UTILIZATION
The handle is not pleasant, it is simply amazing! There's no point in trying to describe it must be tested!
Ibanez RG Cup, access to acute is perfect, same for the ergonomics
In terms of sound, this guitar is very special ....
SOUNDS
I am crazy about this guitar architecture:
1 - the look (although I hated before) ... ah c reverse the head is far too rare unfortunately Ibanez
2 - the ease of playing, we are in Ibanez RG Series, Series "prestige" ... the handle is a German motorway (no speed limit: D)
BUT! 3 - this guitar is definitely not made for metal, it has a relatively acute grain. to test for the blues-rock or funk, to metal I'll test a SH4 Seymour (white) ... Paul Gilbert plays very little about its own model in heavy saturation (RacerX among others)
OVERALL OPINION
I have this guitar for 3 ½ years, I love this look, simple but so charismatic (black and white gills +).
Tried again at Musikmesse 4 years ago, guitar light fittings simple.
Quality / price ratio: a well equipped luxury model, the perfect violin to shred for a very reasonable price, with a look that is unlike any other.
I would do the choice is obvious (I am always moved by opening its case "/>) But I tested another configuration of microphones before (at least for metal)
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Update of 13/01/2010:</span> With great distance today, including the use of a Seymour Duncan SH4 Jeff Beck in bridge for a few months, it is a mistake to change the pickups on this guitar, the configuration of the microphones Original gives as much as the beautiful soul beautiful black on white gills. After 5 years of use is still my favorite of my 5 guitars, a treat being passed to the amplificaiton any lamp.
This guitar has a sound and a look all its own ... and that's why I like it <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" /> !
