tell me about 442 R radius


I just won a 442 R on the bay! I got a great deal on it. cant wait for it to arrive. What are the thoughts about this guitar. It seems to me it is fairly rare, as i havent come across any that i can recall.

i will post pics when it arrives.

Dude, congrats - I saw that one and forgot to come back and check on it! I've got one, and it's awesome. The necks on those are really nice.

Here's mine, a cherry burst with a cream/black zebra Air Zone in the bridge, a strat single in the middle, and an IBZUSA C3 in the neck:

Re: tell me about 442 R radius


i have that exact guitar, although it's not in as good of condition as the one pictured above. it was an **** purchase and its my only maple necked guitar. i dig it, neck feels really nice, much like a slightly thinner strat neck, or very similar to the js neck. the v6 in the bridge is chunky and gainier than i thought it would be and the neck is very glassy/tubey sounding.

if you dig that guitar, you might want to check out another sweet radius (which is picked up on the bay last week), which is the rv470. it has very similar features, such as the strat trem, non-locking nut, but has a rosewood fingerboard, clear pickguard, locking tuners and a tobacco sunburst finish. hardware is gold, but i will be switching it out for chrome soon enough.

That's a pretty nice guitar. Nice score!
I like the Trans Red color, very cool.
