"Good Beginner instrument."

Feature:
This product included all the accessories to get you going. The most useful feature of the guitar is the humbucker in the bridge position. The tuner wasn't exactly what you would call a good one. The amp cable that came with it was short and thin. My cable broke in half after 7 months. So i bought a rapcord thicker cable that's 25 feet long. MUCH BETTER.

Quality:
Well, in the pack i got some ibanez picks. I used those, but they were horrible. Besides the fact they were thin, the dye from them rubbed off on my pickguard leaving blue and red streaks on it. Put it this way, the accessories in the pack are cheapies they throw in there that are worth basically nothing. Buy better accessories as soon as possible.

Value:
It is worth its typical selling price.

Desirability:
it kind of appealed to me

Sound:
I like the fact that this guitar comes with a humbucker, but the middle position and neck pickup buzz A LOT, when played by themselves.To get a cleaner sound mix the humbucker with the neck pu. This gives you sort of a grunge sound. Pretty heavy, but not so havy it sounds like crap. Although with that amp, it makes everything sound heavier. I tried my friend's fender amp, it cleaned the sound right up.

Ease of Use:
Tis guitar is a beginner guitar, great for when i started but now i'm moving on.If i were you, i would replace the single coils with some noiseless fender pickups. I think they sell those on this website. I didn't read the manual so i don't really now if it explains that well. You are going to have to play around with your amp a little bit before finding a good sound. Once you get the hang of it though, it becomes easier.

Support:
I haven't attempted to upgrade mine yet, i probably should have by now. I have also never dealt with ibanez for support, which is good. Occasionaly i go to my local guitar shop for minor repairs, but that's it.

Overall:
i also have a fender jagmaster, they're about the same price, but the jagmaster puts this ibanez into shame. For the price the jagmaster beats up the ibanez then spits on it

"great place to start, but that's where you'll leave it, if your on a budget this axe will get you through your first year or two"

Feature:
the practice amp that came with it humms hard when turned up, but at soft volumes you can get a clean enough sound to practice with

Quality:
for the money the guitar is actually pretty well made, but definately something you will outgrow quickly

Value:
solid value for a cheap guitar to get your chops up on before investing in a lifelong axe

Desirability:
decent lines

Sound:
decent for a "learner" guitar, for the money it actually is what you would expect.

Ease of Use:
the amp is basiclly only good for a low volume clean sound for practice

Support:
never needed it yet

Overall:
playable for the price, definately am going to replace it when my playing breaks through to the NEXT level
