NGD: Rabea Sabre

[Avlan]

I found the perfect do it all guitar for me. This guitar is super versatile and the pickups split in the best way I’ve heard yet.

It’s the Music Man Rabea Signature model, I always saw it at the store and usually dismissed it as a metal oriented guitar but I decided to give it a try and was totally blown away. It can really do everything I need and it does it perfectly. The neck is chunkier and wider than most of the Music Man guitars I’ve tried before and it’s super comfortable.

It is rapidly becoming my number one guitar. It’s beating my Suhr and PRS for comfort and versatility.

Gorgeous!

What do you think of the pickups? I'm intrigued by them.

 

[Vito Porkleone]

Yeah, I'm wondering about those pickups too. Bea's low gain tones are some of the best I've heard.

That is one good looking guitar!!

The Bareknuckle Silo pickups are great. This may be sacrilege, but a couple of years ago I replaced the stock DiMarzios in my Axis guitars with Silos and I believe they are a big improvement in clarity and dynamics. They can do everything from lush cleans to heavy. I did need to add a tone circuit hidden in the rear routed control area. Without it, most pickups would be very bright.
