yan nga yun bro! i got the chance to play it through a vk112. metal kung metal talaga!

yep very nice guitar, i was actually thinking of buying one pero I hesitated kasi yung brand new price niya medyo malapit na sa prestige line so why not go with prestige diba? just my sentiments though...

Question.

rg2550 with evo bridge and neck for 30k. Good deal?? My friend is selling his. Very well maintained pa..

@ bryan

WOW those USRG's are sweet.. i wish i could have one!

OT: remember my intonation problem with the A string of my RGT? it was temporarily fixed by setting the saddle closest with the pups. i bought new GHS progressives 10s set yesterday and did set up it. it was the string. The A string did go waaaaay sharp coz it was set closest to the pups. now i adjusted it and the intonation is now perfect. so therefore it was the string that has the problem.

and, i needed 4 springs for the 10 gauge to set up the trem..

Dave Bunker still makes em, but you need someone to do the Ibanez USA Custom Logo or you can ask him to do that. i only ask him to do a special price if you mention that i referred you so he gives you 1300 and thats with the lo-pro edge too, maple top(flame or quilted), alder or your choice of body wood, your choice of fretboard wood, choice of neck wood, with matching peghead veneer(or none), with dimarzio pickups body mounted, etc...email him/call

My RGRT47DX just got pimped  :lol: Kuya Lito of Audiophile Pioneer did an amazing job setting it up.



He installed new 500k CTS pots and a new 5-way switch.



I also asked him to install a Tremol-yes  :-D



The Seymour Duncan JB and Jazz are out and my Rockfields dropped right in.



And of course he did the usual truss-rod, action and intonation tweaks.



After a whole year of using D'Addario Super Lights exclusively, I'm now gonna try GHS Progressives just for a different flavor.



I love how the case lining matches the finish  :-D



Overall, the guitar sounds great! There's nothing like playing a very well set-up guitar. This is my first neck-through and I really feel the difference in sustain and girth. I look forward to hearing this baby at stage volume! \m/,
