«  the guitar tear the pants! »

Published on 07/11/11 at 10:41
is an Indonesian, mahogany body, maple neck driver, jumbo frets, fixed bridge gibraltar Custom, DiMarzio D Activator X (fire!), metallic gray sunburst finish.
the neck 22 frets rosewood fingerboard is a type fast, accurate and the notes sound good.
was on the dashboard, 2 volumes, 1 tone and a 3-position selector for the pickups.

UTILIZATION

the handle is a delight in terms of the agreement held, speed and accuracy of the notes, you can feel the consistency of scores when playing ...
the big downside of this guitar is its weight!
it's super heavy!
but hey, it must be that there is a defect or something to say ...
access is super sharp, the solo you want, here it is used almost on a silver dish is so easy ...
we get a very big sound for this guitar (there are some who say "shovel" and I hate it, no one uses his guitar to go for the garden anyway!), the D Activator are super powerful, but the big side of the coin is that we accommodate them by reducing the volume to play something other than saturax hairy and snatched the slip ....

SOUNDS

for sounds, DiMarzio are about the powder!
is big, very big and it will reduce to two knobs to get a clear sound that you do not invade the soundscape!
I tested it in a 30w line6 Well, it slammed me in the ears like a tube amp! (In the clear with all the knobs to 12 except the bass, I made two because there are already too many of the microphones)
with distortion, it's nirvana! although I would have preferred this type of EMG guitar DiMarzio's really a vintage signature .... but it's powerful (see too powerful at times ..) and you fraudra some time to assay the output level of the guitar ... but then it's all good!

OVERALL OPINION

I tried it in a music store last Saturday and it's frankly a super skyscraper!
I too tried to scratch in the past, yes, force, here is almost the subscription music store to test all the guitars that come out ...
as, color, ergonomics, handling, the shred, inlays, finish tip-top, the sound of the D Activator in saturax and clear cases delivered!
the least, its weight and the fact that I am not sponso by ibanez!
I find the price / quality ratio exemplary ibanez made very hard with this model!
I'll see if I buy it ..... it belongs in any case of my favorites, explore shape, handle crazy, warm sounds good, what more?!
