R-458MN WH Progressive Series : pretty good

5 years ago

Build quality:

my unit came with excellent fret ends, no sharp edges. with that price point though you might want to polish frets.

Volume pot for my unit is odd. It doesnt do almost anything until you start to reach to the max volume area where it changes drastically with small adjustments.

Tuners are okay i would say.

I think bridge saddle screws could be a bit shorter.

Sound:

lower end can get muddy. otherwise its decent for what the price is. Pickups are not something that you have to immediately swap out.

I didnt have ground noise problems with my unit.

Summary:

I think its a great guitar to get into extended range and see if extended range is for you.
