I don't worry much about my guitar's intonation since di naman ako papalit palit ng gauge ng string, I only stick with 9's.

OT: Dude, astig nung demo na ginawa mo para dun sa shredhead ni markv, binookmark ko nga eh, anyway gusto ko siya pag-aralan for trip trip lang, may tabs and record of the backing track ka? Tinatamad akong kumapa eh.. PM mo nalang ako, haha.

haha! salamat! alright. PM na lang kita.

Alright! Apir! 

Para sakin baligtad naman. Mas nahihirapan ako i-setup ang fixed bridge kesa sa may double locking trem. Bukod sa intonation adjustment, kailangan rin kasi ng truss rod adjustment ng fixed bridge kapag nagpalit ka ng string gauge at tuning. Hindi gaya sa floating trem, nako-compensate kasi kahit papano ng spring sa likod yun pagpalit ng gauge at tuning. I can intonate a guitar all day, wag mo lang papagalaw yun truss rod. Takot ako. 

i dont think nakokompensate ang angle ng neck with the floating trem.

Mga sir, anu pong model ng RG yung parang strat ang itsura? Naka floyd rose siya, HSH setting, and naka Chrome pickguard siya.

Another thing, uhm I need suggestions kasi, what particular model would you suggest if I want a guitar with a fixed bridge and good pickups, HSH setting if possible, nalilito na kasi ako sa dami ng RG models.

Thanks

try checking the RT series ng ibanez. yun talagang mukang strat.

kung nakabow talaga yun neck, of course hindi talaga. pero kung minor lang, IMO, pwede kasi nababalance naman ng springs yun tension ng strings sa neck.

[Xelly]

Artcore user ako mga sir!! Kaya ako kumuha nun kasi magaan!!!
Problema ko lang bumabagsak yung neck kasi magaan yung body!!!

may katanungan sa isip ko   

bakit ba mas trip ng mga PRO or ng mga veterano na sa ibanez guitar ang mga edge, lo pro edge, edge pro compare sa mga ZR trem??

before gamit ko ZR (2003) madaling i-tono, stays in tune kahit maputulan ng isang string, pwede akong magdrop D sa 6th string nang hindi affected ang ibang strings or kailanganin pang luwagan ang nut clamp.

Ngayon gamit ko Edge pro, mahirap itono, pag nagdrop ka kailangan luwagan ang nut clamp at i-itono mo ulit ang ibang strings mo, which is matagal ulit

pero ang mga high end ibanez guitars na PGM, JEM at JS mga naka knife edge type na bridge

newbie lang po sa Ibanez

I think dahil sa durability nung earlier trem models. Sabi kasi ng iba, madaling mabasag yung pinapasukan ng trembar sa ZR kapag wild ka gumamit (mala-Vai, etc.)

Yep that's true. Durability talaga ang issue ng ZR trem.

[IPGTR]

^basag din yung sa kaibigan ko. S series yung gitara niya.

[fourth_cycle]

i use cheaper strings than what you use..what brand of strings you use doesnt matter as long as they are decent

@bry hingi naman dyan ng review mo nito!!lalo na kapag nasa floyd guitar kapag gamit mo yan!!

[Red_Strat]

Even if I was gassing for an S570, I was so skeptical to get one because of that known issue regarding the ZR trem.. even if I have no plans of being a wild trem user.

...so I bought a fixed-bridged Ibanez instead. 

Btw, the SV5470F Prestige is PURE GAS!

total beauty = total gas!

they are good for what you pay for. i'd rather buy these than d'addarios any day. these feel organic but if you want that elixir type coated feel use MusiciansGear strings they feel the same out of the box, these d'arco by martin is what i like, nothing else..not because they are $1.49 a set but they work well for my guitars even my suhr

this is a different story man, its quality..if i was a 'thin' guy i'd want this guitar.. LOL

Decided to change the look of my Ibby RT150, im going for the classic look with chrome hardware and all alnico pickups, why im at it i just like to show the good craft of the old ibbys

alder body



quarter-sawn maple neck



with brass insert(instead of wood)



here it is waiting for the new pups(artec giovanni & bezdez $9 alnico single coil), after being polished with turtlewax(body only)



the switch is a fender style 5 way switch(4 opposing poles) instead of the inline poles(no sonic/tone difference really, its just my thing now)


it has a push/pull tone pot for a plan to use a guthrie govan type switching on this(hopefully i get a response from dimarzio how to do it with a standard switch by means of jumper wires)

wilkinson vintage style trem, push-in trem arm



look how big that trem block is



headstock wax and shine with meguiars(has alittle coating to it..i like!)



ofcourse got to have sung-il locking tuners(direct drop in replacement)



while i did this, i changed my j.customs strings(d'arco by martin strings)





for a pretty thing, i dont know why it gets hated so much by that other forumite

wow nice guitar sir, san mo nascore and how much?
ako walang ibanez, just admiring their beauty lang

anyway umm what I meant was para sa inyo, ok ba looks? hehe and some other stuff in this guitar like the bridge, ok ba?

Ganda naman ng fixed bridge ibanez mo, sana magkaganyan din ako   rga121 tama ba?

GAS...

[Red_Strat]

Thanks! Binili ko sa tropa ko for less than 30k.

Regarding the RG1451, hindi ko masyadong trip ang looks niya. Reminds me of a Gio sa totoo lang.
IMO lang, mas maganda yung RG1421F:
