"Ibanez's masterpiece in the Acoustic-Electric guitar world."

Feature:
The cutaways that are only found on the Ibanez EW's are wonderful because they provide more room for your hand to reach those higher frets. The tuner is really nice and handy. The two different types of input really help the player choose the sound they want to get with either the 1/4 inch or XLR inputs. The notch filter,treb,middle,and volume knobs are one reason why I bought this guitar.It looked really clean and simple to us.Plus, they work awesome as well for the price.

Quality:
I loved this guitar since the first day I laid eyes on it at my local music shop. I played it and was amazed by the quality of the sound. I would have expected to pay much more for this guitar for the same sound, but was astonished for the quality given and the price. Ibanez has done it yet again with a quality guitar that doesn't drain your pockets either. Ibanez is always thinking of the working man or woman which is really nice.

Value:
Anybody who is looking for a steal, BUY THIS GUITAR!!!!! You won't be disappointed. I would have been willing to pay much more than this price to get that same quality in sound and playability.

Desirability:
This guitar is soooooo sexy to look at and play. I just wanna touch and touch some more ;p . I couldn't put this guitar down. I played it for hours as soon as I got it out of the box.

Sound:
I just got my EW20ASE today and I must say that it is not only aesthetically pleasing to the eyes, but also sounds amazing. Let's get this straight, you won't get a Taylor, Gibson, Martin, or any other high end guitar sounds because that is distinctive to their names;however, the EW20AS really gives you a great bang for your buck and sounds beautiful with clear crisp tones thanks to those D'Addario EXP's. Ibanez really designed and created a beautiful guitar with these EW's and I am so thankful that they did because it truly is a work of art. Well done Ibanez!!

Ease of Use:
Ibanez really thinks about their customers for both the beginner,experience, and professional players with a manual of how to take care of your guitar,restringing guide,using the pick-up system,extra hardware and an allen head key to fix the neck if the need arises. Using the guitar is really easy because Ibanez created a masterpiece. The neck was perfect and so was the action the moment I took it out of the box. The only thing that needed to be done was to tune it which was really thanks to the built-in tuner.

Support:
Well, I called Ibanez to see which hardshell case would fit the EW, but I didn't get the answer because I was on hold for about 12 minutes. I ran out of patience at that time, but I must admit that they had some cool music playing while I was on hold. I probably called at a bad time or when they were really busy.

Overall:
This guitar will play anything and just looks like it wants to be played. Go out and buy it, you won't be disappointed in your investment. Trust me on this one. This guitar is beautiful and it won't turn you down.

"Natural beauty!"

Feature:
The first thing I've noticed was the quilted ash. The front, sides back, and headstock are all in quilted ash, the neck is made from mahogany, and with the abalone inlay, and the Ibanez logo in the headstock, makes the guitar looks like a guitar that's worth twice the price I'd paid for it. Very beautiful! The electronics are perfect for me. When amplified, the sound is very rich. The only thing I've noticed, that it has a low output when I bought it. After a while, I've noticed the batteries are empty...heheh...

Quality:
The finishing touch on this guitar is very OK! the guitar is well made. No sharp edges or such things. The bindings are very well made. Also the brigde is made from the Ibanez IvorexII type material. Gives it a very great sound!

Value:
The price was very good. I had expected when I saw it for the first time, it was twice as expensive....!

Desirability:
Very cool product! looks awesome, little ''blingbling'' effect...I like that!

Sound:
When I saw this guitar on the internet, I was suprised by the looks. So I went to the local music store, an d tried it. i didn't believe what I heard, when I first hit the strings. The sound is very full and warm, while the higher notes sounds clear.

Ease of Use:
At my local store, the salesman told me that he had tried to improve the action, because it was a little hard to play fast. Now it plays very well, better then my Les Paul electric guitar! The neck is very thin, but it still gives the guitar a long sustain! Also the tuner is very easy to use.

Support:
i don't know....I haven't had any support, and i don't think I'll need it...heheh

Overall:
This beauty will be in my collection for a long time!

News
Sound and playability are the two most important components in an instrument. However, the importance of the visual aspect cannot be denied. The appearance and sound of these three unique instruments were designed for the player who is looking for a completely new and different voice. Ibanez doesn't think you'll find anything else quite like the new EW guitars. If you do find something somewhat similar, you'll find that the price isn't remotely similar. These are simply great -- and very different -- guitars at great prices.
