zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:
It has everything I need.

Quality:
The guitar came perfectly set up, action and intonation were spot on. I can't find any flaws in the finish or binding. I normally don't like painted necks, but this guitar plays very nicely and I haven't had any issues with it.

Value:
I'm very happy with the value of this guitar. The sounds, the neck, the ease of playability make it a great buy (if you can find one).

Desirability:
V's are always cool.

Sound:
I play in a covers band that does everything from 50's pop to current rock, and this guitar covers all of the bases nicely. The D-activators don't really do single coil chime, but they are plenty sparkly for clean stuff. They put out a nice distortion of course, but they really, really shine with a medium blues overdrive. They are crunchy and articulate and sustain for days. This guitar is much more than a 'metal machine'.

Overall:
If this guitar was stolen, I would likely buy another, assuming I could find one. It is light and comfortable to play, has a nice aesthetic, and it sounds awesome.

Feature:
As far as Ibanez's go, this is great. No floyd rose and Edge Pro or anything. Just a nice bridge and some great pick-ups. A neck-through guitar for the masses!!

Quality:
DEFINATELY the best Ibanez I've played. Its beautiful! Comes with a case, come on..SCORE!! I've had it for about a year now, no problems WHAT SO EVER.

Value:
It's not a bad retail price, and most stores sell it cheaper than I think it's worth. The cut alone of this guitar is brilliant, and the equiptment inside of it... mmhmmm.

Desirability:
I first saw this guitar (white with black pin stripe) hanging up in a guitar store and fell in love. Its sex apeal is definately strong. I played it for quite some time, and sure enough, bought it not too long after. Everytime I show off my guitars, I always get the most compliments on the looks of this Ibanez.

Sound:
Of the three other Ibanez guitars I own, this defiantely has the best tone for the music I want to make! This guitar really brings out the best in my playing.

Ease of Use:
The neck is great, the bridge is great, the weight is fantastic! Perfectly balanced, easy to play.

Support:
I had a small issue with string tension, it was my friend's fault, but the warranty covered a quick tune-up from the guitar store it was purchased at.

Overall:
I hope to own this guitar for the rest of my life. It's sheer beauty in the looks, the tone, EVERYTHING about it is perfect. Find this guitar and BUY IT!

Quality:
it is very durable but lightweight. it is made out of basswood so its very lightweight and still gets great tone. iv banged it around a few times and there isnt a scratch on it!

Value:
it is very cheap for the quality. one of ibanez's greater products.

Desirability:
its a flying v for gods sake! who wouldn't want one!

Sound:
this is a beast! it comes stock with dimarzio d activators which bring out some awesome metal tones.

Ease of Use:
no effects needed to get ur heavy metal riffs. just turn on a little distortion and you have some serious tone.

Support:
havent had to deal with it yet but im sure its fine.
