    1 year in with it and i love it!
    I am about to switch pickups for EMG's 81/85. Your video made me buy it and it's excellent for my first guitar.
    I think i will upgrade to a more expensive one in a year or so, but for a beginner like me this was an excellent choice.
    Thanks!

      @@Roomy_21 well if you dont use tremolo and play with different tunes, go for it. definitely cheaper, more versatile, good Quantum pickups. (my another guitar is RG350dx with INF pickups, and its so metal). with fender champion amp, zoom multieffect and neck pickup, i can get that fenderisque tone :D

It plays so well und the satinneck feels insane! the picks are perfect for metal and rock, i prefer blues and hardrock and it also works with so many more styles. i just wish ibanez would have used lockings and a graph nut. i would pay these maybe 40 - 50 bucks more. then it would be just perfect! great demo, thy dude

    Hey man, gotta give it to you, awesome review. I bought the same guitar after your review. I have some questions, is what you're playing a song or just something you came up with for the review? If it's yours then what did you use to create that metal mix? Also, what's that compression you mention at some point? and lastly, are you on standard tuning or otherwise? thanks in advance :)

    • @FracturesInTheSky
      @FracturesInTheSky  7 лет назад +1

      Thank you! Have fun with the guitar. :)
      The song is something which I came up with for this review, however I have used it in another more recent review as it covers all the main tones which I'd want to hear in a review. If I remember correctly, I used drop D for this song.
      I can't remember exactly what I used to mix it. If its any use, I could do a video at some point explaining it if that would be useful?

I am gonna use it at home and I only need heavy distortion sound, with no any other effects or with minimum of them. I found Marshall Mg15cf, but i am not sure if it's really good.

    Right, so I'm at a loss for what to do. I have £350 to find a guitar that will be easy to mix with. I currently have a shitty £100 discontinued Flying V from an obscure company and no matter how much EQing, compression, or mixing I do, it sounds like complete trash lmao.
    I'm trying to decide between this guitar and the Schecter Omen 6. Can you honestly say that this guitar is worth the price?

    • @FracturesInTheSky
      @FracturesInTheSky  7 лет назад +1

      Pulse/Krilium From my experience. You can't go wrong with this guitar. It's 100% worth the money and I personally have not found any downsides to it. Playability wise it plays like a dream and the sound I really like. If you have any questions. Please reply to this and I'll get back to you

    • @nemesis44uk
      @nemesis44uk 6 лет назад +1

      Pulse/Krilium - I can't speak for the Schecter Omen as I haven't tried it, but I can say that the RG421 is a great guitar to play. I have one in white and it feels very easy to play. Build quality is excellent and although lots of people change the pups, I love the Quantums as there is so much tonal variety. Your budget of £350 is enough to buy the RG in weathered black (£249), white (£275) or flat black (£299) and still have change for an overdrive pedal. (All prices from Andertons).

    • @BDaMonkey
      @BDaMonkey 6 лет назад
