Feature:
The guitar seems traditionally built. The model I own does not have a tremolo nor any other accessory. The controls and their layout is satisfactory.
Quality:
Seems very well done! the finish is top notch, and there are some fine touches such as the inlays in the neck. There are no "loose ends" in the visible production - it is well finished.
Value:
One of the best value per money guitars in current production!
Desirability:
It is very appealing. In terms of "sexiness" it is in no way less alluring than exotic 3000$ hollowbodies!
Sound:
This guitar has a wonderful natural, unamplified sound - you can almost use it as an acoustic guitar! It has better resonance and sustain and "body" than most 2-3000$ hollow bodies i've tried!
The amplified sound is clean but slightly more "muted" than I'd like it to be. Excellent for jazz and guitar solos for soft pop/ rock music.
Support:
I actually communicated with Ibanez directly. They were available and friendly.
Overall:
I don't thing I will need to replace this one - it is a keeper and I can see how it serves me for many many years (unless my son accidentally breaks it or something...)

Feature:
Two volumes, two tones, and everything else is nice.
Quality:
9 so far, no problems and I bought mine as a B-stock.
Value:
Very good, I've played many Hollowbodies in this price range and this was the best, so I got it.
Desirability:
This was the best looking and most appealing guitar in it's price range. It has nice binding on the body and neck and the inlays on the neck are very nice also. The blue color is very nice, I have been looking to get a guitar with blue in it.
Sound:
I just got mine from and right out of the box it was great. It needed tuning, but no biggy. I played it thru three different amps with different setting and it was very nice. Great jazzy sounds, great classic rock sounds, and I even cranked the distortion on my Marshall and got decent Heavy Metal Sounds. It's got a floating bridge so replace the strings one at a time. I have not replaced mine yet, I'll have to figure out which ones I want on it. I use different strings for different guitars.
Support:
I have not needed to contact Ibanez, and I'm sure the seller will be great if I need to contact them.
Overall:
Could this guitar be better? This guitar is great, but I'm sure it could be slightly better. I would buy another one of these if I lost it, or it were stolen. I have looked at other Hollowbodies and this was it. I looked and played others for a year. This guitar is really great.
