The "Rg4exfm1" from Ibanez

My New Toy! The guitar was made in Indonesia and it has 24 frets. The neck is really thin, perfect for playing, with nice maple wood. It's a solid top, the body is basswood and it has a nice flamed maple top finish in either blue or grey transparent gloss. The RG4EXFM1 is equipped with a Floyd Rose style bridge(Edge III) and with the aid of a locking nut, you can divebomb so much without even getting 1 string slightly out of tune. There is a knob for volume, tone and a 5-way selector. The pickups give a nice tone with 2 humbuckers and a single coil in the middle which gives you many choices for the right tone you need, the bridge pickup is an Ibz Inf4, middle Infs3 and Neck Inf3.
I mostly play rock and metal and it is perfect RG's are always perfect for that genre. I don't have an awesome setup, my amp is a little Spider IV 15 Watt it goes pretty loud and I also have a DigiTech RP90 plugged through my amp so I have more than preset settings. This guitar has the perfect sound, I can hear every little move I make when I go down the fretboard, the middle pickup has a nice clean tone and the neck pickup has great pinch-harmonic response. The finish is also immaculate. I am thinking about upgrading pickups to EMG's but overall for $399.99 This is a pretty nice guitar to add to your arsenal.
