MGR/Timothy Orwell « Ibanez ICX-120 »
Published on 02/16/03 at 15:00I purchased this guitar at Guitar Center in Foothill for 249.99 (269.36 with tax). I previously owned a Squier Standard Strat, and that worked fine, but I wanted something more enthralling, something with heavier tone. Then, like a tick to dog, I became attached to this guitar, seeing that it was similar to the one that Daron Malakian uses.(If you don't know who he is, then...uh...I guess you don't know who he is. Guitarist for System of a Down. Yay!!)
The high output pickups are amazing for the price. Great for playing rock and metal. Also, the ICX-120 is equipped with a Wizard II neck wich is low action. This facilitates playing fast power chords a licks. Tunes well. The Iceman has killer looks to go along with its tone too. It's not as cumbersome as a Gibson, but still is not as contoured as a Strat. I love the shape of this guitar, and the chrome hardware is definitely a plus. Oh yea, great bargain!! For being my first Ibanez guitar, i was very pleased.
The strap setup is kind of akward, but thats nothing big if you hold it correctly.. Low E string buzzes, but that can be fixed. Nothing that affects this guitars performance though.
The construction of this guitar is great!! I have not found any flaws on this guitar. Quality is great too, considering the price.
This is a great guitar if you are looking for a real rock guitar with a multitude of capabilities. Evertings great!!I am very pleased with my purchase of this guitar.
