    • Excellent Instrument for the Price and Beautiful Too!
Color: Transparent Violet Sunburst Style: Guitar
Excellent fit and finish, along with a great sound and playability. Maybe I got lucky but mine arrived perfectly set up and with great intonation. Certainly a nice instrument for the price. The only cheap looking about it to me (though not flawed) was the light, reddish brown fretboard that I assumed was Richlite or some other synthetic material. But came to find out that it is an actual wood called Jatobá or Brazilian Redwood. The one thing I would change is a push-in friction fit whammy bar like on my way more expensive Charvel MJ San Dimas instead of the screw-in one on the Ibanez but then again vintage Strats and their reissues have the same screw-in whammy. bars. Overall I am very impressed with my purchase and would highly recommend it for a beginner's guitar or for someone who would prefer to travel or gig with something cheaper than their uber-expensive guitars. ... show more

    • Shread ready without the strings breaking
Color: Transparent Black Sunburst Style: Guitar
I have owned this guitar for a little over three months now, I’ve been writing my own tracks (which are very intense), and to my surprise this guitar is practically immortal, I shread this guitar every day and the strings still hold up like it’s brand new from day 1. Very beautiful, I highly recommend this guitar for new players as well, I was able to kind of teach myself with this guitar, the sound quality is very good. I have no bad opinion about it, the price is also priced just right for this amazing product! ... show more

    • Best Electric for the Money
Color: Transparent Red Burst Style: Guitar
I did a lot of research prior to buying this guitar. I've played guitar for 32 years and really wanted an inexpensive guitar that sounds good clean but can throw down some grit for rock and blues. I'm a Les Paul guy normally and wanted to mix things up. It arrived and I was super nervous because it sat in my unheated mail room of my place for some time and it was 18 degrees today. I brought it in and gave it an hour in the box to warm up prior to opening it up. It came well packed in a double box. It has a perfect set up on it straight out of the box which surprised me. I don't know if they do a set up at the factory or the third party that ships it does a set up prior to shipping it but it is perfect!!! It was also nearly in tune, which is unusual for a shipped guitar. This thing is really closer to a $400 to $500 guitar than $200 when looking at the features. Some things that really sold me. The tuning pegs are super smooth, much better than other guitars in the same price range. The neck isn't finished on the back and is sanded silky smooth. This makes it super smooth and fast when playing. Most other guitars in the price range spray a finish on the entire neck and when you are playing and your hands get hot your fingers start to stick. The pickups are far superior to anything you may find in any other $200 guitar (note they are not going to be as awesome as a $1000 guitar and up but I bet you could buy a $500 guitar with worse pickups) The tremolo is far better than anything else on the market for a guitar in the same price range. Most other guitars have thin white metal tremolos with thin springs that lose their spring quickly. Very Simple Controls. The 5 way switch covers the bridge pickups, the middle and one bridge pickup, the middle pickup alone, the middle and one neck pickups, and both neck pickups. The knobs are gain and level and operate on all pickups selected. Right away it was really easy to get clean tones and a nice crunch with little fiddling. Bottom line if you are buying your first electric guitar, a back up instrument, or something to just mess around with then this is the guitar for you!!! Well done Ibanez! ... show more

Some of the other reviews had me a bit worried about ordering this guitar, however, after getting my own I can say that this is a well made guitar for the price point. The color (on mine) was definitely more of a magenta than a true violet (not a deal breaker by any means) but I still love the instrument and it is quite beautiful, however this was the only reason I could think on not giving a 5 star review. The guitar was set up nicely right out of the box, all I had to do was tune the strings, but it is very playable and the intonation sounds good to me, and the neck relief was spot on, so, props to the luthier on a well made and properly setup guitar! It holds it's tune reasonably well. The frets are smooth and nothing sharp catches on my fingers; something I've seen happen on more expensive guitars and reputable brands... The nut is plastic, but there are no buzzing frets anywhere on the neck. The body is slender and stylish. The countours are very comfortable. It is weighty and feels solid. All of the pickups work well and the selector switch does fine, and I don't heard any crackling when I turn the knobs. Overall, it's a great guitar for intermediate players looking to get something a little nicer to practice with. The packaging was a little light, leaving something to be desired (especially with the tape job) but there was just enough foam to prevent it from being damaged in transit... Maybe I was just lucky, because sometimes the couriers can be a bit rough with package handling and I quite frequently get damaged boxes (and goods)... Coupled with some of the other reviews noting damage, this is a valid cause for concern. However, there wasn't a scratch on mine. ... show more

    • Probably the best entry level guitar on the market
Color: Transparent Emerald Burst Style: Guitar
Pros: An ergonomic cut out strat style shape. My favorite guitar shape for playability as sometimes I like to practice sitting down. It feels good to sit and have the guitar body curvature fit in shape to your leg and body. Also the double cutout makes upper frets easy. An amazing thin modern C-shape neck. I love this neck profile. A light and comfortable weight. For example: I have a friend that has a Les Paul standard that weighs 11 pounds. I used it before and when playing for long periods of time it begins to be uncomfortable. This Ibanez is nearly half that weight. The bridge pickup is bright, punchy, I love it! One of my fave tones after only a few days. Neck was flat. Action was a little highe out of the box, I had to lower the saddles but it's got really good action. No fret buzz. It feels great to play on this neck. Cons: The single coil middle pickup sucks. It's got that stratocaster style quack but worse. I just use the neck and bridge, and avoid it entirely (even when split with the neck and bridge). Fret edges are a little scratchy. The wood on the fretboard is dry, but a little lemon oil fixed it instantly. The strings it came with are rubbish. But that's always to be expected. I immediately weswitched it to some fresh Ernie Ball super slinky's and it's much better. Is it a perfect guitar? No... No such thing exists. But the small problems it has are solvable. A little change of strings, a little fret polish, a touch of lemon oil on the fretboard, a little adjustment of the saddle and it plays incredibly well. I may switch out the middle and neck pickups, that middle pickup would have been better not existing... However, I love the bridge which has a very nice bright sound clean and a very punchy and crunchy grunge sound with distortion. However after a little setup, the playability is amazing. I love this neck, it is thin, and comfortable. I love the weight, it's a light guitar. I love the cuts and the contours. That's what is most important to me, the playability. The neck is perfect too, no need to touch the truss rod. I was surprised how good the fretwork was with this, the frets are level, and aside from slightly unsmooth edges they feel good. But you know the best part: it's cheap. Because let's be completely honest most musicians don't get paid much (unless you are lucky). You are playing covers in bars and local joints sometimes making nothing but tips. Playing guitar is a hobby that costs a lot of both time and money. I don't have the luxury to buy a 5,000 guitar. ... show more

    • A great guitar for the price
Color: Transparent Violet Sunburst Style: Guitar
I just took delivery of the Ibanez GRX 6 guitar in transparent violet sunburst. This is my third venture into less expensive but highly rated guitar brands. I now own over 20 assorted. Most are upline and from Martin, Gretsch, Gibson, Fender, and Epiphone. This guitar plays and sounds as well as my Fender Telecaster. Delivery was two days earlier than promised. Box arrived in pristine condition. Set up was almost in tune. All strings tuned down 1/2 pitch from standard. Took about a minute to get it up and running. Finish is flawless, and it plays nice up and down all the frets. The HSH pickup setup is great. I get five distinct voices and all are great. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a real looker and player. Plays as well as any guitar costing $700 +. This was on sale and in stock just in time for the Holidays. The tuners are smooth as glass, and the OEM strings are even good. I will leave the OEM strings on for a month or so. ... show more
