Feature:
Obviously the pickups arent EMG actives or anything but they are still quite decent pickups and the 5 way switch makes a large sound difference too. The tremelo is fun to.

Quality:
Very solid...i dropped it down 3 stairs on the first day i had it and it was still in tune after.

Value:
Great price for a lot of guitar

Desirability:
The guitar looks...im 40 and im trying to find the right word....maybe HARDCORE!

Sound:
Ive been playing for 20 years and am stuck on classical and jazz rock...but, I am a huge vai and satch fan. I have an array of fenders and gibsons but they just didnt cut it for satch and vai covers so i picked this guitar up. Sounds incredible...i couldnt believe something that sounded so good right out of the factory was so cheap.

Ease of Use:
By far the easiest guitar ive ever played...seriously.

Support:
Never had to call them.

Overall:
Go buy it...it sticks out like a sore thumb in my collection but i pick it up now more than even my vintage 60's strat.

Quality:
The quality of the wood on this thing SUCKS. I adjusted the springs on it and the wood just broke. Also, the bridge is one GIANT PIECE OF CRAP because the metal it is made of is just the worst thing to use. The pickups dont sound too good either. I have to replace my rg370dx after a year of playing it because it is just falling apart on me.

Value:
It's not bad for the price (except if you buy the fancy paint job

Sound:
This guitar sounds ok for a beginner guitar.

Ease of Use:
When set up, the neck on this guitar is VERY fast since its a wizard II.

Support:
I haven't dealt with ibanez support.

It came with everything you need to fix and play the guitar exept picks.

Quality:
looks great and sounds great

Value:
it is worth every penny

Desirability:
i bought it in the red stream and it is absolutely amazing

Sound:
Sounds aboulutely beutiful. Verry responsive, and it takes a light touch to play even for an electric.

Ease of Use:
to get great sound out of this guitar is like stealing candy from a baby. verry playable

Support:
i havent had to deal with them yet

Overall:

Feature:
This guitar came with an extra spring a few allen wrenches and a trem bar...One thing like about this guitar is the edge III bridge, many don't like it but you have to be patient with any floating tremolo system...you just got to look and see how the mechanics work. Also i love the wizard II neck and the black stream version of the guitar

Quality:
I think the quality is awesome in this guitar...it could definitley be a professional guitar if you change the pick ups and get very comfortable with it

Value:
this product could be sold for 600+ easily im just glad the price is where it is now

Desirability:
OH the black stream is beautiful and gives a really nice finished hot look to it

Sound:
The Pick ups are ok...its just not the sound that im looking for...all though i don't mind its something that i can live with for now eventually i will probably switch to emgs or sd's...btw great clean sound

Ease of Use:
This guitar is pretty easy to use easy to get a good sound when you finally get it tuned...the only thing is again with the floating tremolo's be patient and mess around a little with it and look up forums if you get stuck

Support:
not yet....I've just searched the web for answers

Overall:
i think ill be satisfied for a while :p

Feature:
got some allen keys and a spring. "GIG BAGS" would it kill IBENAZ and some of the other companys out there to throw in a $24.99 gig bag. IBENAZ gives them out with their $199.99 jump start sets along with picks ,and an amp. stop cheap out on us.

Quality:
it's a beautiful guitar. looks like IBENAZ really paid attention to detail. it kind of brings up my point about lack of a gig bag.

Value:
worth the price. great deal

Desirability:
it a hot looking guitar ,but honestly they all look pretty much the same.

Sound:
i like the pick-ups ,and with the 5 way switch you can go from blues to metal in a snap.

Ease of Use:
for me the personally i found the edge 111 tremelo to be a pain in the neck. i read other reviews and they were all positive. so i probably just wasn't patient enough.

Support:
havn't need service

Overall:
for one reason or another the guitar not right for me. i'm returning it and getting an ESP.

Feature:
It came fully assembled, not much accessories except for spare parts and a whammy bar. This guitar has everything you need except for a case and a strap.

Quality:
One of Ibanez's Best to me. This guitar is worth much more than what I payed for it. Again, the pickups are not bad for the price but you can easily change that.

Value:
This guitar could easily be sold for +$600. And I bought it for $450. YOU DO THE MATH!

Desirability:
First of all, I bought the black w/ the grey stream tribal graphics and when I pulled it out of the box, I just stared at it with awe. This guitar has the coolest paint job especially for an Ibanez. Since Ibanez is such a good brand in guitars, I decided to try it out. Overall It is a great guitar and I would suggest this one to anyone that wants one.

Sound:
Personally, I think this guitar has a great sound to it. But I think that it would have much more appeal if it had EMG or Seymour Duncan pickups. Overall, this guitar has a cool edgey sound you are looking for, for the average hard rocker or metal head.

Ease of Use:
The frets on this guitar are awesome! They give you plenty of space for your fingers and I really dig the shark tooth fret inlays. Its really easy to play and very comfortable. All you need to do is switch on which pickups you want to use and rock out.

Support:
I had problems w/ the shipping and asked them to fix it. Well, they didn't but it still arrived at my house so...I'm not complaining.

Overall:
Pretty much all guitars to me are the same. You plug in the effects and amp and you will get the same sound (practically). I bought this guitar because it is meant for Hard Rockers/Metal artists and that was what sparked me into getting it because those are my favorite genres of music. If you like ANY ROCK OR METAL BUY THIS GUITAR... ITS YOUR DESTINY!

Feature:
basic rg hsh vol tone 5 way switch. edge 3 is crap compared to ofr or original edge.

Quality:
mine is Korean and is really good. compared to my 1990 rg550 this good for the money. if you change the pickups it can be a really professional guitar.

Value:
for the price its awesome

Desirability:
ibanez rg are my favorite guitars the shape is beautiful and some of the early colors are amazing.

Sound:
pickups are too muddy and break up too easily. not good for clean sounds

Support:
never had to deal with ibanez

Overall:
i will have this guitar for a long time. with new pickups it is really good.

Feature:
Bueno la verdad es que esta guitarra trae todas las mierdas que necesitaba para sonar mejor, buenos trastes, las pastillas suenan diaverga muy potentes y sencibles, la verdad es que con menos esfuerzo consigo sacar notas que con mi guitarra anterior eran casi imposibles, los trastes de tipo Jumbo me cuadran. Ha y el Floyd Rose esta bastante excelente.

Quality:
Excelente, esta hecha para el desturke, metal y Fetidez.

Value:
Regular las prefiero gratis!

Desirability:
Si me dio gana de hacerle el amor.

Sound:
Definitivamente suena diacachimba!, jamas habia logrado que mis riff sonaran mejor, ahora yo creo sonar como los grandes.

Ease of Use:
Uuuuuuuuu! ahora soy un Dios del olimpo, el manual de usuario casi no dice nada puesto que es el mismo que tren todas las guitarra Ibanez pero bueno en internet otros usuarios si que ayudan bastante.

Support:
Ni idea, la verdad es que nunca lo he usado, no se si me serviria de mucho.

Overall:
Lo que dure a mi estilo de uso, bueno lo que aguante.

Quality:
ok heres the bad part. my friend bought this guitar in the spring of 07 and it worked fine and looked fine but about 3-4 mounths later the neck pickup stop working and then another mounth or 2 went by and the bridge pickup stoped working.

Value:
its a good price.

Feature:
Great bang for the buck! Really well worth the money. ZZounds.com is great. Will definitely buy from them again!

Quality:
Brilliant! Made of decent woods. Maintains its tune. Great action. Although the strings got caught in my sack hairs while performing the reverse monkey dive with my neighbor's wife. Ouch! But apart from that, it is great quality!

Value:
Good value. Great product!

Desirability:
This is the bomb. You have to get one and rock! I'm serious, dude/dudette. This is well worth your hard earned cash. If you're into metal as much as I am (and I'm a nut), you've got to purchase one now. Just keep it away from your sack and you'll be fine.

Sound:
This monster axe rocks out! It's got the perfect tone for thrash metal.

Ease of Use:
It's guitar. So unless you don't know how to play one, it's extremely easy.

Support:
N/A Haven't had a reason to call them. Just the hospital for my aforementioned accident with my sack.

Overall:
Excellent! Buy it now. You won't regret it!

Guitar was better than one I paid a lot more for. Couldn't build or assemble one for wahat
