Active mid-cut EQ switch
Gibraltar Standard bridge for increased stability and sustain
UTILIZATION
Nice axe! This guitar has a great playability for this price range, and the balance is quite nice. The active EQ switch is an interesting feature, though I'd prefer to have a traditional tone pot on there as well. Also, the Gibraltar bridge has a great feel to it - no sharp edges to dissuade you from palm muting! Fretwork could have stood up to some more detailed filing, but it was decent.
SOUNDS
This RGA sounds very nice plugged in. The EQ circuit, when activated gives the guitar a neat "scooped" tone, boosting the lows and highs while cutting the mids. This makes a nice, palm-muted metal rhythm tone very easy to achieve, and for solos, one can kick the circuit back off to boost the mids. This is very cool stuff here!
OVERALL OPINION
Metal warriors, rejoice! While it is good enough to be used in many styles, this guitar is a fantastic rhythm or lead guitar for metal. The styling is distinctive enough to stand out, classy enough to be remembered, and functional enough to keep players happy. Recommended.
