I received this guitar, and unfortunately have to return it. I am used to playing multiscale guitars, 8 strings, but this one is sort of an anomaly. Everything on it screams amazing. However, setting the guitar up proved to be a bit of trouble. Its not straight forward, as there are 4 different screws (hex) to adjust per saddle. Two for height, one to release the saddle to adjust up and down, and the last being the intonation screw (hex). The guitar QC from Ibanez Indonesia was not great. Truss rod wheel was loose, and the guitar took way too many turns just to adjust the next slightly. I dont want to stop anyone from buying this guitar, but just make sure you pay close attention to the truss rod spoke wheel. Some of the great features wereAmazing neck, felt great to playLocking tuners were awesome from GotohBridge was actually very thought out, and held the strings wellLooks really coolSome things that were not so great:Fishman Moderns sound wonky, its an acquired taste I guessBridge was a pain to setuptruss rod spoke wheel was looseplastic nut would cut below your index finger when playing the first fret which hurts (multiscale problems)Again, not trying to stop anyone from buying this guitar. If you get a good one, keep it and have fun, it actually is an amazing guitar
