UTILIZATION

The handle is great, it slides very easily and we reached the 24th box without any problems (it is a RG neck after all). light for metalheads it's nice to be able to move with his guitar and to pose that you desire, I got it in hand very quickly. joncton the body and neck under the strings trversantes provides a very good sustain.
inverted head of the guitar makes it even more attractive.
I tried it on a marshall amp and a randall RH200 MG100DFX, well the sound makes you immediately hooked on the RG. its unique micro bridge delivers a powerful, sharp, precise and an incredible punch, whatever the two amps and yet is a great difference between the combo and head home marshall randall home. I tested it in drop d, drop c, drop b and it still retains an incredible aggressiveness and an accuracy, a change is needed when pulling down but even with his original draft bourrine it already, and this without any change in the height of the strings that are neither too high nor too low. in rhythm or solo is still at ease.

SOUNDS

A killing that RG I already have an ltd ex-400 equipped with EMG active and above all a much better violin, and although I am of the stomach made its unique micro seymour duncan blackout, it sounds angrier, edgier, more sharp as a emg 81 while maintaining the accuracies and the silence of CLEU it. by returning to my active EMG I did not find the punch and power in the midrange and treble that comes from the Semour duncan (for those who hate the sounds and screaming out the Seymour Duncan is very well proportioned one feels that his screams but do not get high the ears). his favorite is of course the metal (the microphone is also used by the scratch of DIMMU BORGIR, SLIPKNOT, and DIVINE HERESY). an amazing surprise for me as a fan of EMG.

OVERALL OPINION

I had recently, a limited edition of 2008, I was looking for one second scraper and finally she ends up as my main guitar (I already had one that restates ltd ex-400 with EMG 81 and 60), I have commanded a view after it was equipped with a Seymour Duncan Blackout active and at an affordable price.
bought out of curiosity I remained speechless in front of the power that delivers what micro and changed my opinion mostly on the mark seymour duncan who made the microphone killer for all the fans of hardcore metal, thrash, death, .. .
It is worth visiting for its price 300-400 €, offering a guitar like this at this price is a good gift we made for this IBANEZ 2008.
you're a fan of RG and wanted a killer sound for a low price, well it is for you, at least I sure I repeat the eyes closed.
