Appeared and disappeared in 2007 this guitar is for the X series of Ibanez

* Which country was it made? (USA, Japan, Mexico, France ...)
In China, as reminds the sticker pasted behind the head
* How many frets, what kinds of microorganisms and their configuration?

22 frets, tight sleeve, GUITAR MAHOGANY NECK AND BODY, I do not know the dimensions but it's pretty agréble, except towards the end of the handle, but it's a matter of personal taste and in no way called into Because of the violin sheet for the price.

What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?

Fixed bridge crossing type (Gibraltar I believe), which promotes maximum sustain.

What are the settings (volume, tone, micro switch ...)?

A volume (really progressive, a treat), a tone, a 3-position selector Toogle to select his microphone VK.

A guitar that would have features "Les Paul" while having a nice shape. Indeed, as the previous opinion, when I saw the pictures of the new Iceman, I almost screamed. But it is much better in person than on the official photo Iceman is therefore always.

UTILIZATION



* The handle is it nice?
Yes, provided you love the sleeves a bit round and a play that encourage rather than rhythmic solo (I have a RG to do this). I think I took my bad but it sometimes I scratch on the saddle with my index quad I play on the high strings of the first hoop ... That's okay, just a little confusing.
* Access to acute (last string) Is it easy?
The picture speaks by itself. The heel is not too high and access to the latest boxes is no problem

Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?

Exellent, the guitar is ridiculously light for mahogany. Form, we like it or not, I love. And most importantly, with a good strap (Planet Waves Joe Satriani) it does not sting at all and remains the same straight nose when I loose, no problem on that side the. In possitive seat, the body will naturally hold on your thanks to a very nice groove.

Do you get a good sound easy? ...
Plug and Play ... What else?

SOUNDS

Well I stop answering questions, I ve had enough
I travesrsé several musical eras and my nickname betraying me, I can not hide that I bought this guitar when I was a fan of reckless System of a Down Daron Malakian and above. So I played many SOAD Nu Metal and when I bought this guitar 2007.Et she does well, the sound is clear even in drop C.
I then used this guitar as a fan of Santana, and my god, what sustainnn, it has a exellent character with the volume knob in the middle with a slight distortion and tone to 0, the sound is creamy souait has a treat.

Today, water has flowed under the bridge and I went to something else, something else.

I grant Drop In A and I play mostly Black / Death genre of Behemoth, Dimmu Borgir, Enslaved, Gray, Nargaroth, Immortal, Burzum etc. ...
T is well in this area that this guitar shows its potential. I fear the result because the guitar is really small. I use it with a lunchbox, a pocket metal muff and a delay honner, all in a sound chamber, and gods as it sounds. The microphones can be a lack of definition pouillème when you go to the subwoofer but they are not designed for the origin.

So in summary, it's all good, we quickly forget the price

OVERALL OPINION

I have used it for 3 years and I love this guitar. And I only thing I regret (and yes it is a strange thing ..) it only has 6 strings and I really prefer the 7 strings. I look forward to the day or will the Iceman Ibanez 7 string with but hey .. Tomorrow is not yesterday.

Extras:

Ergonomics
Lutherie
Price
His

Cons:

I had a microphone in my failure to finish binding (less than a millimeter, I quibble)
I also have a tiny hole strange qu'inexpliqué on the 17th fret.
I probably would do this election if it existed in 7 strings, and if not too bad, yes I rachètrai
