So guys, if you are intereseted in this guitar, I'm gonna give you some extra info! Mine is tuned in drop C and I did some upgrades I got Gotoh Locking tuners (this upgrade is really simple) - In my experience this is a must! I replaced the bridge with a Hipshot bridge (I had to drill a little just to make the holes bigger but other than that it was an easy installation) Now, even though the pickups are okay, I replaced them with EMG 81-85 active pickups! it is important to understand that there's not a lot of room for active pickups in this guitar, so I paid a tech to do the job and it all was excelent! however, keep in mind that this upgrade is not really needed, but for me the stock pickups are a little too crispy so that's why I did this. If you wanna replace the stock pickups too, then go for passive ones, it's a lot easier. I did nothing to the nut, I like the stock one.
I have the RGA42EXBAM and only had 2 complaints. Pickups have almost zero sustain, and the frets were filed a little too much, so the high E slides off the board pretty easily. I want to do the locking tuners, bridge, and new pickups really bad, but i don't trust myself
I've had mine, in blue, for about three years and it's perfect as is. I gotta make a new video soon with it. I'll approach this next one with more chug in mind. Great video.
Thanks for posting this video, it is really helpful. I am considering to buy this guitar however I have a question. Does it have neck dive while playing in siting position?
Best review of this... especially the first part where you flew all over the guitar to show the dimensions and it's string height and all......thanks
thank you! :)
Yep
Just got the black one yesterday….floored by the quality, set up, and tone.

You could have skipped the whole pickup swap by using the tone knob, lol.
