« Ibanez RG570 »
Published on 11/16/02 at 15:00I bought it in a music shop in Glasgow, cant remember the name, i tried a few guitars (epiphone les paul, strat, fender 7-string and a bc rich ironbird) I t said £450 but i got it and a pedal for that price.
It is the sturdiest guitar ever, it comes with high gauge strings and double twin humbuckers and one single coil, when selected it is heavy as hell, in case your wondering KoRns signature guitars (the K7) are pure RG series and this is nearly as good. The neck and tremolo should be an industry standard, they are amazing, the output is huge and when i put it through my mesa boogie with a ibanez distortion pedal and delay it gives me koRn quality every time, the neck is so easy to use it improved my playing.
Not really a problem for me but for someone with small hands teh jumbo frets may be too much to handle, sometimes it is TOO heavy and the output blurs into one big mess but only occasionally, and if you have a second guitarist in your band this guitar completley wips out their sound.
Hard as nails, drop it and it just gets back up and bites your ass. Its very chunky and quite heavy but not un comfortable, overall its the sturdiest guitar i ahve played.
Overall if you want heavy THIS is THE guitar, it gives a low down CRUNCH and snaps at the audience its a god among guitars.
