    SOUNDS

    Plutt I play rock / blues / grunge I stroll between these styles and thus between the microphones! The pickups are low for beginners correct me with the time I changed twice a Seymour Duncan SH4 and dernirement I also changed the neck pickup DiMarzio DP404 by! Moreover, it passed into the hands of a luthier for a full refretage and rglage!
    I play with a VOX AC15CC1X trs and rendering is good but I used to play beginners with a little laney 15watts and I've always really struck her.
    To be simple with basic microphones I played with the dual mainly for distortion and over time I "Discoveries" both simple! (Up on lost! No!) And really gives her a simple and sparkling with good sound saturated with the double!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Premire is my guitar and his heart is that of four years! She was able to evolve with me while taking the road with these changes ... It's a guitar that does advise me by a guitar teacher who tried to other models in the m my price range and advised me and really no regrets!
    It's really the guitar with the report qualitprix / Aesthetics I find the best! It is simple in addition to being signed to a major brand (his account when beginners! ) and the sound is really good and the temsp we never tire of it! The mine has undergone some change as I said at the microphone but refrettage change the volume knob lock bridge, but it is to the fact that it serves me well and therefore wears! but the varnish has good Enco jump out of nowhere! It's really now a guitar center but it sounds really with my mods. This is a guitar that I recommend to beginners who likes to keep their instrument and had to evolve with this one because it lends itself really well!

    - Madine in Indonesia
    - Agathis body.
    - Bolt (maple - 22 frets)
    - Pickups: 1 double / 2 singles (Ibanez)
    - 1 volume selector, a tone selector, 1 pickup selector (5 positions).
    - Floating Vibrato SAT10.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is fine and the handling is quick. Access to treble is rather easy. In terms of ergonomics, there is really little to blame for this guitar. Note that the GSA-60 is also pretty light.

    SOUNDS

    At the level of sound is pretty average. The simple microphones are very limited. The guitar is pretty versatile but never excel.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I own this guitar for 2 ½ years. I almost started with. I was a total novice at the time.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I own this guitar for 2 ½ years. I almost started with. I was a total novice at the time.

    The positive points:
    - The color and look cool
    - The easy handling
    - Price low enough
    Negative points:
    - Microphones means very
    - Vibrato completely invalid (I stuck mine)
    - Violin making poor overall (the guitar goes out of tune)

    Appraisal:
    I do not know what is the value for money because in this range, we should not kid ourselves, it's bound to be very few good guitars. But with experience, I do not think I would do it again maybe not this election. I would probably take much longer to test other models because in hindsight, this guitar is still very average. I still play it and I enjoy, but it is clear that once I have a little money, I turn to something a little more seriously. However, I still have to recognize that ownership level, it was perfect for a beginner like me who might have been discouraged by a handle less accessible ...

    Not bad!

    See more advice.
    Small clarification though: the pickups are Ibanez manufacturing is not great (sounds a bit cold and noise) but it still works fine (finally after a year or two that old!).
    The violin is very good.

    UTILIZATION

    The interface is not bad at that weight is: not too heavy and well balanced.
    Access to acute is easy: the form stratocaster what.
    The sound is not bad, even unplugged it feels it has the build anyway for a guitar of this range and is a good sign.
    The neck is thin and very nice, the paint is just perfect! It allows a good playability and good speed! ... Well this is not my case but I imagine that people who have short fat fingers may be a little less im…

    SOUNDS

    It agreed not hurt my style when I bought it. This was my first guitar and I wanted to play the Hard Rock and Metal and why the bridge humbucker is not bad (especially on offense) now just under two simple but balanced nonetheless.
    I played on a Vox Pathfinder 15W to begin then on a Harley Benton GA15 All tube. With a little overdrive pedal or distortion and a little reverb or a rotary, it does wonders!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I used it for five years (last three years there 's where I played almost no ...) I had only tested the Pacifica 112 in comparison with Yam and the two really were worth so I chose the look!
    I thought it was good value for money at the time I bought it but now it has dropped from 50 € is really a bargain! (To avoid occasions because the microphones do not age well).
    With the experience I would do this choice certainly, I sincerely advise a beginner, I also made a gift to my little brother who starts!

    Good for a beginner guitar

    Ibanez GSA60Published on 12/22/10 at 07:52
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Guitar with a humbucker in the bridge pickup and two singles in the middle and neck. The rest is very standard: volume, tone, selector pickups with 5 positions.

    There is a vibrato ... unfortunately ...

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is really nice for a guitar of this price. The rest of the guitar is very simple config and microphones offer a wide range of sounds.

    However, there is a big black spot on this guitar. To be verified in two other stores, all 3 had the exact same problem with the original settings, the guitar is wrong. And not a little. Almost a half-tone when you go hit the 12th fret! Same thing on the other two guitars. Shame!

    However, there is a big black spot on this guitar. To be verified in two other stores, all 3 had the exact same problem with the original settings, the guitar is wrong. And not a little. Almost a half-tone when you go hit the 12th fret! Same thing on the other two guitars. Shame!

    So of course it will rule. It's also not too difficult when you have a little bottle. A few turns and it rolls. But why is it not settled home? Shame! A beginner does not know it will not play fair.

    So I set it all and the guitar is just now. For the bass E string, the screw vibrato is almost in abutment with the spring bottom.

    And the tremolo is floating ... floating. Better not use it to tune the guitar did not. Better still, make it fixed.

    If the setting was well done in the factory, I put 7 / 10. There, I put 1 / 10.

    SOUNDS

    Once properly adjusted, this guitar to 200 € sounds really good. All types of music can be discussed. The simplest are blown, the double is powerful enough to make distos nice if they have the stuff behind. I see many who say they do not know with metal. They should be the amp or pedal that allows to do ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    If the factory settings were not so badly done, I put a high note this guitar very versatile and easy to play. Unfortunately, I could not advise a beginner not knowing the address. I had to do for my son.

    As it stands after amendment, it is really very good and it will grow. I therefore find this guitar on this point, not the one I originally received. If we compare this guitar to what we could find 20 years ago in this price range, this instrument is wonderful for beginners. Today is a guitar properly (after adjusting ...) amongst many others.
