Beautiful quilted maple top on mahogany body. Active pickups and EQ. Gibraltar standard bridge.
Overview
The RGA archtop guitar not only has hot curves but playability. For live performance, its lightweight body gives players more freedom to prowl around stage. The arched top also lets players to knock down heavy riffs and power chords without hitting the guitar body. All told, curved beauty and great performance combine gracefully and powerfully in the RGA.

- Equipped with fat and strong active Ibanez LoZ3 pickups

"Awesome Guitar - Awesome Price"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I actually sold a USA Peavey HP special, and bought this. This guitar has better action, looks as good. The pups's aren't as good, but for 1/3rd the cost, whose complaining! This guitar suits me well. I can play lots of different styles, and it doesn't let me down. Just a fun guitar to play.
Sound
Pretty impressive output from these active pup's. Not EMG output, but for stock, they're good.
Features
No tone control. Just a pup selector, volume, and a switch, that scoops the mids. It's actually pretty effective.
Ease of Use
It's got a wizard II neck. So you can shred easily, but also puts out great blues tones when wanted. Guitar actually came pretty well set up. Just a little buzz on the G, that was easily remedied.
Quality
All in all, this a a really pretty guitar. The pic's don't do it justice. They're are a couple of niggles with how the binding ends at the neck, but I'm really picky. In fact I didn't notice for almost a week.
Value
They beat a real low offer from another company, gotta love it! On top of that, Ibanez is offering a free case as well(not a gig bag).

Can't comment on this at this time.
The Wow Factor
This is a sexy looking, well constructed instrument. Fast action, well done frets, great inlays, the quilted maple is killer. The pic's don't do it justice.
