Note that the version I have is the version and not ms cr (it seems that only the color change)

Made in Indonesia
24 frets
Pickups: 2 Dual-Rail and a Dual-Rail
Floyd Rose Licensed.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very agrébale. Access to acute is not impossible but does not seem natural at first. After a few weeks, there was more trouble odds there.


Ergonomics at RAS, the shape is nice as sitting and standing, the guitar is not too heavy.
It gets very easily sound good (at least we think so, I will return) and this may be thanks to the possibility of setting multiple microphones.

SOUNDS

It is entirely appropriate to the style that I wanted to do with.
I play a Fender Rumble 100 which is connected a Digitech RPX 400.
For metal I have a jackson js30 that sounds very good and the striker did not equal in this area.
Edit May 23, 2009: Now that I'm starting to know the beast I took time for me to create a sound measure for this one and if accuracy level, it never reaches the microphones or jackson emg BUT quad rail palient this problem, because we can afford to lower the gain considerable thanks to its micro and keep a potato Surprisingly spite of everything. It is therefore a compromise sound very powerful but very interesting for the specific or heavy trash. (Position micro quad rail bridge. Worries, however, is the tendency to have a sound mushy but in the bad sense, over time it becomes very heavy as it looks to find the problem of precision micro malgrès Hours of adjustments already made.
The micro dual rail environment only serves to virtually nothing (output level too low, the product without character, bland, cold)
I find the sound of the quad rail handle only a little extreme, hence the interest of the quad rail spliter for the tone of a humbucker.
Other SPLIT position does not in my interest, we lose the gain, power gain without vraimment accuracy. On my setup I'm using does not (see it on an amp lamp)

For clean sounds, it will drip pan at the beginning rather pleased with her (and yes, compared to my Jackson Randhy Road, clear sound better is a little normal), I quickly found the sound bland and I always had to add some effects to fill a little of that and give him a little coconut. Today, I changed it to a Fender Stratocaster Mex and this is another dimension!

OVERALL OPINION

I used it a year and a half .... Finally, she spent a year and a half home but after three months I did not use it much anymore, it does not please me.
I tried different sets of ibanez rg, she had the advantage of well concurencer in style Rock / metal sound offering less cartoonish in its clear, but it is valid only for entry-level series rg course.
The value for money on the internet is pretty good, even very good (233 thotho for version 1 2 dual quad but the quad as the only bridge providing credible possibilities is sufficient). If you are looking for a metal scraper typed and you have a small budget, it will provide a much better option than a BC Rich or entry LTD. if you have 100 more per eruos cons, prefer Jackson JS 30 according to me. So it's a pretty good guitar with a relatively neat finish for the price, but it's not a guitar that you keep all your life.
I had paid dear enough at the time (360 euros new) so no I will not go with that choice, revenche for 233 € on the net is very Honet!
