I purchased an RG570 in 1991 brand new when I jsut found out what credit was (paid almost $1000 for it) and before I knew what kepping a guitar in good condition was. Well 14 years later I'm much more wiser, however my RG still sounds great. I even attempt to refinish it myself last year. I'm doing some mods to it. The black hardware is worn. I have a pickup question. Are the stock '91 RG V7 & V8 Hums? The pictures I see of early RG's now show the V7 & V8 pickups. My guitar is Japan made and for what I paid for it, I'd expect top of the line hardware. Here are some pics of it.
This is the refinished and the pickgaurd/cover I ordered that are not in yet.
