"Excellently well-made."

Feature:
With the guitar I received a chord, belt, and tool, along with the info tags and booklet. The free belt was a compliment the store threw in.

Quality:
I bought the guitar only three days ago, but I have spent atleast 6-7 hrs on it, and so far it seems to be made quite well. The bridge is very well made to align the strings nicely across the fingerboard to the nut, pickups are excellent, tuning knobs all work correctly, as well as the pickup switch...I will use this guitar for a number of years and have already become quite attached to it.

Value:
I have not seen a better deal on a guitar since the deal I got with my acoustic from a music store that was going out of business. $209 is an amazing deal for this good of a guitar. I am very impressed (even the music store employees were shocked when they heard it play).

Desirability:
Mine is in transparent red......."VERY sexy" according to some lady friends. In my opinion, it is very sexy with it's color, it's agathis body, very smooth neck and fingerboard, it's tuning knobs, bridge, nut, frets.....all very, very nice looking. The body is the best looking part for it's color, it's agathis shape/style, and it's size. Until I picked this up and played it, I didn't expect to buy a guitar that day, expecially since I only had about $220, $100 of which I left and got out of the bank to make sure I had enough to pay, and then went back to the store. Like I said today, "It never felt so good to be broke!"

Sound:
This guitar really produces amazing sound, anywhere from nasty to beautiful. It's like a bad-ass angel's voice.

Support:
Hahaha it's only been three days, and I wouldn't contact Ibanez for support either since I have quick contact with a guitar tech.

Overall:
I have played on my crappy Kent, my friend's '59 reissue Gibson-Les Paul, his Dean (Dimbag Darrell I think), his Jackson, my other friend's new Epiphone Les-Paul, and the GAX70 tops all of them, except for the gibson-les paul...but I prefer mine over his.

"what all guitar players should own."

Quality:
i have only had it or about a year but it sounds and feels the same way it did when i bought it.

Value:
it is an excellent guitar for the price.

Sound:
It has an incrediable all-around sound and can be manipulated to do many things. As a player i would recommended it to a beginer or intermidiate but could definitly be played for proffesional use.

Overall:
i collect guitars so im always looking but this will be one of my main guitars fo along time to come.

Style of Music: Mostly Jewish, but some jazz and rock

About This Product!
Description
Docs
The AX is based on the classic Ibanez Artist, but make no mistake: there's nothing "classic rock" about the AX. With a crystal cut body and high output pickups, the ultra loud AX was designed for the new generation of heavy players.

The AX produces an assertive cutting edge for modern rhythm work and a lead tone that's powerful without straying.
