Ibanez GAX75

<ul> 22 frets </ul><ul> 2 humbuckers (neck and PSND2 PSND1 at the bridge) </ul><ul> 4 potentiomtres: 2 volumes and 2 tones </ul><ul> 3 switch positions (ie the bridge humbucker, or the two, namely the handle) </ul>

D-tune and that is nothing ...

The neck is thin (as often with Ibanez), but it slides is quite cold ... Finally it works well even when.

UTILIZATION

As I said the handle is cold enough, the varnish is 'neutral' for me drang some level feeling, but it's true it will rev well.
Access in acute is not bad at all, it is easily accessible, but there are always better ... If you have a strap that slides attention! the head tilt when loose guitar.

The sound ...
When I got it, I did not play well and level rglage j'tais anywhere. Since I have a little tinkering on it and it sounds! First of all (when I got it) micro taient down 5cm in the body (I DCON but not far). Premire tape up the humbuckers (and I have down to the level of strings on the neck micro etc to do his own sound and microphones for the 'live' and punchent). Deuxime tape on the bridge humbucker n'tait not located parallel to strings (the guitar looking as if they were playing with) which gave a net its not at all => DIY disassembly of a small pice of wood set into the body to maintain the micro (Obviously you should not want to change the height of the microphone every day). Now the sound is pretty good, I use this guitar with a dsormais bottleneck and strings .11 -. 52 (DGDGBD agreement of the severe acute) the only problem to D-tune ... Infact it is useless even in 15min quibble. settle it if we want to spend you fall E D 1 / 2 ct your ... So I DCID to remove ... I admit I was one of the screws rsist a while but ... Then I punched painted (with a miniature painting) that I searched for 1/2heure in a toy store. Until the all is. Thing that follows, normal, you might say I put my custom .11 strings to play with a bottleneck in the trs "...", ok but the thick rope does not pass through the bridge ... So I put the thing to D-tune for the big rope ...

SOUNDS

Bottleneck in Tweed Fender amp with a Vox AC15 or, blues-rock wholesale ...
The sounds are fat and warm (APRS changes explained above). The grain is spcial in clean, bold and very quickly becomes excellent if you push the gain.

At the same time they are humbuckers, so big distos and other overdrives go in without problem.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a long time, but I stopped when I had other guitars, it is only recently that I resort to play the bottleneck, and it works well.
The report price is quite good quality, if we accept to spend time on it, It is not necessary to change the pickups.
To play the bottleneck, I ask nothing better. I do not know if I would do this choice, but it is not bad.
