FINEFUZZ Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) My first electric guitar was a Jetking 2, which I still have, but obviously this is no comparison. I must say, this guitar stays wonderfully in tune and the super wizard neck is simply sensual. This finish is definitively not resilient, (hard to determine without handling it prior to purchase) but that is the nature of this type of finish I suppose. Oh, and that single coil with the split humbucker setting is pure delight. I have been on the fence with purchasing an Ibanez rg652ahm for the last year without the (crowded/ obnoxious?) single coil position, but these are the tones I am finding the most pleasant.

Bjorn.LaSanche Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Damn that’s pretty. I just got done setting up the exact same model but in black. Sweet guitar, but I’m a stickler for old Square Heel RGs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FINEFUZZ Posted May 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 I picked it especially for the grain showing through. Unfortunately the clear is ultra-thin and I have worn through to the raw wood on some of the sharp edges. The wear will look cool over time, I guess.
