This guitar is hands down the nicest ibanez I've ever played. I've owned over 6 different prestiges from Ibanez and this one is by far the best playing and best looking one of them all. The pictures do not do it justice. It's beauty is something that has to be observed in person. This guitar imo rivals the j customs in looks and playability. If you're on the fence on buying this *Shia LaBeouf Voice* just do it!!!
