Feature:
Three position switch gives a lot of sounds. Very simple to use. I actually don't mind where the switch is located.

Quality:
Excellent finish. Only wish for hight quality tuners.

Value:
I think it is an excellent product for the price. Comparing to even the Epiphones. Forget the Gretsch, Gibson, etc...

Desirability:
Pretty in Orange!

Sound:
This is my only electric guitar. I'm actuall a bass player and wanted an electric guitar to mess around with. I love to be able to get the John Lennon sounds and great with blues too. Play it through a Randall stereo chorus amp. You can play it loud and actually feel the feedback!

Support:
N/A

Overall:
I's definitely get another one if I broke this one.

Feature:
This guitar has some of the nicest tone options I've seen. I was looking for an inexpensive guitar with good tone variety, and this is it.

Quality:
This is a great quality guitar, even if it cost $600. The finish is beateous, I have the brown burst, and everything feels very solid. I happen to like the tuners, but replacing them wouldn't be a bad thing.

Value:
This is by far the best archtop $300 can buy. I would buy another one in a snap. (I recently tried out a $500 Dean archtop that didn't have anything against the artcore)

Desirability:
This is a hot guitar. When I first saw it I knew I wanted it. The finish is impeccable and the hardware and binding gives it some seriously sexy class.

Sound:
I play jam band type stuff and this guitar is great. I'll admit that the humbuckers are kinda cheesy, but for 3 bones, who's to argue?! Great tone options, almost as good as a Strat!

Support:
My first artcore came and had a serious neck problem. I was able to send it back, and within a week, I had a new one. Kudos to Ibanez.

Overall:
I don't think that I will get another guitar for a long time now that I have my artcore. The feedback resistance is great, and I was even able to get a nice country Tele sound. (I was looking at getting a Tele before I saw this)

Feature:
It came with a few allen renches, but other than that, there's nothing much except volume and tone controls for the crappy humbuckers. Be sure to restring one at a time, because the bridge will literally slide off, kiddies.

Quality:
The guitar based on looks is nice. I liked the finish and the hardware is really nice and it's a very handsome guitar..until you play it.

Desirability:
Those suits at Ibanez know their stuff. Nice looking stuff at sub-par quality. They know how to hook people in and sometimes, sad to say, it works.

Sound:
The tone is nice when you play it through an amp clean, but switch to gain and it's downhill from there. Horrible feedback no matter which humbucker is selected. You get a decent sound with the bridge humbucker, but it's totally flat and dull sounding.

Overall:
I hope I can sell this thing and hopefully get close to what I paid for it.
