Ibanez RGA42EX vs Schecter Damien-6

[@jessehutchings]

I honestly can't tell a meaningful difference. They both sounded great

[@jackwheelington6049]

That’s cuz most of the tone is in the Amp

[@giraybudak1877]

Song is forsaken by dream theater

[@mikeg.9238]

I can't judge these , because they're my 2 favorite brands , and i own and have owned several of them. They are both top notch when it comes to quality and affordability IMO!

[@ornitorenkmafya2900]

Do u thinking to sell one of them?

[@mikeg.9238]

@@ornitorenkmafya2900 I sold a couple but keeping the rest....

[@prefacciprian7728]

I forgot to compare, music took me.Nice played.Both sounds very well at this price level.I hope one day to have chance to compare a Prestige and a KM model.

[@jem555bkk]

Thanks for a nice comment. I'd love to do that comparison too.

[@joshg0h79]

Just started learning. I was looking at ibanezes but ran across the schecter at my local pawn shop (havent even got home yet). Those bat inlays sold me. Not to mention the 20% off. Make more videos with it. Not too many so I'm sure it will get views

[@colinboschma]

Screw it ill just buy both, they sound so good

[@alekstan]

I couldn't tell any difference between the two as a listener. They're both beautiful guitars.

[@MidwestOntarioHeadwaters]

I wasn't expecting such a close call. The Quantums seemed to perform well in the mid to high notes, whereas the Schecter did better down low, but seemed a little pluckier overall. I would choose the Quantums in a full-sized RG 421. Save some money while you're at it.

[@gordonbuss3981]

Came for the comparison, return for the music.

[@pornchaimakaraphun7649]

More like Schecter tone, seem you play more accurate on Schecter as well. Good playing as always.

[@helixworld]

The Schecter sounds better in this demo. Its likely to be the pickups, but it probably uses better quality woods as well.

[@MaximusAdonicus]

Lol, tonewood 😅 It's most likely the pickups only.

[@helixworld]

​@@MaximusAdonicus I wonder if you have tried this: Buy a low-end Ibanez and upgrade to awesome pickups. It does not always work as simply as you suggest.

[@carlosaugustomedeiros7822]

Shecter fantastic

[@jackp8022]

@@MaximusAdonicus you're an idiot if you don't think the thing that makes up 95% of the guitar will affect the tone

[@chief8825]

@@helixworldI’m a die hard schecter fanboy but I also love Ibanez. I’ve got an old ass RG5EX1 with a set of EMG 81/85s in it and that thing honestly sounds better then my Syn custom

[@Dral.09]

Nice video, what are the things you like more in each one??

[@mirkoobradovic3426]

Well thanks a lot ! Now I have to buy both! :)

[@jem555bkk]

Thanks for watching!

[@alexp5276]

can you give your opinion which of the two sounds better and is better in performance quality?

[@jem555bkk]

The Schecter sounded tighter to my ears so it was more suit to the metal style. I also like the satin finish on the Schecter neck. Thanks for watching!

[@alexp5276]

@jem555bkk Thanks bro!!!🤘

[@newbeginning1510]

They booth sound sick but the Schecter looks so sick

[@jasestarr8606]

That Schecter must be a different model, the Damien 6 i might get has EMG pickups

[@giush5079]

There are different versions

[@rectifier7578]

Hey man is the RGA neck heavy or well balanced? Thanks for the video

[@jem555bkk]

Not sure what you mean by heavy or well balanced for a neck. It's a typical Ibanez wizard neck. Thin and easy to play. Thanks for watching!

[@lohansubramaniam6839]

@@jem555bkk I think he means to ask whether the guitar has neck dive or not

[@zilthlithiang]

What pedal did you use for

[@FlaRoughneck]

I have the Ibanez.. I love it.

[@therealGreencrack]

ชอบลุคกับอินเล ของเดเมี่ยนตัวนี้ ถ้าเอาเล่นเพลงตลาดเบาๆด้วยมันไหวไหมครับ ผมเห็นมือสองราคาดีเว่อ

[@JRs-guitars]

Used to love Ibanez. Until I bought a S670 last month, the quality was lacking on the fret board, neck and pickups. Schecter has only gotten better over the years.

[@newbeginning1510]

Nice playing what song is this ?

[@jem555bkk]

I tried to cover Dream Theater's "Forsaken". Thanks for watching!

[@tometal]

Schecter is more compressed and nasal, Ibanez is open and balanced. Personally I like the Ibanez better in this clip.

[@michaelbrookins2720]

Great video l have been very interested bolth in guitars thank you

[@jessehutchings]

Michael Meyers intro music . . Interesting choice

[@pumpkincoffee]

is there a coil split?

[@jem555bkk]

Yeah both have their own way to do coil split but I didn’t use them in this video. Thanks for watching!

[@ahmad-pz1cc]

So in your hand which is better playbility ?

[@jem555bkk]

I have to say the Ibanez but I actually liked the look and feel of the Schecter. At this price point, I think Schecter is really hard to beat. Thanks for watching.

[@kakarot666.]

It's just a matter of choice. 😆. Both are outstanding.. one who knows ibanez more will prefer ibanez.. same for shecter.. I'm both.

[@sourishguha647]

Nothing can beat ibanez quantum pickups

Schecter wins this one 🔥

[@Benzodiazpine]

Comparing into a mix doesn't show the real sound of the guitar. If the goal is to show guitar sound you should do it raw.

[@jem555bkk]

I just want to put them into a context. Most of the time electric guitars are played in a band. For raw sounds there are plenty on youtube anyway. Thanks for watching!

@@jem555bkk then change your misleading video title to " they are plenty of videos on KZbin, im just messing around for fun".
