Description
Professional features at an affordable price is the cornerstone of Ibanez's Performance guitars. Other major manufacturers only check their instruments in the Performance price range with random inspections before shipping them to stores in the States. But every Ibanez acoustic guitar, from the least expensive Performance model to their top of the line Artwoods, is inspected and set up according to the stringent standards of Ibanez quality control.

Mahogany provides rich warm lows and sweet sustain.

"A great guitar worth twice its cost"
Feature:
The tuner and electronics are nice. You can't do a whole lot but then agian its not an expensive guitar.

Quality:
It doesn't feel like a beginners guitar. Its very solid and feels like it will last a long time. The electronics are simple and not flimsy, plus they re Fishman so no worries there.

Value:
Like I said besides the strings and looks it rivals an Art Wood. I payed 230 for a blemished one and LOVE it

Desirability:
Pretty simple looking guitar, no fancy anything. I personally like the head but besides that nothing that great about it.

Sound:
It has a very nice sound, my friend has an Art Wood that cost more than double this but this guitar still has the same great sound.

Ease of Use:
The strings it comes with are, ok. They have a great sound but are kinda rough. I'm planning on getting lighter strings.

Support:
Never had to call, it has a warranty so I'll give it a 10

Overall:
I hope to keep this thing for atleast 8 year, long enough to get me though college and I think it will meet my expectations.

"9 years of happiness and counting"
Feature:
Electronics running strong. Simple and efficient.

Quality:
9 years after purchase and it hasn't required much repair at all. Bridge needed to be reglued last year after a hard humid winter in upstate New York. That's it. I've bumped it quite a bit, but so far no loose parts, no significant scars. I look forward to several more years.

Value:
It was more than the guitar I thought I was buying at the time. Love it. And bought it off of student scholarship to state school.

Desirability:
I like the simplicity- tt appeals to me. Nothing over the top. Very practical and pleasing to look at.

Sound:
Works well for me. Slightly snappy acoustic. After a show, people ask me about the guitar- impressed with the sound. They guess all kinds of upscale brands.

Ease of Use:
I'm no guitar whiz. If I can play it, it's VERY playable. Action is probably a touch high, but it never stopped me. When I bought it I walked around the music store until I found the one that sounded good and felt good. This was the winner.

Support:
Never had to contact them

Overall:
I'll look for another guitar when this one croaks. It's been everything I need for my simple requirements for 9 years of regular playing. It's a great guitar to grow into as a guitarist.
