"Freakin sweet metal axe"

Feature:
i really like the tremolo system. it's a little loose with 2 springs but it allows me to do all the crazy dimebag squeels. the neck is great for any player i prefer a neck that doesn't have a lot of depth this one is perfect.

Quality:
this guitar is perfect right from the factory no blemishes, or loose parts. the only thing was that my E string was fretting out when i was holding the it down on the 1st fret. but i just adjusted the height of the bridge and the tune lock. this guitar will last forever

Value:
it's deffinetly worth it.

Desirability:
it's nice if ur in a serious metal band. but it looks out of place when playin anything else. the graphic is crazy

Sound:
this guitar is awesome! i can play sweet smooth riffs then instantly switch to some crazy metal stuff. this guitar has a lot of balls. it sounds great even with a cheap $60 amp.

Ease of Use:
this guitar is perfect for playing. it didn't take any getting used to, i just picked it up and was instantly amazed by how easy it is to play. the sound is great u can turn down ur gain and play easy stuff, then crank it up and it sounds like a sick metal axe.

Support:
i haven't had to contact them because everything is okay. but this guitar isn't on the ibanez website and it pisses me off.

Overall:
forever. i like this guitar but i would like a gibson les paul as well

"Marvel, But I'd like it without The HR.GIGER design"

Feature:
It includes a hardcover case with a Hr GIGER design, or so I've heard and it's one of the best guitars I've encountered

Quality:
Tremolo was loose, but everything else was a dream

Value:
I think part of the price

Desirability:
The design isn't that appealing, it's not the best of HR Giger's work. But the sound is orgasmic

Sound:
Very very clean and full, with distortion it still remains crisp and you can play clear solos but also heavy metal. Amazing

Support:
All sites show that the guitar has two pickups, even though it has three. >: ( Couldn't find a support address anywhere

Overall:
Forever. If it was stolen i'd probably return to my old guitar because I wouldn't have enough money, but as soon as I'd get enough I'd definately buy it again (even though it's limited and by then it might be gone forever)
