Its a great guitar. The con

By: Anonymous Coward

Its a great guitar.

The con to it is the "Fat10" bridge. As the reviewer said "I hope I didn't put it out of tune doing that" when he wiggled it.
Since most people won't be using the tremolo bridge anyway I reccomend putting a piece of wood in through the back to lock it in place, just to keep it from going out of tune.
Once locked, it holds its tuning nicely.

Got one... Pickguard?

By: RG170

I got the RG170 in December and it is awesome. Got it with a MG30DFX Marshall amp and it roars... It is in Jewel blue and i like the finish and don't want to scratch it while playing... Does anyone know where i can get a pickguard?

Pickguard

By: Anonymous Coward

There are no stock pickguards for it. You can buy a blank one and cut holes. A problem could be that it would get too thick.
Also, you'd have to drill holes wich could scratch the guitar much worse.
I would put on a piece of stick-on plastic (clear or with a nice graphic) in the shape of a pickguard on, if you're really afraid of scratching it.
I play without pickguard and haven't scratched it with my pick yet. Wristwatches and jewelry pose more of a threat to the laquer than a piece of soft, rounded tip plastic.

I wouldn't worry about it ;) It doesn't scratch that easy ;) If you really want to keep your guitar in never-removed-from-box state, put it in a glass case and never touch it. ever.

Fat10 Bridge

By: 71charger

I just got this guitar on Ebay- the bridge is not level with the body-I'm thinking I'm missing a spring or maybe need to replace them. Wher do I get the springs? otherwise, how do I make this a hardtail? It sounds great, just want it setup correctly.
Thanks, great review BTW

Springs

By: Anonymous Coward

It has two springs. If the bridge tips down at the back, they're too tight. If it comes up they're too loose.
Put on the right strings and adjust the springs to get the bridge level.
If you're not planning on using the tremolo, just lock it in place with a piece of wood.
