Ibanez GRG170DX Electric Guitar

No longer available at zZounds
The Ibanez GRG170DX offers great feel for a great price. With a 3-pickup HSH arrangement, the Ibanez GRG170DX is good for heavier music.

Don't settle for less. With Ibanez less bucks doesn't mean less looks or less tone. Ibanez GRX guitars have the humbuckers you need for heavy rhythms and riffs; and exciting finishes worthy of a pro axe. To make sure none of the great tone gets lost in the sauce, GRX 6-string models feature the FAT-10 tremolo.

Basswood is a comparatively lightweight wood, which makes it very comfortable for extended playing. With a good balance of highs and lows, basswood is right in between alder and mahogany in sound character.

Rosewood offers a strong, bright sound and an attractive appearance with a long grain.

(see rating details)
if it was stolen i would get another one i was very impressed with it
Sound
I have herd bad things about the pickups but i have to say i am very impressed they are not muddy at all very nice sound for passive pickups. Its great for all types of music
Features
Its a basic guitar with a floating bridge so u can pull back on it to raise the pitch of the note but the volume pot is not that great it the level of the sound wont change much when using it so its not that great for volume swells the tuners are nice aswell
Ease of Use
Very simple guitar thin strong neck no locking tremolo but because of the bridge you will have trouble keeping it in tune for a few hours after changing the strings
