Having owned both the old UVs (PWH, UV7BK greendot) play much better than the RG7620s. If budget is important the RG7620 is still a damn nice playing guitar and will run you less than half what an old UV will.

If you're talking about the newer / current UVs, 7620 hands down.

Origanally posted by Variant - Pulled from the river Styx, the mighty black oar of doom in hand! I certainly would not call this particular guitar an "axe" more like a club. Noodles' KxK would run through an emo, spilling his insides for a quick death, this blunt mace would bludgeon the unfortunate effeminate soul, breaking bones, and causing internal bleeding to lead only to a slow, painful death

Yes it does, having owned three old UVs and two 7620s, the UVs do actually play quite a bit better IMHO (different neck profile). That said I sold all of them because I just don't care for the sound of basswood.

I own a '97 UV7BK and '91 UV7PWH and i just recently sold a RG7620 and i will say that the UV's smoke the 7620. Dont get me wrong the 7620 is a great guitar but it is'nt the same as a UV. I just personally love the feel and tone of the UV's as opposed to a 7620.
