Review: Superb!!! - Amazing guitar at this price range, just a lil concern about it's weight. It's quiet heavier than it looks in the images. It should be hollow so that beginners find it easy to handle, but overall it's a great choice for beginners to go....nice finish and colour and no flaws detected after opening the product. Also please provide user manual with it, I really needed that as a beginner to know about the pickup configurations. Please tell me where can I get it in soft form? Review: Bad quality tuning head / - Worked well for about 6-7 months. Then tuning head of B string just broke. It must be replaced. I'm in such a bad mood BC of that xd guitar is good but it wasn't set up correctly out of box and as beginner I had tough time playing it at first. Bajaao should do better and vault should improve their quality. I'm disappointed. Edit: i was disappointed because of the problem but the fix was easy, so now in better/neutral mood, I will add two stars for quality. I have to say it's overall good quality the only thing is it's not beginner friendly but if you have some big music shop and experts available at your city/town you won't have much problem. Unlike me. I'm from a very small town in Gujarat. ## Features - The Vault RG1 Soloist Electric Guitar exhibits shark-tooth inlays, which add an exquisite appeal to the instrument. Includes a whammy bar for extended playing styles. The chrome plating on the hardware offers the ultimate protection from corrosion, tarnishing and guarantees extreme durability. The basswood construction of the body helps dampen the highs, thus offering smooth and well-rounded tones. - Double Action Truss Rod: Vault guitars use a double action truss rod, which is only available in high-end guitars from Ibanez, Fender, PRS and the likes. It offers the advantage of adjusting the guitar for humid as well as dry climates. The truss rod can be tightened in both directions and the reverse warp dreaded by guitarists, which causes string buzzing, can easily be fixed. - High-Quality Design Pickups: Low-noise high-output pickups which give you exemplary sound. All pickups come with saddle adjustment screws. - High-Quality Tuners: High-quality chrome-plated nickel die-cast tuners with a 16:1 tuning ratio, which allows for fine-tuning your instrument. These tuners are only found in high-end guitars. - Jumbo Frets: Jumbo frets used in Vault are only found in premium guitars. Jumbo frets are made with a thicker gauge wire, and consequently, the top of the fret is further away from the fretboard. Advantages include- you can get your fretting-hand fingers further down in the gap to the side of the string, allowing you to put sideward pressure on the string more easily. - Tremolo Bridge with Whammy Bar: High-quality Tremolo bridge with Whammy Bar for better resonance and sustain. Made of industrial grade steel, the tremolo gives a better tone and harmonic response than any of the guitars. - This Product Comes With 3 Year Standard Warranty. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09GLYLQ5X | | Back Material Type | Basswood | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,650 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #8 in Solid-Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Basswood | | Body Material Type | Basswood | | Brand | VAULT | | Brand Name | VAULT | | Colour | Red | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 225 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Laurel Wood | | Guitar Bridge System | Tremolo | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | H-S-H | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Importer Contact Information | +91-22-42035353 | | Instrument | guitar | | Item Dimensions | 43 x 8.5 x 105 Centimeters | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 43L x 8.5W x 105H Centimeters | | Item Type Name | Electric Guitars | | Item Weight | 3.55 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | VAULT | | Manufacturer Part Number | RG1ILTRD | | Material Type | Bass Wood, Laurel Wood, Maple Wood | | Model Name | RG1 Soloist | | Model Number | VAU-RG1RW (Walnut) | | Neck Material Type | Maple | | Number Of Strings | 6 | | Packer Contact Information | Bajaao Music Pvt Ltd | | Size | RG1 (Fretboard- Laurel) | | Top Material Type | Flame Maple Veneer | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 3 Year Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** VAULT - **Colour:** Red - **Top Material Type:** Flame Maple Veneer - **Body Material:** Basswood - **Back Material Type:** Basswood ## Images ![RG1 Soloist Premium Basswood Electric Guitar (Red, Indian Laurel Fretboard) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61DxuE7T5OL.jpg) ![RG1 Soloist Premium Basswood Electric Guitar (Red, Indian Laurel Fretboard) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61dNxXL4LwL.jpg) ![RG1 Soloist Premium Basswood Electric Guitar (Red, Indian Laurel Fretboard) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51AiiX35koL.jpg) ![RG1 Soloist Premium Basswood Electric Guitar (Red, Indian Laurel Fretboard) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61MdI4Ff2PL.jpg) ![RG1 Soloist Premium Basswood Electric Guitar (Red, Indian Laurel Fretboard) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51dasZw8yfL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: RG styled guitars are supposed to have a flat thin neck and also a flat fretboard. Does this have that? Or is the neck and fretboard round** A: The neck is thin and the fretboard is flat - it is convenient and comfortable for smooth playing. However, it would have helped to send a user manual to know the different parts and uses like changing the strings, etc., etc. **Q: What is the size of whammy bar ?** A: Its around 6 inch or 15 cm approx. **Q: Does it plays without amp** A: Yes u can play it without using an amplifier but the enhance sound effects requires amplifier but yes you can play it without using an amplifier! **Q: Can I play chords on this guitar** A: Of course you can play chords on this guitar. That little switch can be moved up and down to get different pitch of sound and you can choose one which would suit the chords. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb!!! *by T***S on 1 May 2023* Amazing guitar at this price range, just a lil concern about it's weight.

I paid for brand new product, not sone used one. At first it looked good, even sound was decent, although it goes out of tune in every 10-15 min, it didn't bother me much, but when I saw it in sunlight, it broke my heart. Faded colour was clearly visible and some places have colour patches, like they tried to manage it to look new by permanent marker. Never expected this from Seller. Thanks to Amazon for quick response on return, But this type of situations are breking our trust. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vault RG1 Soloist Premium Electric Guitar - Transparent Red - VAULT Play True Wireless Earbuds with 15 Hours of Wireless Charging - Vault Frenzy 20 Watt Guitar Combo Amplifier with Analog Distortion, Reverb & Delay All Playable Together --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/359383109-rg1-soloist-premium-basswood-electric-guitar-red-indian-laurel-fretboard](https://www.desertcart.us/products/359383109-rg1-soloist-premium-basswood-electric-guitar-red-indian-laurel-fretboard) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
