I don't think that Ibanez is any good by the way. The slipknot guy should do himself a faviour and don't buy a guitar with fake-Floyd at his first guitar.

well for a first guitar, I don't think it sounds too bad, plus it has a floyd that works (ok, so its a crappy korean made floyd, it does stay in tune pretty decent)

it's allways better then a squier or something, for the money IMO Ibanez has decent beginner guitars.

Slipknot doesn't use the trem much anyways though. If its not your first guitar, save up for something better, live with your warlock for a while and save cash to get yourself something really decent.

Since we are talking about ibanez and i dont want to make a new post, I can get myself A ibanez RGT42 for only 300, but its missing the trem bar..Should i got for it, is it worth it?? Nothing is wrong with it, and its in working order..

seems like a great deal, if the only prob is the trem bar.

get an original edge trem or original floyd rose in there and you're set. RGT's are pretty darn kickass. nice smooth neckthru too, I loved them.

a new trem and installation will prolly set you back another 100+ but it still sounds like a good deal, they're around 7-900 bucks here new.

Well he didnt say it was the edge pro II, he just said it had an EDGE trem on it, dont know which...

Here are some pics of it.

don't mind him. haha.

serious, sounds like a great deal.

I've been playing a banged up RG750 for a while now, it's pre '90's and it has a great Edge trem, stays in tune excellent and it sounds hot plus it still plays like a dream. one guitar I won't get rid of, even after I get my custom Ran!!

I don't know if the original trem cavity allows for a OFR to be installed, but I bet you can order Ibanez parts too, expect them to be expensive though. (maybe call an ibanez distributor and ask how much a trem is?)

Yes its quite nice for the money. And heres an advice, dont start rantin about how good you think Slipknot is and dont go crazy and use lots of exclamation marks, write OMG I HATE YOU FVKIN F4g075!!! if we dont agree with you or any other dumb stuff. You will get banned if you do this.

LMFAO I remember that guy

Tge guitar kicks ass and if you pop a JB in the bridge its almost as good as some of the higher end models.

you mean body shape? model wtf you talking about. To put it in pretty words for you Epiphone is just an overseas cheaper material outsourced guitar manufacturer, its owned by gibson, and its just cheap versions of gibsons made by slant eyes. Same with Fender and Squier, and more or less kinda the same with carvin and jackson, except some carvins can be very nice, but same with epiphones, some can be very nice. But yea that guy was a fucking idiot cause whoever says epiphones are the best are retarted because gibson is better period. He also stated that strats suck, he is fucking retarded, maybe squier strats but not fender.

A good strat can be nice, but their not realy build for metal.

Thats the whole point with advertisments and sales websites. They can make you think a polished turd sounds good before you even heard it.

Def

2004-12-07, 14:05

pretty much anything above a rg270 is decent. they just start to change up with wood, pickups and hardware. ive had from a rg470, 2 rg550s, rg565(liked that one alot) jem and a usrg30(usa custom) and they were all good guitars, just some better than others.
exactly, I have an RG750 from the pre-90's and it just plain out rocks, definetly my favorite RG model, its in the range where the prestige is now (Paul Gilbert played 750's) they have dimarzio pickups, great woods, nice inlays, original edge trem, quality hardware and tone. It's pretty much battle scarred right now but it still plays like a dream, even after 15 years of active duty!

Def

2004-12-07, 16:17

I've played vipers, they're pretty damn good guitars for the money. The versions with the EMG 81's are the way to go, obviously. I played the viper 1000 only, so I don't know how the lower end vipers compare, the glued in neck is pretty nice, it gives the guitar good sustain and the body is more comfortable then a regular SG body.

Ibanez do good guitars, i have a rgt42 and i think it is better and cheaper than a M-II or a SL3

Slabbefusk

2004-12-08, 07:23

Yeah I've tried that one but I bought the 2620QM instead because it had a better trem, better pickups and so on, it was actually cheaper than the RGT42.

[Nocturno_Culto]

2004-12-08, 08:33

The rgt has all i want, edege pro tremolo (the best) two humbuckers (im going to install an EMG-81 :D) and neck-thru body, for me, it is perfect

Slabbefusk

2004-12-08, 09:28

It has the edge pro II, my friend, which is not the best.

Ozzuk

2004-12-08, 10:35

The Edge pro II is not as good as the Original Floyd, Schaller Floyd, EDGE Lo Pro Edge, or Edge pro.

It's made from cheaper metals, and is more likely to break or be less stable, but if you like it thats great.

And whoever compared the RGT42 to a Jackson SL or ESP M-II, it might be better value than these two, allthough the M-II is reasonably priced, it won't be as good as these in build quality tbh, unless you have personally owned each guitar for more than a yea, and found the RGT42 to be better?
and to the person who asked yes the RG 370 is a good guitar for the money, but i'd prefer something else but thats me also look into the jackson DXMG.

Ozz

[Nocturno_Culto]

2004-12-08, 11:24

Thanks for the aclaration of the bridge. :D

About what i said of M-II and SL3 is because models did for europe are lower quality than the same model to US market (for example), If you go to the oficial ESP page and see the M-II specifications (my english is very bad, sorry) you can see that in pick-ups it has two seymour duncan (JB and JAzz i think) and its price is 1600€ more or less, but this is wrong in the way that this model is for USA, the european model is same price but it hasn't got seymour duncan pick ups, it has esp pick ups, but i dont think this pick ups can be so good as a JB, so you are paying more money that you have to.
In jackson it is the same, you think you are buying a guitar, but you just buy a TRADEMARK, I dont think a good guitar must have 1000, 2000 or 3000€ but i dont want to pay more money just to have "a jackson" (I know it because i wanted to buy a M-II or a SL3 and I tried them)
For this I say that rgt is a better guitar, because its sound is similar and its price is more reasonable
