  • Hey there guys, davi90rtcb here!
    Took me quite a bit to get this done but I must say it, I'm pretty proud about it.
    In my opinion the big differences are in the neck and in the playability but if you have one different from mine, don't be afraid to let me know in the comments below.
    I'll see you all very soon with new contents
    Much love,
    Davi

    Which one do you recommend more, GRG121dx or GRX70qa?
    What attracts me to the GRG is the fixed bridge, since it is what suits me best now, I don't know what you think about it and whether it is fixed or not makes much difference and I would like to hear your opinion

    • @davi90rtcb
      @davi90rtcb  8 місяців тому +2

      Hello dude,
      I'm more for the fixed bridges myself. Never been a great fan of the Floyd Rose bridges.
      About the the two guitars, is a tough call: the playability and the neck are super good on both sides but I enjoyed a little more the GRX under these aspects.
      For the sounds, they both have 5 positions so you can have a lot of possibilities to try.
      I wish I could do more.

      This has resolved some doubts for me and I think I'll opt for the GRG, I also prefer fixed bridges and I see that both guitars are good options, I don't even use the tremolo that much.
      It is true that the sound of the GRX is a little less dull but the difference is not much and it is something that has a solution.
      I don't have much of a budget and these guitars are a good value for money and I think the GIO series are pretty good for beginners

      I'll try make it short: Cort and Jackson are super good if you want to metal, but the grx70 can get you a lot of versatility and I love how smooth the playability is.
      It's kinda hard to tell you what's the best. Think of the genre you want to play, this might help.

      Not the best playability but if you want to get some good heavy riffs, it is certainly a good choice.

Which one do you think I should get it ? I get first time good budget ( for my wallet) price guitar and I dont want to make mistake lol.

I can afford to buy that guitar what you told me GRG131dx (black and red) but theres black one IBANEZ GRGR131EX-BKF what I really like to looks about that. Do you think they're different? or just colours?

    Ti aggiorno Davi: arrivata HB St-20HH Active
    Molto più gain della Pacifica, ma molto davvero. Però almeno nel mio esemplare PU al manico inutilizzabile: suono cupissimo e sporchissimo, praticamente un disturbo ronzante sotto il quale c'è nascosta (quasi inudibile) la canzone che suono. Non so se è guasto o se è perché sta un po più vicino alle corde del PU al ponte (un filo più basso)... boh, tu che ne pensi?
    Comunque un altro pianeta rispetto alla Yamaha, ed anche un minimo più leggera. Manca il Pot del tono

    • @davi90rtcb
      @davi90rtcb  Рік тому

      Ciao Fury,
      mamma mia, i modelli economici con PU attivi dell'Harley Benton danno un sacco di problemi. Infatti ci sono parecchi recensioni a riguardo.
      Per quanto riguarda il PU al manico, può essere che qualcosa non sia attaccato bene. Una volta mi è arrivata una chitarra che non suonava per niente.
      Per fortuna era solo una sciocchezza dove s'infila il jack ma se non sei capace, occhio a toccare.
      Con I PU attivi, a me entrava dentro il metronomo XD. Quando finivo il riff i PU prendevano i "tic" del metronomo. Ho dovuto abbassare il volume del metronomo.
      Comunque se ti piacciono le Benton, ho una sorpresa per te, ma te la mostro nei prossimi giorni ;-)

      @Davi90RTCB
      Aspetto la tua sorpresa! ^_^ Sei un grandissimo, il mio youtuber chitarrista preferito credimi ♡
      Non so se restituire questa: a parte che mi è arrivata piena di graffi sul battipenna e con alcune parti con colore sbiadito (NON era b-stock), ho paura che di colpo smetta di funzionare il PU al ponte dopo i 30 giorni di tempo che ho per restituirla se la qualità è questa
      D'altro canto, visto che sono sfigato peggio di Fantozzi, temo che il modello in sostituzione mi arrivi anche peggio di questo. Per carità io non suono coi PU al manico, era solo per addolcire qualche brano che va suonato meno graffiante
      Comunque per 149 euro (prima ne costava 129) davvero una bomba. È vero che non ho mai suonato Ibanez o Cort o Jackson, ma il gain è davvero buono nonostante il mio piccolo Valeton gp 100 sia notoriamente più floscio di concorrenti come ad esempio il Nux Mg 300
      Altra cosa che mi è piaciuta sono le corde: nella yamaha anche da nuove tremavano pochissimo su se stesse. Durette. Queste dell' HB sembrano invece quasi degli elastici di gomma, una goduria assurda!

      Ad ogni modo mi sembra strano che ti sia arrivata con tutti questi difetti. Per carità, anche quelle che ho ordinato io non erano perfette, ma si trattava di piccole imprecisioni estetiche.
      Comunque ti dico; se tiene l'accordatura, se non "bazza" qua e là per la tastiera, se pensi che il suono ti soddisfa, ti direi di tenerla.

      Te l'ho detto che sono più sfigato di Fantozzi...
      L'accordatura per me è un concetto etereo: tiro o rilascio le corde finché non danno il suono che cerco XD Comunque si il suono è abbastanza cattivo. Non come quello che esce a voi con i vari Bias, Amplitube, ML Sound Lab... ma per ora mi accontento, visto che è comunque fico almeno il doppio di quello della Yamaha
      Assieme alla chitarra ho preso 2 pedali sempre HB: Extreme Metal e British True Tone. Quest'ultimo non è che un overdrive che di Marshall non dà una fava, mentre Extreme Metal aggiunge solo mezzo capello di cattiveria. Credo torneranno indietro entrambi
      Comunque per me resti il migliore: non sarai il più bravo a suonare? Non farai video complessi? Fa nulla: sei simpatico, vai dritto al punto, non te la credi come altri, e soprattutto non "falsi" i tuoi video. Voglio dire che certi prima registrano ciò che suonano, poi lo stra-abbelliscono con le loro rosse schede audio e software vari, e poi ti dicono: "Ecco, questa chitarra / questo amplificatore / questa multieffetto suonano così divinamente come le sentite". Poi compri e ti trovi in mano roba che suona come un'ape in cerca del bagno
