Value For Money : Excellent
Guitar Original Coren.
-Body and neck Basswood amricain.
Driver Channel 24 boxes, rosewood fingerboard mdium frt.
-2 Humbuckers (infinity infinity 1 & 2).
Bridge-Lo-Pro Edge Floyd Rose licensed 2.
-2 Knobs (1 volume, 1 Tone) slecteur 5 positions with 2 positions for splittages doubles.
I put 9 for violin and finishing.

UTILIZATION

Channel trs enjoyable, quick with a sharp Easy Access in boxes until dernires
Ergonomics-not bad. For my part, I did it changed (I had a luthier dplac potientiomtre the volume between the switch and potentiometer Tone) because many manufacturers forget that guitarists have a hand right and that to the APRS dport orders floyd would be better and less Gnant Vitantis while lowering the sound playing (thank you Gibson). To form, has a RG is, we like it or not ... The lines are stratodes agrssives and prominent.
- GTA-42 is a guitar well proportioned and not too heavy.
-The sound palette offered by the original pickups and 5-position switch makes a guitar that show a home in many musical styles, but a pair of EMG will haisment Justice's image and its use of guitar oriented "big sound".

SOUNDS

-It is perfect for my style of music, mtal-hardcore.
-I made Fully modified (a real Lo Pro Edge, potentiometer, 2 EMG 81) and is plugged into a Peavey 6505, an MXR equalizer MR108, MXR Smart Gate and. It is clear that the instrument has got nothing to do with the factory. The sound is bold, sharp and prcis (EMG thank you) and thanks to Lo Pro Edge, the tuning remains despite the use prcis. Generated by the sustain driver gnial the handle.
-The sound in this configuration is much better than the original pickups.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it now for 5 years.
-Obviously I bought this guitar for my crush on her violin. In addition, it is a finish and color irrprochable Black Pearl (BP o) of the most beautiful effect. I love the look agrssif, but at the same time class. I found the Ibanez RGT-42 Chanon missing between the production Coren and Japanese production, because before I had an RG 320 (entry-level PCs) and I RG tried many Japanese.
-If you try to customize a guitar like me, this is a good base level violin trs. As for ergonomics, encastillages and electronics, has still a bit lightweight. Good quality price.
-I will not go without this choice has hsiter cause any changes (the overall opration s'lve all of the same for a 1400 guitar, floyd, microphones and instrument maker) . But hey, it allows me to final rcuprer a personal guitar trs I love and finally fixes all the default ...
I put 9.5 for the mine with the changes and 6.5 for the model plant.
