A great guitar , beautifully crafted in Indonesia. Pick ups : They have good warm tones. Liked the tones of both the bridge and neck pickups. Best thing is the neck PU at full tone pot don't produce any shrillness.Why 4 Star ? I would have given a 5 but reduced a star for the fret polishing work which is good but still not that glossy smooth. I had to use fret polishing techniques to make it smooth and glossy. Its super fast now and I'll get another RG soon :)
