$199 Ibanez guitar - is it good?

What's better this or grx70qa in terms of quality

Those inlays are a deal breaker. Just ruined an otherwise gorgeous guitar.

Of course the name matters

Yeah, I think I'm going to pick one up. Been looking at some cheaper models of Schecter, Jackson and Ibanez. The GIO is the one in going get...I think. Lol. I have a Squire Bullet strat and it's actually a decent guitar, but want something a little smaller and that I can navigate the neck more quickly. Growing out of the Squire.😂

I have this guitar and it kicks some serious butt. As mentioned in the comments section, just upgrade this and it would be good to go!

Today, i got my own in house :)

Lovely!
Do you think this guitar would also be ok for playing chords and suitable for small hands?

Is this Chinese?

I've had one of these for about two years. I'm honestly thinking of picking up two or three more for gigging purposes. For shows, I'd rather have a small fleet of decent, affordable guitars than one really nice one that I'd be scared of damaging.

Playing live, it's almost impossible to hear a difference between a $200 guitar and a $2,000 guitar. Studio recording is a different story, though. In that case, a higher end guitar makes a little more sense.

How did you change the action to be smaller?

The stock pickups sound good, I'm planning to buy the guitar at some point and I will swap them for a Bill Lawrence 500XL and a Seymour Duncen 59 like Nuno has

I bought this recently. I think the playability is even better than my gibson les paul.

can i get amp name?

Greetings! Is this guitar good for beginners? I want to play metal but also clean tones.

Are these Jumbo frets like Jackson

I bought one a few years ago. The only modification I did was dropping a DiMarzio in the neck and a Seymour Duncan in the bridge. Honestly, the stock pickups weren't bad; I just wanted a particular sound. It's become my go-to guitar nowadays. Right out of the box, everything was great. It didn't need much a set up besides a bit of standard intonation tweaking. Everything from the neck relief, fretwork, nut height and action were pretty much perfect. The tuners keep tune well and haven't given me any problems.

My only nitpick is the juxtaposition of the natural finish and the shark tooth inlays. To me, it seems like an odd combination.

Varg Vikernes reviews Ibanez

some Ibanez guitars just look so good honestly... ps. it has humbuckers but it sounds like any Ibanez guitar like eva.. much brighter than u would expect

whats your rig setup?

what kind of amp / fx processor, and speakers are you using?

hello...
how's the weight??
is it light , normal or heavy??

Searching for an adecuate guitar in the price range. Good review, thank you so much.

Does it come with a vibrato, I can't tell from the pics

I just got this one from GC used as great condition for $130 it’s pretty awesome

I was deployed to Kosovo and just wanted an electric to use for my headphone amp. I bought this from Sweetwater and was pleasantly surprised by it's playability for I think $225 (with free shipping). Totally worth it.

In Australia it’s 429 in Australian currency

Is it a good beginner guitar though? I am looking to buy my first guitar and I was just wondering if it was good for my first guitar as a beginner

it is my first guitar and i recoment it to everyone its just the perfect guitar to start off ur guitar skills

Do have a beginners recommendation?

Nice video, different from the shop videos, great tones ang great playing. Made me decide on buying one like this as a second guitar for the road. Keep it up

I just don't like the short scale length

199 dólares?, esa guitarra aquí en Costa Rica cuesta 500 dolares :(

Sounds good to me! But your much better player than me!

I like Ibanez because they pointy

got mine today...stunning Quality, feels and looks like a 500/600$ Guitar. Soundcheck will show if it chuggs 😎

Hi there, thanks for the great review - how well does it do in drop tunings such as B and A

waiting for my guitar to come in...thanks for the video...sick licks!!! ROCK ON!!

one way to immediately sell me on a guitar is to crank the gain and play an ETID riff

Can we play classic rock solos with this guitar or the sound is gonna be muddy due to hh pick ups? Also the clean sound is gonna be good or distorted too?

pjanic

Guitar demonstrations/tests in 2022 are just waiting for them to stop chugging lol

Hi there how high should i have these pickups adjusted please thanks

Nice review, I am between the Ibanez or Jackson js22. More Jackson I think. But the color and neck of Ibanez makes difference.

what gauge is best to use for this guitar?

I just picked up one of these up in black for £80 with stand and tuner just cleaned the fret board thrown some decent strings on it and it is an absolute joy to play easy proffit when I come to selling it to!
