Thoughts? I played an RD500 at a local store yesterday that was very nice and super cheap. Seemed like it should cost a lot more than they were asking. I hadn't heard of this series so I thought I'd ask you fellas.
I'm a fan of Ibanez. I've had and an ATK, an Artcore, an RD500, and 3 SRXs. The RD was my least favorite. There was nothing wrong with it, it just didn't seem to have any character tone wise(IMHO). The construction was great, I loved the looks, the feel was alright, it just didn't "speak" to me. If you like the tone and feel I say go for it, they are quality basses.

Ah, yes! The Roadgear. Very popular basses. Never played one, but they seem to be a good choice if your in for slapping and the heavier music genres, due to the MM/S pickup configuration. And it has 24 frets, so you have a lot of possibilities tonewise!
If you like the sound and the feel of the neck, go for it!
