Ibanez RG470DX-SFM

I was going toget the purple 470 as i loved the colour, but there was a wait for it to arrive. so I opted for the sea foam colour, and im glad i did it sooo nice in this colour. Its quite light as in weight, and sits nice on my leg. the neck is smooth and fast. the pickup sound realy good and each postion is quite a different sound from bridge to neck. I have been using it daily now for about two weeks and still in tune. there were a couple of slight flaws in the paint, pin prick size but that was it. I have an 42fm which I love and play all the time just love this guitar, along with gibson but can say im really, really happy with rg470 and recomend to any one whos in this price range. again I got say I love the colour!

When I first unboxed it, the stock strings definitely needed changing, the frets were a little bit scratchy but nothing too hard to fix with a bit of work, the finish looks stunning! There was a bit of overspray in the tremolo and pickup cavities but you rarely look at that. The intonation and action were pretty solid. The main selling point for me was the Edge Zero tremolo, after a little bit of a setup, it stayed in tune really well. The body contours are really well done and are very comfortable to play. It is a bit heavy but nothing a thicker strap wont fix. The bridge and neck humbuckers are fantastic, no need to change them, the middle pickup is a bit too bright and snappy for me but overall sound is okay.
