MGR/Pat « Ibanez GSA60 »
Published on 01/02/03 at 15:00I bought this guitar at my local shop(Daddy's Junky Music)for 210 big ones. I bought it because of extensive and consistant good reviews and reccomendations from other players. This is my first guitar.
I like the overall look of the guitar. The S series body and the jewel blue finish look wicked cool! The neck is a bolt on but feels like a million bucks! Nice frets, good for bending. This guitar can obviosly be used for all perpouses but where it shines is with distortion. When i crank it with my peavy 15Gblazer it hauls some serios bottom heavy metal ass! Definitly a guitar for my fellow metal heads!Ummmmmmmmmm......the knobs are compact and durable,and the bridge looks neat(cool chrome color). I also like the fact that going friggin nuts on stage isnt going to be a problem due to the wieght of this guitar.got 6 month warranty i think.
If u so much as touch the wammy bar, this guitar goes out of tune, but i normally dont use it so it's not a big problem. The 2 single coils are pretty noisy. The only other thing is that the strings that came on mine suck! I dont know if they're installed at the factory or what but they are crap! My suggestion, buy some D'addrio's in advance.
pretty durable i guess. i havnt put it to that much abuse. it smudges easily tho, it have to polish constantly to keep it from looking like crap.bolt on neck, agathis body... pretty good construction i suppose.
GOOD JOB IBANEZ! I WOULD SUGGEST THIS GUITAR TO NEBODY WHO IS SERIOUS ENOUGH ABOUT LEARNING THE GUITAR AND IS REALLY GOING TO PLAY. DUE TO THE COST IT MAKES FOR A RATHER EXPENSIVE BEGGINER GUITAR BUT IT IS WORTH EVRY PENNY! GREAT FOR METAL.PLAYS REALLY NICE TOO. AWSOME GUITAR! BUY IT! YOU WILL LOVE IT! IT IS THE SEXIEST AXE THAT HAS EVER BEEN CREATED(cept for santana se's and zakk wyldes les paul)!
