"great guitar for good price"
Feature:this guitar came with the accesories it needed. basically it came with the tremlo bar and some other tools. the most useful feature i think is the floyd rose tremlo just because it is so much easier to put the guitar into drop d, c, etc.
Quality:
made pretty well. the neck is pretty hard core. i doubt anything will break anytime soon. only thing i have to worry about is normal wear and tear.
Value:
it is worth its selling price. compared to other guitars this is a good buy. considering it is better than some les pauls i would say its worth the money
Desirability:
really nice finish on it. looks great under certain light colors.
Sound:
i like the sound of this guitar alot. for standard pick ups they sound pretty good. i think more people would buy this if it had dimarzios or seymour duncans on it though.
Ease of Use:
its actually pretty easy to get great sounds out of it. at first it sounded pretty bad but once i got used to it i knew how to make it put out great sounds.
Support:
i havent had to deal with customer support.
Overall:
ill keep it for about 9 years or less and probably by a standard faded les paul with 50's neck in tobacco burst.

"Great guitar for the money...but lacking a few bells and whistles."
Feature:It came with an Ibanez Floyd Rose knock off instead of an offical Liscensed Floyd Rose double locking tremelo. I would liked to see a real Floyd on a guitar of that caliber. The RG 321, 350, 570, and 770 all come with it....
Quality:
It seems to be tried and true. The cheap tremelo is the only real complaint with it. I like the tremelo arm a lot. It doesn't fall down at all.
Desirability:
The RG 350 has awsome shark fin inlays...It cost about $300. The RG 1570, that costs up to almost $800 has lame dot inlays....What's up with that?????
Sound:
It think the sound is great for the price! I got mine used at Guitar Center for $399 and is worth every penny! I was a bit dissapointed that it didn't come with a real Floyd Rose Liscensed, but an Ibanez double locking tremelo. It sounds good and plays well, but I have played on guitars with more sustain before. I teach a guitar class and I have a student with a Gio 7 string, one with an RG 570, and one with an RG 321. They all pretty much sound the same, but mine seems to be the easiest to play. I am happy with it overall!
Overall:
I am happy with it overall.

"Great Guitar!"
Feature:Basic volume and tone control.
Quality:
Stays in tune, nice finish, and solid feel.
Value:
Like I said, I got a great deal on it which was slightly more than half of what it sells for now. The darn thing keeps going up in price which is good for me and bad for you!
Desirability:
I bought it as a second guitar so I could "play" with it. I wanted something less expensive and different so I could switch the pickups and add other stuff if I wanted. With it going up in price so much I'm scrapping the idea of changing anything else.
Sound:
Bought this guitar because it cost much less than a JS1000 and got a great deal on it. The original pickups were decent and had very good sound. I'm comparing this to my Fender American Deluxe Fat Strat. I bought this guitar with the intention of replacing the pickups which I did. I had a DiMarzio PAF Pro put in the neck & a Fred in the bridge. The sound is even better now and the sustain is one of the best I've heard.
Support:
I give it a 10 cause I never needed them.
Overall:
I love this guitar! It sounds great clean, dirty, and everywhere in between. The sustain is to die for, it stays in tune, and it's fun to play.
