From Our Catalog
Nothing like a blast from the past. As long as it’s got modern tweaks, appointments and consistency. The Artist is one of the first Ibanez original designs, the affordable double-cutaway alternative to the other famous mahogany double-humbucker. The set-neck Iceman with its mahogany/humbucker power is the most easily identifiable radical guitar shape-from any distance. They’ve modified the funky pawnshop-inspired Jet King by switching out the original humbucker with a high-output exposed polepiece humbucker for stronger leads. Think ‘50s greaser guitar with ‘70s hotrodding.

Ibanez JTK2 Jet King Electric Guitar Reviews

"Overlooked guitar that deserves more attention & notoriety than it recieves."
Feature:
300 bucks & you get mahogany body & neck, coil taps for both pickups, pretty decent hardware. It really is worth twice what you pay for, and I'm sure if it was a Fender, you would be paying twice as much.
Quality:
Pretty darn good for a Korean factory, well soldered electronics, good finish, no blemishes or anything like that. Great work horse on the road as you'd have a hell of a time trying to break it.
Value:
this thing is better than any guitar selling for 500 bucks or less.
Desirability:
Awesome looks, a style all its own, its looks alone are what first caught my eye!
Sound:
For the price, the sound is really something. The humbuckers are smooth and powerful & the coil taps really make it versatile. The excellent mahogany body & neck combo really lend some sustain to the guitar. It's great for all kinds of music, though I wouldn't really recommend it for metal.
Ease of Use:
Plug in & play, very small learning curve on the controls as you can figure them all out in about 10 seconds. Very playable, beefy neck, I love the neck probably the most as it's substantial but no overly large. Plus the satin neck finish makes it a dream to play on, no friction on you hands what so ever.
Support:
never needed to contact them.
Overall:
I've been playing it for almost 3 years. I've done a lot of custom work on it to make it really mine, but it was really good before I changed anything on it.
