MGR/Greg Day « Ibanez GAX70 »
Published on 12/13/01 at 15:00I picked this up at Rollin's House of Music, which is the only music store in our pathetic town. They had several Ibanez guitars but I picked this one mainly for the price ($200) and the near-SG style top. It is absolutely gorgeous.

It is absolutely gorgeous. The keys hold their tune tight, the back of the next is smooth and helps me glide well. The tone is extremely clear and loud. You could easily practice without an amp!
It would be nice if it came with a pick guard. Other than that, no complaints!
It has a very solid feel to it, rather than assembled pieces. This is because it's so simple and elegant. The front is clean with only 4 knobs, pickups, switch and bridge. It's much lighter than I expected, but it's not cheaply made. The neck does not bend easily, the tuning keys as I said are very tight and hold their position indefinately.
I'm sure those with the money can afford something better, but at $200-$250 you WILL NOT find a better guitar. If you're looking for something like the Gibson SG series style, this is it. It has a very clean sound and is easy for even me to tune it by ear (and I have no sense of pitch whatsoever).
