that I redeem (as I also bought one) to mount a different tuning and thus not having to move my other guitars.
