« Ibanez RG-120 »

This was my first guitar. I didn't know hardly anything about guitars at the time, and I really just got this guitar because it looked kind of cool. I got out to Guitar Center and picked this sucker up for $199.99 new and in black.

I like the wizard neck on this. The body looks pretty sweet too just like all RG's do. The price was nice too. Out of all the guitars that I have bought and played over the years, this one very surprisingly kept up the best and stayed new.

I don't like the tone and volume knobs on it, they are a small factor, but for me they are not. They came loose lately and I do not know how to get them tight again, I have to take them off.

The quality is great on this. The sustain is around a B-, which is pretty good for the price I paid for this geetar. I bang this guitar up pretty bad, I have fallen on it many times, dragged it continuosly on a concrete sidewalk, and I have smashed it once into a drum set (it did not split). It is still sounding well enough to play, and It still looks ok enough.

The bottom line is if you are a beginner player at guitar, I'd say go w/ this guitar, it's cheap and it will do more that what the job asks for.
