R-457MN WH Fanfret : Incredibly good product for the money

6 years ago

Now, here's the thing, my review WILL differ quite significantly from others. I guess I won the part lottery.

Plays good in my opinion. Frets were way too sharp so I filed them down just a bit and they were fine. They are a bit tall, but nothing unfixable.

Sounds very good. I use BIAS FX 2 as my amp sim, and it sounds amazing.

The electronics could use a bit more work, as the volume knobs can rotate too much and over 100% for some reason. The pickups I like.

Tuning is stable enough. It doesn't wave too much out of tune, however do tighten the screws on the tuners, as there is going to be some space for you to rotate before the machine head actually starts turning the string.

All in all, love it. Just fix these tiny things.
