"want one? you should definitely buy one!!!!"
is expect to have this guitar for at least the next couple of years with minimum to no issues with the craftsman ship of this guitar.
Sound
the pickup's give the sound a very hard core and gritty sound perfect for any heavy metal player. the bridge is perfect for palm muting and the variety of top;bottom;or both pickups even that much more appealing...not to mention the easy to navigate fret board.
Features
the toggle switch in my opinion is the most useful feature being able to switch in and out of pickups in a breeze.
Ease of Use
takes a while to tune to your playing style. but when you do get it in place it's freaking awesome...!!!!!
Quality
the nice and flat gray body goes perfect with the black head stock. on the road use definitely!!!!
Value
since it's not a handmade guitar it's value for resale is very low...

Ibanez GAX75 Customer Review
Buy it, if you are considering this instrument, do it. it will be one of the best guitars you hev ever played
Sound
The sound is very rich, and easy to listen to. The only problem i have had is more distortion makes it a bit fuzzy.
Features
The drop d tuner is amazing, and very simple to use. however, it is angled so that it is a bit hard to lock/ unlock. very sturdy piece of equipment. the body is, however, a bit wide.
Ease of Use
A very easy, simple, clean cut instrument
Quality
manufactured very well.
Value
very good price for a very good instrument
The Wow Factor
the colors, the body, even the rich color of the neck is very appealing

"Good looks, good sound, bad ass guitar."
I plan on playing this for years to come, as long as it lasts, i will play it. I mean, there are other guitars out there, but for right now, i'm stuck on this guitar.
Sound
I'm really picky with the sound of my guitars. This one has very good highs, and even better lows played through a clean setting. And combine with my Blackheart tube amp and BOSS MT-2 distortion, i get a very full, rich, driving sound. At times it feels sounds like my guitar is actually screaming.
Features
The drop d switch is really of no use to me because i play in dropped D already. the pickups sound good but could be replaced with something more appealing. my choice, seymour duncans.
Ease of Use
It's not hard to make this guitar sound good. Clean, it sounds beautiful. With (my fav combo) fuzz and distortion, this guitar will growl like a demon and scream bloody murder.
Quality
A pretty well made guitar. the cutaways are not deep enough, so you can't really get to the last few frets. the drop d switch is also hard to use, if you were to use it. kinda wish i had a better bridge, but other than that i have no complaints.
Value
there are other guitars out there that have more value to me, but this ones a keeper. a few mods and this thing is worth it's weight in gold.
Manufacturer Support
i did upgrade my pickups, but i went through a buddy of mine that works on guitars, and i'm glad i did. with new duncans, this beast was finally let out of the cage. it sounds even better than it did. looking forward to moding it some more.
The Wow Factor
The color is the first thing that grabbed my eye. very metal like. love the flat finish. then i played it. sounded so good i bought it right after that.

"Ibanez GAX75"
This guitar is decent at best. It is a beginner guitar, however for the price there is better. I have a collection of guitars (16) and this one is my least favorite. Don't get me wrong, it has a good sound (with the right equipment) but the cut of this guitar is unimpressive not to mention the drop switch never properly worked or kept in in tune when used. I eventually just bypassed it. If you want a double cutaway swing for an Epiphone SG, a Mexican Strat, or Stagg RS500. Ibanez is a good brand (my Jet King II is among my favorite guitars) however I want the best bang for my buck and this guitar just doesn't deliver.
