The sound is very impressive. Plugged in to a combo amp with effects, or even just playing it acoustic. There is more of an acoustic punch for the thin body, then i expected. For the price of ths guitar... It sounds very nice. Sounds like a more expensive guitar then it is.

The Piezo pickup with the 2 band EQ are much better then i expected.

This has great workmanship put into the making of this guitar, at the price it is sold for. I have an uncle who has played guitar for 43 years, and he was especially impressed over all with the sound, and sleek look of this fine guitar.

This plays like a $500-$600 guitar at the least. For the price of this AE (Acoustic/Electric), you can't go wrong!

I rated this section a 10, because i haven't needed any support for this product. I would say that if you need support for a product you bought, then something has to be wrong.

The diangular shaped sound hole enhances the overall slim body with a double cutaway. The rosewood fingerboard is nice with a medium action, to help bring out the punch of the acoustics. The headstock of this great deal, has a classy look to it without having all the strings bending to awkward postions to reach the tuning pegs.

sounds pretty good with the Behringer acoustic amp i bought at the same time. i'll probably change the strings though

ZZounds even sent me the 9-volt battery. Nicely package.

this is the best acoustic electric i've ever played (for the price). i once owned a takamine but that don't compare to this ibanez

quality craftsmanship for the price

this is the best value out there for the serious and not so serious musician.

i think ibanez is the most under rated guitar company out there. their products are right in line with the higher end, more expensive names

its lite. it feels a little fragile (but its not), its very comfortable and easy to manipulate

Sounds a little thin unplugged, but through my 65-watt Kustom acoustic amp it sounds very good. I think it sounds best with either 10-47 or 11-50 phosphor bronze strings (D'Addario EXP's are great). I installed a graphite nut which helped the tone & tuning stability on mine. Had to replace the input jack after about 2 years. Otherwise, a great take-anywhere value axe! Well worth the money. It probably wouldn't work well in a recording situation, but you can jam with the best of 'em in the garage!

It could use a 3-band EQ rather than the 2-band it comes with. It has very good quality enclosed tuners. You'll want to replace the plastic strap buttons with some Straplocks or at least some chrome standard ones. I wish it had a solid spruce or cedar top-would sound better than the laminated one. It does include an extra bridge saddle with shims, a hex key wrench for the truss rod, and an extra bridge pin (at least, mine did.)

The TCY10 is a solidly-built axe with a good gloss finish. I got the black one, and when I got it there were no faults or blemishes that I could see. As I mentioned earlier, I did have to replace the input jack-it got to where it would pop and crackle loudly if the cord was moved much. I think it will last me a lifetime (I take care of my babies!). Wish it had a pick guard, though.

This little gem is a great value!

Can't comment on the support, I do my own repair work and have never needed it. Ibanez has a great reputation, though. I have no worries that they'll be there if I need them.

I just love the funky Talman shape-it's unique and partly what attracted me to this axe in the first place. It also makes a fine travel guitar! Very comfortable to hold & play-more like an electric than an acoustic. Light as a feather.

I compared to some other guitars, the Fender Stratacoustic in particular. I did intend to purchase the Fender until I tried out the Ibanez. I could not in good conscience go with the Fender, it felt and sounded kind of cheap yet cost $100 more than the Ibanez.

I have not had to deal with Ibanez, but have owned an electric Ibanez RG570 since 1996. It too has been an outstanding guitar.

It's my first acoustic guitar, and did not want some country bumpkin looking thing. I'm pretty much an old school metal type of guy.

When you have a guitar that sounds like it fell out of Heaven, then you know that you've hit the jackpot. I've been playing my TCY10 for about a year, recently I ordered the beautiful midnight blue TCY10. Whenever I strike a note it sounds like the clouds just opened up, and believe me, that's not my guitar playing that makes those beautiful sounds either.

It's great. I can hear it perfectly, and it works with just about any sound board.

When it does get a finger print or two, you can just wipe it off. It stays in tune for like ever.

I'm suprised that it's this cheap.

They have a toll free number.

It's beautiful! I love the sound of acoustic, but I envy the look of the electric, with this thing, it's like the best of both worlds.

active musician, I have a band.

rock, alternative,

Like the brighter tone it provides. Though the tone controls are just the treble and bass, it does provide a good final result. When playing unplugged, the "amount" of sound is weak, specially when playing close to other acoustics or a piano, but hook it to a good amp and the it can deliver a nice, rich and warm tone.

No accessories provided. The first impression is that the guitar will not survive longer... it feels soo light. The nut and the strap buttons are made out of some hard plastic material... that's pretty bad, so I have replaced the buttons and am looking forward to have a custom made nut replacement. The tuners are good, the bridge is also ok (no extra need here)... The truss rod equipped neck is wonderful. Very comfortable !

Looks great when took out of the box. The finish is pretty good, no dust around. The original strings are, as usual, cheapos so the the first thing was to install fresh Elixirs and re-adjust the truss rod. I give it 7 because of those plastic cheap pieces.

I think it's somewhat too priced. I've paid $170 on a blemish item cause I think more than that is way too much for this product.

Haven't had it long enough to need ...

Boy, is this guitar a charm ! That oval cut hole and the double cutaways makes an impression !

jazz, bossa-nova, gospel, pop, light rock...

I was very satisfied with the sound of this guitar, especially from an acoustic-electric.

I have had no problems with the guitar.

This guitar is super hot.

This is a very small bodied guitar so the lows sound a little like playing a cardboard box. It gets better when you play it plugged in.

Simple guitar. Nice pickup.

oobvously when i first bought it the priginal strings were not up to the standard of the guitar it self but when i replaced them i found a much brighter sound when unplugged and when plugged in in it had a really tight solid sound that could compete with any of my more expensive elec/acou

nothing special just nice and simple but the piezo pickup were much better then i expected

when i first got it it felt like it was going to smash but ive had it for 3 years now and the only damage on it are small scratches from just general wear and tear

this is incredibly cheap for what it is when i first was shown it in the shop i thought the retailer had given me a guitar in the wrong price range that i had asked for (+)but i was pleasntly surprised

i havent needed any service on this guitar, but my past experiences with ibanez have been very very easy

it looks rocky yet classy at the same time a very atrractive guitar

This guitar will last u a life time, its sound is so soft and yet powerful of an acoustic, and u can also use overdrive to make it sound just as hardcore as metal groups.

Looks like an electric, looks pretty badass to me

very sexy, haha
