Feature:
I was impressed by the simplicity of the controls. One volume, one tone, and one 5-position pickup selector--that's it. Guitars with 50 knobs and switches annoy me. Unless you are extremely particular, you'll be able to get the tone that you're looking for. Also, the Butterscotch Transparent finish is really, really nice! I just bought it because it's $50 cheaper, but it looks much better than it does in the pictures. The nice finish kinda makes the guitar 'feel' like a higher quality guitar. Obviously the hardware is not top of the line. Don't expect it to be. The hardware is very functional but it's not eye catching. For my purposes, I don't need it to look pretty though, so I'm happy.

Quality:
As I said before, the Butterscotch Transparent finish is really, really nice! The guitar has a healthy weight to it and feels solid. It doesn't feel flimsy or like it's going to break, in fact, quite to opposite. I was looking for a guitar I could take everywhere with me and not have to worry about it. And this guitar feels like it will take quite a beating.

Value:
The value for me is fantastic. I wanted a guitar I could take everywhere I go and not have to tote around multiple >$1,000 guitars. I wanted something I could get a scratch in and not worry about it. But I also wanted a guitar that sounds decent and has decent action. In all of these respects, the Ibanez completely fit the bill. Now I can leave my expensive equipment at home where it's safe and still have fun jamming at friend's houses, etc.

Desirability:
Umm, I wouldn't show up with it at Battle of the Bands or anything. People that don't know anything about guitars will probably say, "nice guitar". People that know a lot about guitars will probably try to kick your butt--haha. Just kidding. If you want this guitar, it's because you're just starting out or, like me, want something that'll take a little abuse.

Sound:
I haven't played all of the top of the line electrics, but it sounds great to me. I compare it to my Les Paul, and the sound quality of the Ibanez is surprising--not AS good, but close. I was worried about plugging in the Ibanez and hearing a lot of buzz or hiss, but there is none of that. The pickups in this guitar are quiet and they reproduce the sound very well. If used with distortion or other heavy effects, it sounds great. It sounds okay clean too, but drier and not as full as my Les Paul.

Ease of Use:
As far as play-ability goes, it's decent, but you will probably want to do some fine tuning. My guitar came with a buzz in the E string and way too much gap between the strings and the fretboard towards the upper frets. I'm also going to put some lighter strings on it. It plays a little stiff. The neck seems just a little on the thick side (and I have big hands). The fretboard kind of has a chalkboard feel. Hopefully this is all something that can be adjusted or worked out by playing.

Feature:
The whammy bar effect is effective enough and if you get a distortion pedal this guitar is perfect.

Quality:
VERY good quality, this guitar is hardcore, I don't have a strap lock so it falls alot and it still plays perfectly.

Value:
This is a great guitar and it very cheap as well. It was my second guitar and I wouldn't trade it for a Gibson.

Desirability:
Hot looks great play what more do you want.

Sound:
This Ibanez has a great hard rock sound to it. But i would not suggest it for anything else.

Support:
1 year warranty what else do I need to say.

Overall:
GREEEEEEEAAAAAAAAT guitar get one if you are a beginer intermediate or professional. It gives you a hard rock feel you cant get anywhere else.

Feature:
i haven't yet installed the bar, but it should be easy and sound better.

Quality:
looks beautiful.

Value:
GREAT PRODUCT FOR A GREAT PRICE.

Desirability:
No stickers needed.

Sound:
this guitar kicks ass. I love the way it sounds, feels, and plays. great price also.

Support:
i haven't yet had any problems with the guitar or company.

Overall:
Won't be looking for another electric guitar for a while.

Feature:
well obviouslly you can tell i love this guitar. i liked all the features and i say leave it as it is!

Quality:
it seems that it will last a long time. i have notices any defects or anything it still looks brand new.

Desirability:
the moment i saw it I fell in love! i took me a very long time to decied which guitar I wanted, I looked for several weeks finally going back to this my first choice!

Sound:
well, I'm not the best guitar player. but i have friends that are really good and they say it's one of the nicest guitars they have ever heard so yeah i think it sounds really good with my amp.

Support:
i have not had to deal with the company

Overall:
I will always love this product because it is my first electric guitar!

Feature:
decent tremolo for this price

Quality:
no complaints about quality. for the price it is excellent

Value:
i have 8 guitars. Gibson, Schecter, Ibanez and Alvarez. This guitar is easily the best bang for the buck.

Desirability:
i got the butterscotch color. really nice finish

Sound:
the stock pickups are weak

Ease of Use:
plays great. nice thin fast neck

Support:
did not need support

Overall:
it was better than i expected. I needed a guitar with tremolo to play with around the house, and this looked like a pretty good deal. I bought a Duncan Performer humbucker for the bridge position, some Sperzel locking tuners, and for that $100 extra investment, I now have a smoking little rocker for $260 investment. Very pleased.

Feature:
Stays in tune, mostly. Whammy bar is USELESS, as the strings are pulled out of tune very quickly. Pickups need work, but this is a beginner guitar, so no hate there.

Quality:
Take basic care of it and it's fine. No calls to service, no service at all needed except string changes, which seem to be more and more often... mostly because I'm getting more and more addicted.

Value:
Great for a beginner and good on up to an intermediate player.

Desirability:
PERFECT beginner guitar and keeps anyone busy. Pick up and wail. Simple, practical, yet attractive aesthetically.

Sound:
My one gripe is that it seems like some sound gets lost in the shuffle, as if the pickups can't keep up. However, as a beginner it was amazing. Now that I've been playing awhile I've found that I'm pushing it well past what it was intended to do. That said, I can still rock out most of what I want. Get a good amp. On the basic Crate 12W I started with I was immensely frustrated. Now, with a Line 6 Spider II 75w, I'm much happier, and an upgrade guitar-wise is in order soon.

Support:
Did not have to deal with them.

Overall:
It's about time to move up, I've enjoyed this Ibanez so much that I'm looking at another, probably an RG.

Feature:
The neck is awesome. I also like the HSS setup. The 5 way switch is good also, you can really tell the difference between each different position.

Quality:
Ibanez makes awesome guitars. hands down. Any Ibanez guitar will do you good.

Value:
This guitar is ridiculous for the price. This guitar definatly should be at least 250$$.

Sound:
This guitar is good for everything from metal to blues. Both of which I play alot.

Support:
dont know havent had to use it.

Overall:
This guitar should last me a while, although i am going to get a Jackson in a couple of months.

Feature:
hmm....the shape very rockin dude! the color are very unics!

Quality:
yup3!it has the quality that we 1...

Value:
i hope ibanez will raise up the price as much as the quality....it has the same quality like others!

Desirability:

Sound:
The sound is SUPERB!!!!i has RG2EX1 n still like this model...the Tremolo is good. Same Quality as theexpensive 1...i never know why Ibanez made this model inexpensive...but sure they wrong bout the price...
