Ibanez GAX70L Left-Handed Electric Guitar

GAX neck, agathis body, rosewood fingerboard, Full Tune II bridge 47 People rated this product: Rate and Review This Product

Manufacturer's Description for Ibanez GAX70L Left-Handed Electric Guitar

The most demanded affordable axe in Ibanez' history, the GAX70, was made for music now, not music then. The crystal cut, double cutaway body is crafted of agathis, a wood similar in look to mahogany, but more similar in tone alder. Agathis has good sustain in the high end which is an excellent tonal characteristic fort he kind of cutting rhythm and lead work needed for today's harder and heavier rock.

Although modern in feel and tone, the GAX has all the traditional goodies: popular two humbucking configuration with two Powersound pickups and a standard 3 way toggle switch, rosewood fretboard on a 24 3/4 in. scale, 22 fret 1 piece maple neck, and die-cast tuners. The Ibanez Full Tune II bridge with stop tailpiece contributes to the GAX's ample sustain as well as making for easy intonating. The fact that this is an inexpensive axe is just a plus. At any price, the GAX70 is an instrument that stands on its own.

Features
GAX Neck - This bolt on 24.75 in. neck is designed for strong rhythm playing as well as leads. Unfinished.

Agathis Body - A relative of mahogany with similar tonal characteristics, agathis provides warm lows with strong sustain.

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

Full Tune II Bridge - The classic bridge/stop tailpiece design with height adjustable bridge and individual intonation adjustment. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Ibanez products.

4.5 out of 5 (47 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"Wow, just wow."
Sound: The sound is just simply amazing, I've played higher priced guitars and the tone on this one is just great! Feature: The humbuckers on the guitar is great for alot of heavy fast riffs such as grunge, but dont let that stop you from using it for playing blues because it also sounds amazing on this guitar. Quality: Very durable. Value: I think this product is worth more then they're selling it for. Manufacturer Support: I've dealt with the Ibanez company befor, and they were just great. The Wow Factor: The color and the double cut away style is just mind blowing sexy. Overall: Love it and wouldn't go for any other guitar out there in this price range.

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Great guitar for the price. Period."
Sound: This guitar sounds very nice, and that surprised me, for such a cheap guitar. It has a much more trebly sound than a traditional Les Paul. It plays great distorted on the bridge pickup, and still sounds pretty decent clean. Don't get me wrong though, with some Duncan's in this thing, it would RAWK to the next level. Feature: It's a simple guitar..two pickups, four knobs, and a 3-way switch. Not much here. But it's really all you need. Ease of Use: It's got great playability. Extremely light, as opposed to my Hagstrom Swede, by at least 5 pounds. Seriously, it's LIGHT! And it's body has a rather small-profile as well. Quality: Pretty good quality, however it does need to be intonated correctly, as mine was a tad bit off. You can really expect that with any guitar though, so I give it up to Ibanez here for quality. My only gripe is that it's top-heavy, so if you let go of the neck, it will drop to your knees...makes it harder to slide around the fretboard efficiently, because you're supporting the weight of the neck as you're playing...that's the main difference between this and a quality guitar. Value: Dude, this thing screams value! $250 for a killer starter guitar? I'll take two! I still play this after getting two other guitars added to my collection. Mine has a few battle scars already, but she's still my baby. I'll never get rid of it. Manufacturer Support: I can't speak for their customer service, because I've never dealt with them before. The Wow Factor: Not a whole lot of sex appeal...it's a bruiser. Small, mean looking guitar. I didn't love all the black, so I made a pickguard for mine for sex appeal...it's not like you need one though. For beginners, don't be afraid of not having a pickguard: It's actually really hard IMO to even hit the body of your gutar with your pick as you're playing. It's really just for looks. Overall: I'll never sell this guitar. This was my first, and now that I've really matured as a guitar player, I know that I made a great decision buying this guitar. It has a really good sound for the money. I still haven't changed out the pups, mainly because I'm unsure of my soldering skills, but I am pleased with the sound of this bad boy. With the gain up to 5 and a wah wah, this thing SCREAMS! I also forgot to mention the fact that you can get some great pinch harmonics out of this thing! You can get a harmonic anywhere on the fretboard, after a little practice. Great guitar, great value.
