Feature:
I was a little unsure about the tremolo system as I have read that many other owners have either hated it or loved it. I still have a little trouble with it staying in tune, but the fine tuners do an excellent job of putting it right back in tune. So far the lock nut has not given me not even the least bit of trouble. The volume and tone knobs move with the precision of a much more exspensive instrument. The pick up selector switch also seems to be of high quality.
Quality:
Except for some rough edges around the holes where the body bolts to the neck, my guitar came out of the box pretty much flawless. The paint is perfect and the inlays on the neck are done very nicely. Fit and finish is of a standard not usually found on guitars in this price range.
Value:
I was very close to buying a jackson JS 20 that was a litte less exspensive. (It's a shame what fender has done to the the Jackson name) Hearing both guitars through the same amp sealed the deal. The Ibanez is just a much better instrument, hands down.
Desirability:
Yes this guitar will get you noticed. It does look like a "jem". The white paint and black contrasting hardware is pure eye candy.
Sound:
I have owned 5 other guitars and this by far is the best sounding guitar I have owned, bar none. Nice clear distortion with a lot of balls. The neck pick up through no distortion is simply amazing.
Support:
So far I've had no problems that require any customer support. The dealer where I bought it set it up perfectly to my playing style.
Overall:
For the money, it's hard to beat this guitar. I looked at guitars in the 3 to 5 hundred dollar range for about 6 months before I bought this Ibanez. It seems that there are unlimited choices for that kind of money, but bang for the buck, you would be hard pressed to find a better guitar for the money. No, it's not an American Gibson, or Fender Strat, but it's also about 5 times less exspensive. If, like me, you want a great (not perfect) guitar and are on a budget (wife, kids, house, car, etc.) this is a great choice.

Feature:
everything on this guitar (except the pick ups) works and feels great
Quality:
once again excluding the pick ups this is an awesome guitar
Value:
buy this guitar and throw a smoking pick up in it and you got yourself a smoking guitar for a cheap price
Desirability:
the looks are cool. its not a psycho design but if you like strat style guitars this one rocks
Sound:
The only thing about this gutiar that could be better is a better pick up but what do you expect for this price and there really not that bad
Ease of Use:
see above
Support:
cant knock them for not needing them
Overall:
all i play is Ibanez and why pay 800 - 900 dollars for a prestige when you can have something half the price including a new pickup and i learned this because i bought a rg1570 and i really dont see the 400 dollar more difference
