Already an RG prestige and S prestige owner,
Bought this one since i wanted to refresh my collection with different wood combinations.
The guitar sounds fantastic. Very good tone definition both in bright and warmer pickup.
The pickups themselves are air norton neck and tonezone bridge from Dimarzio. The Air norton is medium output although really good harmonic response. The Tonezone is a bit higher output and one of the brightest pups. Use it with some overdrive pedal infront of a crunch channel amp and it SCREAMS.
U can basically play from mellow jazz sounds to djent riffing!
Not to mention the ingenious split coil with the 5way switch.
Using the coils adds such twang and precussive response, it basically turns into a strat.
Be careful with ur primary setup. Take it to a tech!!!
I thought the bridge was broken cus i couldnt adjust the height. But!!! It has screws INSIDE the studs which u loosen and then adjust the studs height!
Also, if u may find ur low or high he closer to the fretboard edge than preferred, just remove the 4 screws that hold the body with the neck and tilt the neck in the pocket a bit (as desired), just screw it on and u re done!
Perfect insturment!
