A perfect begginer or intermediate option
Eugene Threeboob 31.12.2022
Just a straight up good guitar, nothing too crazy but also nothing bad, which makes it perfect for someone starting up. The build quality is also very good, as far as i can tell, so this guitar is a great modding platform, and it thus never becomes obsolete, so it can stay with you in the long run. I dont see any real reason to replace it, i might just upgrade the pickups since i now have a more specific sound im looking for. Sounds are also very versatile, although i have heard the pickups are not the best, they are just fine and with a couple of upgrades this thing can become a monster, as it grows with you as a guitar player.

I did have a couple problems though, namely the 2nd string when open would ring out annoyingly, probably was a problem with the nut, dissappeared when i changed strings. Also i feel like the high E slips of the fretboard too easily because theres not much space for you to bend or vibrato or whatever but maybe im just bad.

The finish is fine, as seen in pictures, maybe just 1 or 2 small imperfections here and there but thats to be expected and personally doesn't bother me at all.

This was my first guitar, and as someone who doesn't have any experience other than this, you should take my words with a grain of salt, but i am very satisfied with this guitar, i have had it for about 6 months now, i havent had any serious problems and i can pretty much play anything i want, from like arctic monkeys to gojira.

k
not bad
kram1 18.10.2020
i received the guitar in good conditon, no scratches nor marks, when i check the hardware the knob for the tone and volume was loose. i have to search in youtube on out how to remove them since it does not have screw. the pickup switch also was loose, have to tighten it. the sound was clear after i intonated the 6th string. over all i like it. stays in tune when i did a lot of bending,

Tolle Gitarre mit gutem Sound zum fairen Preis
nek_es 09.01.2022
Ich bin Einsteiger und habe nach einer Gitarre mit möglichst schlankem Hals, Humbuckern und mattem Finish gesucht und bin mit meiner Wahl mehr als zufrieden!

Die Ibanez lässt sich super spielen und war direkt sehr gut eingestellt (Saitenlage war für meinen Geschmack genau richtig). Optisch macht sie auch was her... wobei das matte Finish bei meiner nicht schön aussieht wie auf den Bildern.
Der Sound gefällt mir an meinem Boss Katana 50 MKII und meinem Katana Mini sehr gut. Ich spiele hauptsächlich Clean und Crunch Sound und für meinen Geschmack ist der Sound den die RGA42 erzeugt top. Ich spiele größtenteils im Drop C oder Drop D und bin auch hier sehr zufrieden.

Was mir weniger gut gefällt sind die Mechaniken. Eine Feinjustierung ist mit den Teilen nicht so gut möglich und die Stimmstabilität könnte etwas besser sein (daher nur 3 Sterne bei den Features). Das ist bei der Preisklasse aber meckern auf höherem Niveau.

Insgesamt eine Kaufempfehlung für ambitionierter Einsteiger, die nach einer schönen Gitarre mit tollem Sound zum fairen Preis suchen.
