1 volume - 1 tone - a 5-way switch.

UTILIZATION

I already knew the reputation of the sleeves Ibanez and I found what I wanted. A flat handle, fine and large, very pleasant and suitable for virtually all styles of music.
The access to the latest boxes are not a problem (it is far from necessary contortions on a Les Paul!).
Ergonomics standard, the guitar is a bit heavy but good, nothing too involved even standing.

SOUNDS

In terms of sounds, again, this RG270R opts for versatility. We just type in jazz, blues, rock, hard, funk and metal with no worries. The pickups lack a bit of fishing but clear sound is really amazing.
With a rather unusual style (a mixture of funk-rock-blues-metal), I found my happiness with a range of its large and varied enough to devote myself to my favorite styles.
However, if I want to type in the hard-heavy and have a heavy sound, I lean more towards my Lag Roxanne. But for the shred I practice regularly, I take the illico Ibanez.
The only downside: the Floyd. At first, I made heavy use and maintenance agreement was far from perfect. Now I calmed down and no problem (indeed, I no longer use the Floyd).

OVERALL OPINION

I use this instrument for over 6-7 years and I am still as pleased. When I can afford it, I just change the pickups to get closer to the new sounds that I am interested now.
This guitar also has a very good price / quality ratio (today, one can find OCCAZ for a pittance).
In short, in short, a very good instrument for beginners and beyond. Of course, this is not a professional instrument but it should satisfy the average user eager to play in different styles.
