    Ibanez SZ520

    I bought this guitar new at Cleveland Music (Cleveland, TN) for around 450-500ish, I don't remember EXACTLY how much, but I know it retails for 599.

    I like pretty much everything about it. the pickups sound just like an ibanez should...you get a big fat clean sound, and when you turn on the distortion it rips! It's an extremely pretty guitar, it comes in two colors: Gold Amber Burst, and Blueish burst. I got the gold one, but they are both pretty. The fireball at the 12th fret is cool also.

    The one thing I can say that I don't like about it is that there are no dots on the frets, and it takes a little bit of time to get used to it, and in dimly lit areas it's kind of hard to see what…

    The quality is great, everything on this guitar is pretty rugged. I've had it for probably around 3-4 months now and it's my main axe now.

    Overall, it's a great guitar...awesome sounding for hard rock music. The only downfall is the lack of fret dots.

    I love playing the guitar because you get a sche trs good sound but its against the trsmtal saturated and trs are a little more complicated grate

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 years and I am quite happy
    I find it enjoyable to play without amp because it makes no difference to the quality of its sound (strength) but the small problem is the mahogany neck varnish little GNER for Access in acute if you play it long
    I have tried many MODEL before it is on it is that I have the crack
    report quality price looks good to me
    yes I made the same choice if I change my guitar one day I want to say it has a silent Fidler companion whom I could always trust
