In which country was it made? (USA, Japan, Mexico, France ...)

Made in Japan (Fujigen) My model date of January 2003
How many frets, what kind of microphone and their configuration?

Pickups and rather typical metal such records, more or less versatile, micro center has no potato at all: Config MSM
What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?

The bridge is a Floyd Rose type: Edge Pro (Ibanez) perfect, very good performance of the agreement, once fully settled (mine took several months and still holds the road)
What are the settings (volume, tone, micro switch ...)?

1Volume 1ton Switch 5 positions
What kind of stick?

The neck is a wizard prestige among Ibanez, fine, flat, extremely fast

UTILIZATION

The handle is it nice?

THE best round I've ever played on, perfect, very good grip ...
Access to acute (last string) Is it easy?

It is cut to no difficulty getting the highest notes.
Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?

The guitar is very light, very good decision as standing than sitting, the interface is very well done.

Do you get a good sound easy? ...

You find it pretty quickly, groping with the knobs and the selector, the rest is, of course, the amp used

SOUNDS

Are they suitable for your style of music?

It is really versatile mics once settled to his liking, you can play everything, it provides clear sound perfectly, except the middle pickup, very feeble and without heat.
With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?

I play a Line 6 Spider III (30 watt) by adding a slight delay, the sound is just perfect (my opinion).

What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?

It depends, everyone sees her in her own way, I find the bridge pickup slightly noisy when playing a lot in acute, otherwise the sound is warm enough by using the neck pickup and you get a great sound when the switch is on + central bridge.
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?

I love the neck pickup, and especially the bridge, the middle pickup in turn is good only when it is combined with the other two, especially with the bridge.

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it?

I use it since January (2009)
What thing do you like most/least about it?

The handle, and Floyd, both are perfect, the pickups require a change with time.

Did you try many other models before getting this one?

I stayed with Ibanez, but trying the 1570 350 370 2550 E (not the Z) I really liked.
What is your opinion about the value for the price?

Qulités for this guitar, the price is worth it (around 1000 €) except that it may require (depending on the purchaser) a change of pickups.

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...

Without hesitation!
