"GREAT GUITAR, WORTH EVERY CENT!!!!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
A completely well-worth-your-money guitar that can do anything from country, to blues, to indie rock (thats me)....and it doesn't cost two feet and a nose....its only $200....jeepers creepers, go out and buy one if you have the money!!!!

Sound
the clean sound is really nice, punchy at times and bright at other times with the flick of a switch. the pickups are a little weak when i use the distortion on my amp, but if i run it through a stomp box, then it sounds GREAT!

Features
I love the action on it. nice and low over a rosewood fretboard, mm..mm..good. I also like the colors, i have a sparkly silver one, not really my style, but it still looks pretty sweet under the lights.

Quality
I had one problem with the jack. I bought the guitar used, so i don't really know how the guy before me handled it, but on of the wires connected to the jack came lose, so i just sodered it back together, no biggie....other than that, i would say ibanez has done an excellent job with this one.

Value
Like i said before, semi-hollowbody for $200 that plays and sounds just as good as models twice the price (**cough, cough**...epiphone dot) its an incredibly good deal, and i'd even call it a steal.

Manufacturer Support
i haven't needed to call ibanez at all

The Wow Factor
i love the design of this guitar too. i've read more always been a suck for single cut-aways, and i think the rest of the body of the guitar is so unique that it has its own style. i love all of the artcore model's that ibanez puts out, and i'm looking to buy at least one other model sometime in the near future
