the violin is not the eye tape is basic, no frills but it was worth the money. no more, no less.
my tuning from low to acute D3, A2, D3, A3, D4, G4, B4, E5. Wholesale Drop D with the 7th and a serious unison D in 8th. Drawing of 0.65 A for serious. The biggest pull possible on guitar mcaniques keeping a proper voltage Thurs 0.52 for D3.
the remaining 0.10, 0.13, 0.17, 0.26, 0.36.
tuning is unique but it has to I took an 8-string

UTILIZATION

Ergonomics Ibanez RG trs so enjoyable to play a bit heavy but comfortable nothing wrong it's good.
for good against the run trs comfortable despite the width.

SOUNDS

I play a Laney VC50 2X12 2X12 cabinet with in extention. the level of output is standard. for her it's not clear Fender and it's not the same as with Alnico nuences but clean, and prcis a bit hot. APRS is the job of the amp and / or effect. Ibanez's not really characters but which pletes the will of the guitarist.
the same but with the crunch Laney you get to have something "crmeux".
Distortion in the Laney is not a high gain amp but it is usable metal, my rglages with a Dimarzio Dual sound and Norton taient distortion and gain 10 4.
with ibanez 8 I lowered the gain level of distortion remains unchanged.
fulfilled its rle this guitar and why I bought it. I am satisfied with my purchase

OVERALL OPINION

I've been playing for 15 years and I had 25 guitars (acoustic nylon and steel, and electric bass of course) on which 3 measures. so I think in hindsight to judge the instrument.
not a custom shop guitar, but this served its rle and why it is intended. RVer should not do with flamenco.
so it's a good buy.

I changed the tuning to exploit certain advantages from the 8 strings.
the 1st to the 8th: G, D, E, F, C, G, D, A is less than a standard tone with a rope supplmentaire in serious and acute;
agreement as well, we can tackle the phrass 3 octaves without dmancher, this allows particularly prcis work and keep a certain effectiveness of play
I work mainly in the clear principle of play
